I know on Windows you can use AutoHotkey[0] to recreate all your OS X keybindings, but I'm not sure about recreating Windows binds on OS X. [0] http://www.autohotkey.com/

You're right, so I fixed my post. What I meant was that my particular cert wasn't compromised. Either way, the StartSSL/Heartbleed fiasco is a real thing and I've added a link to the original discussion I was citing.

StartSSL is pretty harmful as evidenced by the events after Heartbleed. The certificates are free but they charge you to revoke them, and after we found out about Heartbleed and realized a lot of those free certs were compromised a lot of p

I liked the cute flashing of the old rainbow-colored Apple logo at the end, almost as if they were sort of going back to that kind of colorful style with the stickers.

I don't think there was anything wrong with having 100 HIV/AIDS researchers on the same flight. Planes don't just drop out of the sky, flying is statistically the safest form of travel. It might seem stupid in hindsight, bu

Seems like most of your issues with it are to do with the particular implementation, which I can agree with. I'd wager that as the tech gets more mature, a lot of these issues will be solved. VR goggles are like headphones. I might be

It really is. That's why they used Scheme for the Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (SICP). If you look closely at it, you'll notice that they don't actually spend a lot of time teaching you anything about lan

As chc said, I wouldn't apply the same reasoning to elderly people. Also, the issue that most people were bringing up was that children specifically were being exploited, so the point is moot.

A "good kid" who breaks the rules isn't a "good kid", it's a bad one. If the parents never found out about the child spending the money, then the blame would not fall on them. However I don't consider this

If kids outwit their parents and spend their money then that's the parents fault, not the servers. True, the parents can't always be everywhere which is why they need to teach children to act responsibly. If that kid keeps conti
