   I was talking about the protection of your personal image. Let me give you an example: Let's say you are walking down the street, and I take a picture of the street (perfectly legal). But then I crop and zoom the picture to show only your f

   In case someone too naive reads parent, I can count at least 3 crimes there: using someone else's image without consent (is there a name for that?), impersonation, and fraud.

   I thought VirtualBox wasn't meant to be used for production. Is the performance good? Or are you saying that you develop on a remote VM?

   I don't see what phpvirtualbox could be used for. Can you give me an example? How did it simplify your life?

   It was originally called LiveScript if I remember correctly, which was a beautiful and descriptive name. But then they renamed it to JavaScript for some reason.

   I don't know why people hate it, I love it. It gives me so much more visual space. For example, with Unity I was able to start using Virtualbox VM's maximized instead of full screen, which is so much more comfortable. The host has the sideb

    I know thanks, but I'm avoiding Ubuntu > 12.04 until they remove the crapware they added.

    I'll take this chance to recommend the following linux distributions to those non-sysadmins who are wondering which one they can try out: - Fedora 17 with Gnome. Out of the box it offers all kinds of installation options, like the one I alw

    Let me guess, you have an engineering degree and think you have studied more than any developer.

    Have you considered staying here just to see what happens next in the world? To me, it's kind of like a movie that I can't (don't want to) stop watching, even if I'm falling asleep and want to go to bed. I'm not sure it will end before I di

    This is where interfaces come in, in OOP. Too bad Ruby does not have interfaces, and more importantly, Ruby people don't really understand interfaces and say they don't need them. And then they dare mock PHP, lol.

    Same with Symfony2. All of its components are decoupled and can be used as standalone libraries. They even have their own separate docs.

    I do not know there isn't free will, but I know there is nothing that suggests there is, other than this strong feeling we seem to have, which can't be trusted. So far, the universe seems to be deterministic, and our choices seem to be the

    > That's frightening, but freedom is always a little bit frightening On the other hand, there is no evidence for the existence of free will. So we are just a part of the universe that has become conscious, aware of itself. But we can't

    Those are programs, not services. Dropbox is a great service (client + server) for syncing your files. There is no other simple option that "just works". So my choice is Dropbox + encfs (to encrypt everything). But I also keep another local

    This is link bait. Where is the stored procedure and ORM again? Of course you will be vulnerable if you do the query concatenation yourself!
