If you're near a University, check out their library. Most of the time they'll have a cafe, guest wifi, and a reasonable amount of white noise for a library.

It's not _our_ job to enforce the NDA between Apple and other people, no, but we can certainly call out people for breaking their contract. The more people start ignoring their agreements, the closer Apple might get to canning their wh

How is this any different than hosting your own federated OpenID service? Hell, I'm basically doing this already with XMPP, Email and a blog, but not OpenID because it's not as prevalent as it could be. This is already a solved pr

True. In a perfect scenario I would rather the NSA not store my communications at all, and have them no reason to even look at me to assume I am either good or bad. But, unfortunately, looking at the absolute pushback from congress and the

You're kind of stretching the truth here. There really isn't a limit as to how much explosive material can be contained in a stationary "bomb" before it's considered a WMD because the definition itself takes in account intention of use. The

Their company didn't go out of business. He even states so fairly clearly in the article. He runs a marketing company. I'm fairly certain marketing can still operate successfully using "old" technologies like Email, Twitter and the Web.
