I thought that "Richard Feinman" was just a misspelling of Richard Feynman, then I noticed the dates. That would be just like him to author something like this though.

For ports, maybe--because there's a limited range of possibilities--but by that logic, all DNS servers should allow zone transfers.

More restrictive free plan, and a monthly fee for the basic plan. Back to AWS!

The sad thing is that most people who were previously unfamiliar with LastPass probably won't dare to try it out now. That's the kind of press LastPass just didn't deserve.

The official Python, http://docs.python.org/tutorial/ , written by Guido van Rossum himself, is one of the most concise introductions to Python I've read. Just skip the first few chapters. Other good books are: * Learn Python the Hard Way

Use TrueCrypt on Dropbox: http://www.truecrypt.org/ IMO, you should use this on any cloud disk service, no matter what their policies might be. Companies are always subject to their countries' laws. The good thing about Dropbox in this re

Just to clarify, I'm not talking about event-driven programming, errbacks and callbacks, but rather how they've done all of the abstraction of the different protocols and subsystems. It's one of the few times where I've considered inheritan

You're right, Nginx is great too. (I'm not familiar with the OpenBSD source, but it looks good.) I probably prefer Nginx to SQLite, but I think that's mostly personal preference -- I don't like excessive in-source documentation.

I think a very good example of when OOP is genuinely useful and desirable is the Twisted Networking Engine: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/browser/trunk/twisted

Wonder why people are downvoting this. SHA-1 being insecure is not something that is up for debate -- it is fact: "SHA-1 is the most widely used of the existing SHA hash functions, and is employed in several widely-used security application

SHA-1 is insecure. Use SHA-256 or SHA-512.

It's much easier when it's just another IP address! :) And yeah, the reason something like AppEngine or Django wouldn't work is that they, by default, bind only to loopback/127.0.0.1, and are only accessible from the host on which they're r

Just switch to Bridged networking in the VM and don't care about port mapping at all? (It will have its own IP.)

Wow. What a spamblog. Not even the domain name is spelled correctly. The infographic was blatantly stolen from http://blog.geekaphone.com/2011/03/21/iphone-worlds-most-pop...

Yeah, you're right. And it was only "like". "uhm", "uhh", "like", and "basically" can get pretty bad sometimes.

Great talk. I didn't, like, like the excessive "like" in the beginning, but it got better :)

The author should get over himself. Everything is not about the US, and that map is pure fear-mongering based on nothing resembling facts.
