Bin blobs, no dev accountability, no community input.

Indeed. This title should properly reflect that Sony is responsible.

It's not, that's why it's suspicious. Moreover, nobody has been able to replicate the binary blobs they post for download from source.

I like the idea of auditing TrueCrypt, but I don't see the rationale. Spend the time having everyone transition to GPG (or similar.) TrueCrypt will never be secure.

The problem is overstated, but using := (or ->, or whatever) for assignment and = for comparison hasn't ever seemed like a bad idea.

"Java is dying" is wishful thinking. It's not the case, but we can only hope it will be. Currently, it does a good job of marketing to developers too good for Ruby and Python and not good enough for C.

I suspect it's because I use FileVault, but I use full-disk encryption via LUKS on Arch as well.

I have an pretty standard Arch Linux installation with an SSD and my boot time is 1.5 seconds. My MacBook with an SSD takes nearly a minute.

Awesome has a builtin window layout that I think you'd like: it has one program take up 80% of the screen in the center, and tiles horizontally the rest behind it. But any WM can do that either by duplicating the layout or, in the cas

No doubt. I've used Arch and awesome for a few months now and it's remarkable. The increase in efficiency and usability is made most apparent when I need to use OS X again. I only started using dmenu yesterday and I've alre

Nothing on tarsnap.com will load for me in Luakit (WebKit) on Arch Linux. Has anybody else had this problem?

This isn't strictly related to this post, but I've always thought that the idea of paying a fee for SSL certificates was a bad one. Time spent buying and setting up an SSL certificate would be better spent making your site availa

Your assumptions are correct!

They recently published an article suggesting people surrepticiously feed animal products to vegans, so I don't read their site anymore. I realize that not everybody will agree with that, but I'm not comfortable giving a site lik

Could somebody post this on pastebin for people who don't like to visit Slate?

"Linux" is quite a misnomer here. None of these are actually in Linux.

If you have the best implementation of that idea, won't you get credit for it anyway? Patents, like everything else designed to inhibit innovation and the flow of ideas, are bad for society.

I don't have any live right now, so you'll need to take my word when I say I'm been using semantic HTML for more than a decade (since I started coding.) My rules are no divs, no spans, no imgs (unless the image is part of th

I was honestly a little baffled to come into this thread and discover people were having trouble with semantic HTML. It's not hard to use, you just need to be inventive with your CSS. A page without divs, spans, strongs and bigs shou

Do you really believe anything you just said? Apple is cooperating with the NSA in every way, but in this one case they care about user security?

pv reads content from a file by default, so that can actually be reduced further to: pv "$1" > "$2"

It looks unusual but I don't think many people care as much about the aesthetics of their cable connectors as the author does.
