Does your mapping work well across most/all applications? I've tried mapping via keybindings file and messed up my account (this is snowlepord)

I'm curious - even if you have a domain that points to tumblr via A records (as detailed http://www.tumblr.com/docs/custom_domains ) then you are still at the mercy of tumblr...aren't you? I suppose that the upside of using your domain is

Well - he is human though he can have a new site now called "backup horrors". All kidding aside - this is horrible. How many people validate their backups on a regular basis? (even once a year)

The barn door was closed with this act until 1999 when it was repealed. How is that "closing the barn door after the horse has already gotten out"?

I heard about Glass-Steagall last month on NPR via Robert Reich ( http://marketplace.publicradio.org//display/web/2009/11/04/p... ) It sounds like a better approach then many regulations that lead to very little.

If you are going to be the only programmer on the project then your reasons make sense. However, if you are going to have other people on the projects - then your reasons do not make sense from a longer term point of view. How many lisp p

Forgive my cynicism but when exactly is Perl 6 coming out? Python 3 is already out and it was a concerted effort to clean the things that began to pollute the language. Perl 6 is supposedly doing the same thing...but the need to throw eve

This is the crux of the problem. Physical (and network) access can always break any security because you have a million vectors of attack - physical hardware, software, etc.. . And how secure is your laptop when its in your possession? A

That's a very good point. I went to a state university - for the first 2 years I was a commuter and the last 2 years I stayed at a dorm. It was 2 different worlds. For the first 2 years, I felt it was more a continuation of high school (

Well the Primer will certainly not be a kindle...an apple tablet maybe :-) . All kidding aside, Stephenson's book more focuses on kids without easy access to education getting the power of education. Its more along the OLPC route.

I respect your faith in the general populace but I doubt that they'll become more savvy. Easy usage beats savvy computer practice on any day. Look at Facebook usage and the astounding amount of personal information that people reveal (esp

Couldn't Apple just leverage facebook's 150+ porn patrol employees? All kidding aside - how could you systematically enforce guidelines on applications when the universe of applications is wide open? In other words, there's no baseline so
