I wonder if it's the same talking to a psy as to a relative. It's much less grave, but years talking to various psychologists didn't damp by emotions about my first break-up, especially because they don't want to talk ab

Yes. It's just lock-picking art. I was expecting stories like the organizers finding the party "reversed" (=while organizers are in the main room, most attendants found their way into the backstage) or the parking emptied of

Ubuntu dropped the ergonomic Gnome to whip us with their own custom, unpolished Unity. Now they're doing it all over again with Mir, while Wayland could be a Linux standard. Sounds like IE all over again. That gives me trust issues wit

Every city in the world believe they're in a housing bubble. People can't just fathom the fact that there are many, many people richer than them, and the fact they can't afford a house is just that they don't earn enough

LetsEncrypt's software is open-source. A commercial CA could use it, remove the limits and add EV if they wanted, then lower their costs to $50 per domain: much lower and much more trustworthy than Symantec...

I wish Google were more serious. A proof of deceptive falsification of certificates by a CA should lead to an immediate distrust in browsers, period. The job is on the side of CA companies to run audits at the extent of possible damages, ju
