I don't know if uBlock works the same way RequestPolicy does, but RP is not a replacement for NoScript. You may want to load images from a host but not allow that host to run Javascript or Flash: https://www.requestpolicy.co

If you are an employer despicable enough to systematically be paying women less just for being women, I don't think another redundant law is going to change your behavior. Women don't earn about 18% less than men (OECD median, 2

Truth be told, I know nothing of CL. I do know quite a bit about Elisp, and since it's not an Elisp-ism, and the CL and Elisp columns share so much identical code (a lot from cl.el), I assumed it was a CL-ism. My bad.

A word of warning for Elisp hackers: the Emacs Lisp part of that resource was written by someone with a CL background. I'm seeing various examples that are not conventional Elisp. For instance, ' is used instead of #' for fun

Perl backticks and system() delegate commands to the system shell, normally sh. On many systems, sh is simply bash in compatibility mode. That's how the attacker gets at the vulnerability.

According to Crockford[0], Netscape called it LiveScript, originally. In their attempt to 'destroy Microsoft', they teamed up with Sun. One of Sun's original goals with Java was making it the client-side scripting language fo

This is just a random thought, but it does occur to me that a lot of effort is expended in discouraging guys from objectifying women, but little to no effort is expended in doing sort of the opposite: encouraging women to objectify guys.
