You're not going to see me using an OS where I have to use a SSH-client written in Javascript where I have to upload my keys to a random site on the internet. By not supporting local applications, lots of the "cloudy" stuff I do, for instan

For Chrome OS to "work" in the enterprise, I suspect you need to have working AD-authentication or the IT-department will make it a no-go. So far my attempts to make Linux do AD-authentication has all been failed and miserable with immense

Your first example will do_something_finally() before returning y and exiting the try-scope and method (unless an error has occurred). Your second example will return y without invoking do_something finally() (unless an error has occurred).

So if the letter was indeed sent to wikileaks, but used as a justification for locking their account, how on earth did the letter end up at Paypal to begin with? This is looking very, very fishy.

I did this as one of my first things when I was learning ASP.NET. Now I absolutely hate it and intend to move to something else, something pre-built, something which I don't have to maintain. That said: I don't regret building it as it ta

Very interesting stuff. Is the source for the various bots posted anywhere? Is it even a requirement that you disclose your source or that it will be made public after the results are published? I looked around but couldn't find any obvious

You have Charles Stross' Accelerando which kind of covers this sort of scenario. I'm not 100% enthusiastic about the book, especially how things were rounded up at the end, but that's my usual reaction to books which are very vivid, imagina

In that case you should consider Secuna PSI. It's a lightweight tool which monitors installed software, patchlevels and known vulnerabilities. It's also free as in beer. If updates are available, it will offer direct links to updates which

Trying to improve some scanned forms I have, I got an average of 5 characters per page recognized. Also form formatting recognized as "1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1". I may not rely entirely on google docs for my OCR needs in future ;)

That code reuse doesn't happen is really a myth and where I work, things gets reused a lot. That said, what language to use boils down more to code-maintenance than code-reuse since on .NET code reuse can (and will) happen transparently acr
