Additionally you could also use something like fwknop[1]. It opens the ssh port for your ip when you need it and closes it after a preset time has passed. [1] http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/docs/faq.html#fwknop

I think it's dangerous to go on record beforehand claiming something is "bullshit". If I've learned anything over the last view days it's that reports like these should be taken seriously and no stone should be left

Link removal requests can also be malicious. A blackhat seo will check his competitors domain to see if there's a spf record, if they're signing their mail, and if there's a catch-all (simply by checking if random mail is accepted). If ther

If you have the icons as svg you could also try raphaeljs [1][2]. It'll render the svg path as svg on most modern browsers and as vml on older IE browsers (ie6+). The added benefit is that raphael also does animations which enables you to a

Besides the regular Qrcode there's also Mirco Qrcode[1]. Also the Reed–Solomon error correction in qrcodes take up a lot of datablocks. If a new standardisation for mirco qrcodes would allow for a version without error correction you could

Another good feature I didn't see mentioned is haxes' quick memory access. http://haxe.org/api/flash/memory It's basically an api for the opcodes which adobe alchemy used if you compiled c/c++ to flash. More on it here http://ncannasse.f

Why is that? Flash seems pretty logical to me. If you were giving the choice to either design with a single language that compiles to bytecode and runs in a vm(jit), or an array of interpretive scripts that's heavily submitted to fragmentat

HaXe and HaXeNME come pretty close. Especially NME with which you can create GUIs and games compile to c++, compile to html5 using jeash, create native phone apps, and compile SWFs all from the same code. With HaXe itself the code usually n

In my opinion it's fine the way it is. HN comments are compact and only separated by the bare minimum, which makes for easy and fast reading. Stackoverflow doesn't digest that well for me because it has a lot of unnecessary padding, boxes,
