Could you explain why? I have quite a bit of experience with Z80 and x86 (16bit) assembly. I remember that I've tried to learn 6502 many years ago but lost interest after a while. I remember that 6502 didn't feel superior to me th

Newsletter is not connecting your subscribers together - add that and you have good old mailing list. One of my friends created such a mailing list for our circle of friends some time ago but it didn't win with the Facebook.

But they did not use any backdoor. Etchalon is right - if they had to access file system how should they do that if it was encrypted? And you were in control of the situation - next time change the password to temporary one before handing i

Having GC does not mean that you need to surrender all of control. You just need to know which operations are allocating memory (consing) and which are destructive. In Common Lisp you often have both variants available - like reverse &

You can't do 2-factor authentication with applications that don't support it. You can't do it with, for example, IMAP, period. I am not sure about that at all. For imap for example you could be required to submit your password followed by

Could someone explain how the 'call/cc in javascript' from the article is supposed to be used? function callcc (f,cc) { f(function(x,k) { cc(x) },cc); }
