Very cool idea. The idea of automatically verifying public keys over publicly accessible and known channels is great. This is more or less the manual process I follow when I want to verify a key remotely. Looking forward to seeing where thi

Unfortunately, even in programming, there are fields where programmers can't even share their work with many other programmers they know. Responses like: "Oh that's low-level x86 assembly, I don't touch that stuff."

There's been plenty of proposed proofs on both sides, however there has been little agreement on whether these proofs are indeed correct. See http://www.win.tue.nl/~gwoegi/P-versus-NP.htm for more links.

I beg to differ. Why should we describe a visual artifact using tools that are suited to describe logic and algorithms? Now, if you are wanting a DSL to describe HOW to make the visual artifact, that's one thing. However, the way art i

Analyzing changesets is a much more manageable process than an initial audit, so keeping this going via community involvement might be quite possible.

But as I recall, the gov't can use eminent domain to give land to a private entity if they're in favor of the idea for the "public good." Or am I way off base here...?

Managing register allocation by hand is unlikely to provide significant speedups, considering that modern register allocators are "pretty good." However, if you are wanting to optimize for SIMD, this can be easily done with vector

Really HN? I would make the case that price gouging occurs when your customers are in a dire situation due to no fault of their own, and other options are limited. While this make make a cheap buck, in the long run, fostering good relations

These icons are perfect for just that, making the most important thing on the page pop. The usual way we see this is a "call to action" button, but I think these sort of high-quality SVG buttons with just a bit of movement may do the same j

Now if we can only get semi-stable, long-term graphics driver support for Linux to be able to play these games. I think there may be light at the end of that tunnel, since hardware vendors seem to be providing more support for Linux now.

Perhaps this is just me (design tends to be a pretty subjective thing), but I fail to see why it looks terrible. Multi-window makes sense for a small chat window on top of other applications. While the chat window itself could use a little

I would draw a parallel between this notation and guitar tablature. Unfortunately, all professional guitarists (and especially classical guitarists) that I know prefer traditional notation to tab. I personally find tab terribly hard to pars

EA has a LOT of money to throw at games. They're one of the few publishers that can play at that level and put out blockbuster, ridiculous budget games. People like the polish and shine of big-budget games, some of which are genuinely not p

Can they do better? If so, why aren't they, and how do they propose to do so? Nice to see they realize that everyone hates them... Now if only they'd provide something other than useless rhetorical spin. Good example of how NOT to run a com

Out of curiosity, anyone have a good alternative? I'd like to investigate alternative comment boxes for static content (even if I have to host them elsewhere myself, eg. open source solutions).
