My job is just to backport the fixes into an olde kernel version, but I'm not pissed off :p I don't believe in secrets not leaking. The more parties you tell a secret, the sooner it will leak. And if it had gotten leaked, I'd

I currently live in Matsue. When I tell people I am a programmer, even decidedly non-computer people will ask "Ruby?" They have Ruby-branded instant ramen in souvenir shops (with the proceeds going to the/some Ruby associatio

OAuth 1.0 is often implemented somewhat wrong too. I've only worked with OAuth 1.0 so I can't speak for 2.0, but the I think main problem is that social networks don't 100% stick to the specification, so you first have to fig
