What about discovering that you, a young girl, have been seen naked on your webcam? Can you imagine what that can do to the mind of a child/young adult? Imagine all the troubles that can bring to a human mind, and imagine if that mind can a

It is the perpetrator's term. At the end of the article: > prepare to be sold or traded to the kind of person who enters forums to ask, "Can I get some slaves for my rat please?"

I could be a basic user that knows how to avoid clicking strange links to avoid email viruses. I could know enough to notice the URL, but not enough to know that the domain hp.com is what really counts.

If I didn't know my computer stuff, I would say it's a virus website. What's that h30499? www3? Why not communities.hp.com? (this actually redirects to h30507.www3.hp.com). h30500 asks for httpauth. It's just ugly, is it not?

The difference is that, using public-private key cryptography, an evil merchant can't, in any way, copy my european card. I can be sure that my CC number will not be stored.

Looks good, but do people really work on those "work pods" (for example, the red 'e' with the guy in a laptop)? Maybe a soft-skilled employee could (text writing, excel crunching, etc), but what about the developers at google? I couldn't le

But in this case, Heather didn't ask those guys to use her code. They just decided to have some fun at some code totally unrelated to them. Not even explaining what's so funny. In that pull request Linus actually explains quite extensively

"C is a weak, statically typed language" Wouldn't that imply that a variable of one type could be coerced into another type? I would say C is strong typed...

I don't have the best knowledge on DBs, but why would you use more than one of the same "tech"/paradigm? Why postgreSQL and MySQL? Don't they work similarly? Or is it because you use postgreSQL for the things it is better than MySQL, and

If you have an email A forwarding to B, on B there will be a "Delivered-To: B", I think. I never got to understand where on the email source I can find if it was to A or B.
