This is just another example of someone beating a dead horse (which has already been beaten) for page views. Next week we'll have another "bash php" post, and the week after that another. I wish people spent as much time creating new things

Thanks, I had a feeling it would be something like this. Looking it over that case clearly doesn't apply to this situation- the defendant there plead guilty , so it was already known that the money was illegitimately earned doing criminal

No, this guy quoting things is wrong. In the case he's referring to the defendant plea bargained and admitted guilt. They said he couldn't use the money, because it was an established fact (to which he himself confessed) that it was illegal

The point was that there are so many reasons. Besides climate change a number of issues were brought up such as energy security, conservation, and nationalism. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of books that discuss these reasons. Should t

What SCOTUS case are you referring to, and quoting from?

You're going to feel so weird saying that in 50 years.

This to me is a server side issue- but that doesn't necessarily mean it's on the app developer. The behavior you're talking about can be set most servers directly, by adding the "X-Frame-Options" header into every request by default. Then e

To prove a point- the current system of law is completely broken when it comes to dealing with malicious software. Law enforcement is a joke, to the point where reporting a botnet c&c located right in the US to the FBI will result in a

That is certainly the hard part, but technology like kickstarter is still helping to make it easier. I don't think it's really fair to judge by extremes- they show what is possible, but not what is typical- but there are artists who are hap

His javascript minifier 'jsmin' was causing projects to get removed from Google Code and other places that only host open source code, so I emailed Mr. Crockford to ask if I could get the same extension he gave to IBM. His response was less

>only on, through or by means of the Site, Application or Services. That is the key line everyone is skipping over. It limits the rest of the clause quite a bit.

homokov could have handled this much better than he did, and I don't think anyone is arguing against that. He did break the terms of the service, and he did it by committing to an active project rather than just creating a dummy account for

While they may erase "IP information", that doesn't mean they've erased the aggregate data. They could easily take a list of the actual domains and figure out how popular they are in various regions based off of the dns queries again them.

Apple already has a prompt before allowing applications access to your location- the address book seems just as important.

The data liberation thing is about adding data to Google, or copying the data out of Google so other services can use it. I may be wrong, but I have not seen anything that says you can use it to actually delete the information from Google's

Perhaps I should have gone into more detail, but I disagree that the analogy doesn't hold. What tobtoh described is a genre- it may be a shitty one, but it's still simply a genre. There are different game mechanics, goals, art work and so o

The Data Liberation program is all about being able to move your data from google to anywhere else. It has nothing to do with privacy.

I'd agree with you if they were just similar, but the mechanics are the exact same- every aspect of it. There's a difference between "standing on the shoulders of giants" and flat out cloning something- with the first you take an idea, impr

That may be true for an application with a constant load, but applications with a less balanced load have to provision for their peaks. My company (Malwarebytes) has very irregular traffic (at the hour mark we get very big spikes, but only

I think the point is that there is some ambiguity, and that it's a fairly easy to solve problem. Yeah, I understand it's not the end of the world or really likely to cause serious confusion, but I don't see any downside in showing the subdo

Well, lastpass doesn't store the passwords on its servers in a way that they could just change. From my understanding the database is only decrypted on the client machines when the master password is entered. Still, the idea of a service fo

A tablet is, by definition, a minimalistic device. Concepts like "rounded borders" have been used for quite a bit longer than tablets, and applying a basic design principal should hardly be considered infringing. No one is going to buy a Sa

If a large enough group of tor servers resides on Amazon's network what is going to keep Amazon (or the government) from being able to reverse the anonymization? Isn't this exactly why Tor asks people hosting multiple machines to label them
