From the law quoted in the article, wouldn't it be illegal to simply make a course about computer security? The teacher willfully (and knowingly) teaches the student about "possible means of access to a protected computer." N

HTML5 is a mix of XHTML and HTML4, but with new features. Its syntax ressemble more XHTML than HTML and as thus it is more XML compliant, although you can ignore strict syntax [0]. HTML5 is both XHTML and HTML4 alike, so it is no surprise t

I agree partially with >But why am I signing up for your service? That has nothing to do with what I want from your app. That just gets in the way of using your app. It would be cool to have an explanation of what signing up does (for no

XHTML was an overall improvement to HTML imo. If you're going to use XML, at least be consistent with this choice. HTML was not, XHTML is.

If you are going to expect being compensated, why are you making free software to start with? Why not make a paid one instead?

What you say is false. Science is all about trust. There is way too much fraud being done just for quick fame. Who wrote those research paper you take for granted, scientists? Are you saying that these papers are always right in what they a

There is no sleep call that i know of in javascript, but you are right it depends on the language and its implementation of sleep. Edit: although you could emulate a sleep call by setting a (pediodic) timeout

You can always make a function that sync all async operations: sleep until a global variable is changed by the callback. A pain, but still not that bad.

Imo I don't think a distinction should be made, as it is sure to be biased. What is called "anti-semitic" should just be where in belongs, as free speech.

I agree with not using drugs except if necessary (i.e. not a simple cold). Also, I hate when an article has the word "scientists" with the quoted work "linked". Looks too much like click baiting.

People should stop enlarging the scope of freedom this much. If you want more choices of ads, you just have to look for it. Nithing prevents you from CHOOSING to see more ads. There is a limited number of ads a website can show you, if it i

I understand that it doesn't cost much to warn people, I was just stating my disliking of it, not asking for them to be removed. I believe humans should be able to judge things on their own and to handle their emotions at the very leas

I don't think your argument is valid. If you market your software as free, then it should be. You can't just fill the computer of the person with trash without asking just because "but I have to be paid!!!!". Now, some o

Agreed with you. If a comment is utterly useless, it can always be flagged. Downvoting shouldn't be implemented the way it is, as it does not explain why the comment is downvoted and as it hides the comment by graying it, hiding unpopu

Your proposition makes no sense, simple warning someone would offend them that way. I relate to the OP that trigger warnings are an insult to my intelligence. If such a thing offends me, I should be able to judge it by myself or stop readin

The code needed to track the error is slightly bigger if you need to know what causes the error. Stating what is wrong at login has no apparent added benefit and has a slight disadvantage.

I don't think that we have the right to play god on people's life. What I was saying is very different, I am saying that, as a society, it is peculiar that we would choose to support those people. Ignoring them is not the same a
