"The backdoor that was created through one of our partners, MongoHQ who are managing our database." Looks like the database is managed by MongoHQ. That's what OP is talking about.

You can verify the fingerprint, can't you? Not that I always do it (even is just the "first time", as you said), but IMHO the SSH model is definitely better than a central authority you have to pay to get your certificate s

I don't think so because it is really easy to install Python 2 and have both versions installed. I'm already doing that, the difference is that "python" for me is Python 2 and I have to run "python3" to use P

Me too. ARJ was easier to use IIRC, specially with muli-volume archives (frequent if you had to split an archive into several diskettes). I used ARJ mostly, until RAR came in, of course ;)

You need to root the device exploiting a vulnerability (CVE-2013-2094 if I'm not mistaken). ZTE "Open" is not that open I'm afraid. EDIT: no longer true, ZTE enabled "fastboot".

This is the best I got: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/975002 I know ZTE Open offered in Spain (via Movistar) got an OTA v1.1 upgrade some days ago (some users are reporting problems). So... hopefully

ZTE Open is still 1.0.1, LG Fireweb runs Firefox OS 1.1. If you can get a Fireweb, don't waste your time with the ZTE.

IPv6 behaviour seems to be the same: "ping6 ::" pings to ::1: (localhost). This is intriguing, really :) EDIT: oh, you already pointed to the RFC :)

I don't know about the OP, but in Ubuntu Precise "ping 0" pings to 127.0.0.1. I can't explain why.

I guess the price is already quite low and at some point the cost of the power, space, etc would be higher than the rental price. Do you want a new new server or a server that is 2+ years old and it's reaching its end of life? I met pe

I would use JSON. I'm using python-memcached in a project and I was hitting memcache object size limit (python-memcached uses pickle by default). I wrote two simple functions to serialize/unserialize to/from JSON and compress

Thanks, that's appreciated. Not because the boobs but because TPB is blocked by some^W UK Internet providers (including mine).

Not enough if you ask me. As other commenter said, too many JS-WTFs remain.

Well, the like/dislike are totally subjective things. I can't tell if I like or dislike most of the languages of the list because I don't use them or, in some cases, I don't use them enough to have a strong opinion.

"Once your phone has fastboot enabled, you will then be able to build and install new Firefox OS/B2G builds on it [...]". Please, make ZTE to push updates or at least provide a binary build to download and install.

It feels half-cooked both because of missing features and bugs. I can understand some of the missing features (such as can't upload files, no clipboard, the keyboard is small and irresponsible or only en_US available), but some bugs ar

I'd love to get FFOS updates in my ZTE Open because 1.0.1 feels more like a dev preview than an end user product, to the point that it is almost useless as a smartphone. I can see the potential, but I'm not buying a new device jus

You're probably right but I can't help thinking that when the time comes and I need a new job they're not going to be THAT useful because most of them are really inefficient/incompetent. I've been collecting a lis

I guess LinkedIn messages are easier for lazy/busy people that need to contact lots of people. If I get a direct email that is definitely not based on a template means that that person a) found my mail and b) spent some time on the pro

That's interesting. To me looks like almost 100% of the time LinkedIn messages are misdirected and too close to be spam that I almost never bother to reply if I'm not genuinely interested. When I get a proper email directly to m

Thunderbird 24.0 was released in September: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/24.0/releasenotes/ I don't know if it is just in "maintenance mode", but it seems still alive.

It is a script that you can audit if you don't pipe it straight away into bash (with sudo!). I don't know Sealion and they can be amazing and all, so don't get this comment wrong. If they want to support Linux systems properl

I tried hard until 3.4.2, then I stopped trying and started running the "fallback mode". Now I'm happy. Now I understand that trying to use it when it forces you to change your workflow is a terrible idea. I needed months

Defaulting to "no" would be better, but I can't fully agree with you in the "innocent" part because the real problem are users that can't use a computer, and this is just a tiny annoyance compared to other thin

It always puzzles me that most people think that only Armstrong and Aldrin went to the Moon, although 12 men have walked on its surface. May be it's me but I couldn't help thinking that the title of this article seems to help spre

I'm using DejaVu Sans Mono and for me it looks cleaner on 11pt than Ubuntu Mono, but you're right: that article is amazing. I'm surprised how close is DejaVu Sans Mono to Source Code Pro.

You asked about "use encryption" but looks like you refer to communications only, otherwise disk encryption is missing. I self-host my mail and use GPG eventually, and all the disks of my devices containing private information are

Well, from the point of view of the user it is happening now. Just check all the crapware that comes "by default" with any Windows machine (Dell, I'm looking at you).
