You don't really mean self-signed, do you? I'm a doctor. Here's my diploma. I created and signed it myself. But trust me, I really am a doctor. I hope you really meant that you use an internal CA that issues certs and th

I like the idea of self-government and I'd like to extend the concept a bit further. We should be seeking to self-govern in such a way that the government is not necessary.

How do you defend yourself against a rogue government? Furthermore, who gets to define when a government becomes rogue? All definitions aside, how do you defend yourself from a large, well-funded organization that's determined to do

What about circle strafing a moving target while jumping/ducking and shooting? For me, that takes 3 simultaneous inputs on my left hand and 3 on my right hand. On each hand, some of those inputs vary or alternate. I can't speak

It looks like it could work. I think I'd accidentally press the buttons on the back, though. Does anyone remember the SpaceOrb 360 [1]? I had one for a little while but returned it because it just didn't work as well for me as

Are you saying that you'd ignore all financial incentive to protect your assets and rely on the government to protect you? We already know how well that works. It doesn't! I'm not against the AG investigating and prosecuti

It also demonstrates SEO value but it's not representative of all SEO. That same stands for online reviews: many are worthless but some of them are not.

If a job is so bad that I see no recourse other than leaving, two weeks notice isn't going to happen. I'll leave whenever I feel like it and I won't tell a single soul other than HR as I walk out the door. This is my life a

Gnome (Bastien), please accept my middle click. How long will it be before someone forks gnome just to get X paste behavior back? I hope they call it Troll.

I'm pretty sure that this published story isn't to advertise the author's own stupidity. I believe it is the only way he can communicate what happened to certain parties without directly contacting said parties. It lets the

1. Doing everything yourself means knowing how everything works and being able to manage it all. No one knows enough or has enough time to do that properly. You've increased your attack surface all while giving yourself a false sense

So now, projects that need parallel crypto-cracking can use GPGPUs instead of FPGAs. This works with any other strategic GPGPU application as well. The military no longer needs to buy a bunch of Sony gear just for the CPU. Defense contra

My employer's legal department loves BSD and MIT licenses because it's easier to sell software that way. When we need to update or add a new library or application, BSD/MIT licensed software get approved much more quickly.

Recruiters on LinkedIn never want to hire me. They just want to scavenge my connection pool. There's been one exception, Google, and they wanted me to move to California and take a 60% pay cut. LinkedIn lets me see where my coworker

You make some fair points. I don't believe stupid gets constrained by age. In counterpoint I offer the truism, "you don't know what you don't know," using the collective you while referring to someone with a given point of view. A person

Why is it so difficult for the younger folks to concede that older folks have something solely by the virtue of being old? From John Ciardi “About Crows” (Fast & Slow, March 1975, 3): The old crow is getting slow; the young crow is

I absolutely adore FreeBSD. I work in linux these days because it's easier to bundle and distribute an upgradeable (binary distribution) linux appliance. I will run back to FreeBSD as soon as possible.

ADD doesn't mean you can't focus. It just means you usually only focus on things that interest you. At least, until they no longer hold your interest. There is a certain anxiety that comes when you know you have to do something you really

I've judged in several tribunals. While there are reporting options like unskilled player, the tribunal makes it very clear that a player cannot be censured for that. It allows complainers to report, but riot never punishes for it.

Why is making a job obsolete destroying a job? I see it as progress. It frees up a human resource to find a more rewarding opportunity. Any worker(s) made redundant certainly don't feel that way at the time of impact because they get the
