A daemon that blocks the attacker address after a number of wrong attempts is much more secure. IMHO moving SSH to another port is kind of Cargo Cult Security.

I know I should not respond to ad hominem, but here we go. When I was young I used to blame "the right" for every real or imaginary problem in the world. I dreamed of revolution. When you are 20, if you are not socialist you don&#

This thread made me nostalgic. I live in Brazil. I remember when I went to the local university in order to grab a 40+ diskette copy of slackware. A few months later I subscribed to a CDROM compilation (can't recall the name, something

Oh, c'mon. The Lua language is the only relevant software contribution from Brazil that I'm aware of. The guys behind Lua had to invent a language because the country was commercially closed at the time. The program forbidding tec

C'mon, the Latin America's biggest and most populous nation remains a long way behind the OECD average and in most cases lags behind most of its Latin American neighbors. Research in Brazil is a joke, as anything else related to e

There is no privacy in Brazil, you have to put your fingerprints in a database for having an ID card or driver license issued. Biometric access is being enforced for voting and a lot of other trivial citizenship exercises. There is no doubt

For all practical concerns, downloading FOSS in binary form is not that worst compared to source code, unless you are willing to audit thousands of lines of code before compiling (and is competent enough). The exploit can even be hidden int

Not complete underground cities, but there are plenty underground marijuana light-forced gardens out there... Even with panels that change colors (some growers use different wavelengths for vegetative and flowering stages). :-)

Think of it like this: you still have model+controller at the server side (REST interface), the whole HTML+Javascript thing is the view layer. This view layer happens to be modeled using the MVC pattern, which is a pretty smart move if you

I used to love Perl as well, it is amazing for text processing and at the time was the silver tape of Internet. It is pleasant to write, but I can't say the same for reading: sometimes it is hard to understand my own Perl code after un

I would say that about Python, and probably anyone can say the same about his own pet computer language. I like some of the Haskell concepts, and it seems to attract very smart folks that are heavy on math and CS jargon. This reflects on th

Precisely my point: a tool is a tool, you don't marry a hammer and you don't marry your text editor. You can have several hammers in your toolbox, the old hammer will never be jealous from new hammers. You may invest some time

I dated Ember for a while but I ended up married with Angular. Ember is really cute and charming. When it works it is all magic - but when it doesn't it is way harder to figure out what is wrong. So far, Angular seems to have a stronge

In Angular, there is a powerful concept called services. Services are used when you need to share data between controllers, like your example. Angular services are guaranteed to be singletons, but instead of passing references around, you u

My personal experience is the opposite. I tried Ember first. Got excited replicating the sample blog app, but got stuck trying a simple task: show the most recent post by default (see this bug: https://github.com/emberjs

"Micro Positions" are a known scheme to hire foreign workers under H-1B visas. The employer must, prior to filing the H-1B petition, take good-faith steps to recruit US workers for the position for which the H-1B worker is sought. For examp
