The paper is here, I think: http://ftp.cse.sc.edu/reports/drafts/2010-002-tpms.pdf (I didn't see a link in the article)

I assume that your centralized repository of (email, id, provider) tuples wouldn't just spill out all of its contents to the world, preventing mass email harvesting. Instead, it would reply with the appropriate (email, id, provider) tuple w

I like the protocol-agnostic (and locally-stored) connection information, but I don't like the fact that I (I'm assuming) have to manually synchronize them between my devices -- if I understand right, if I friended someone on my phone, I'd

I think there's value in documenting and discussing this sort of thing. If it won't always happen (or will always happen but is one of those things that earns a degree of passive (or active, depending on the example) condemnation when it do

I'm not really familiar enough with the subject to know whether I should be. If there are any serious studies out there about gender and code quality, I'd love to read them. While gender itself may well be irrelevant when it comes to progra

I'm a gay programmer, and I'm not quite sure how my sexual orientation would affect how I code. If it is any help, most of the people around me seem to think I'm competent enough, at least to the point that they don't complain about what I

The actual report is here: http://cups.cs.cmu.edu/soups/2008/proceedings/p117Falk.pdf I wonder what sort of attack they had in mind to exploit the fact that contact information and security advice was on an insecure page? A man in the mid

First: congratulations on getting far enough to feel comfortable sharing your work with us. What sort of requirements do you have for email addresses? In help (/help.php) you say that users need an email address, but don't really go into sp

I think it is what you make of it (or, as you say, it is largely dependent on the kind of person you are, and your actions). I don't doubt that there are lonely programmers. I think that you'd probably find lonely people for any X that peop

I think the answer kind of depends on the nature of the project. Re-writing something you have now in another language/framework can be (in addition to fun) a great way to learn the new language/framework. If this is just a fun project, wel

FreeBSD (6.3) on one, OpenBSD on another. Both choices were made mostly for the fact that I'm familiar with them, and they seem trustworthy (reliable, lacking gaping security holes out of the box, though I'd hope the latter is the case for
