By making herself look so deplorable it will take the attention away from how prosecutors and the judicial system works and instead focus on how SHE worked as a prosecutor in our judicial system. With as much public outcry as there's been r

bit late on the response but it's a different situation. Pleading the fifth isn't the same as not knowing or forgetting something. Murderers don't bury bodies then when caught say that they know where it's buried but aren't telling. Even

an EFF lawyer talked about this at toorcon last year and said the exact opposite of what you just said. What she basically said was that you can plead the fifth to not give up the password however the court can give you amnesty for whateve

you're absolutely right that it's a spectrum. the myers-briggs assigns you're interovert/extrovert level as two ends of the spectrum. personally i got 99% introvert, 1% extrovert. As for not being able to change however, I don't believe t

well at least we're claiming to be the "united states of" america. those damned australians aren't even trying to be polite about it, claiming the entire continent themselves. those poor new zealanders can't even use the name of their con

the ssl handshake latency isn't why sysadmins don't want to implement everything over https. the reason (or at least 5 years ago when sysadmin was my primary role) is because the additional cpu power it takes to encrypt all the data is hug

"The question of illegal immigrants came up too but if you look you will find that a skilled welder / carpenter / mason has opportunity in Mexico that they don't need to emigrate for, so its not the issue one might suspect." I don't think t

it amazes me how few people who do contract work create a requirement docs. Before you even give the potential client a quote, create a requirement doc of every little feature that will be included in the project. Then show it to the clie

what i've done recently is give a text field a worthless class, then use javascript to change it's class to a display:none. Sure bots may execute the javascript however it causes them to run much slower so I'd think the majority of them ar
