Putting even the most secure and resilient backdoor should be considered a failure of freedom, privacy, and politics. At the end of the day backdooring encryption does nothing but weaken everyone's security without actually helping int

I'll be interested to see how they prevent theft of their source. It doesn't take long to get around obfuscation and such. If a person takes their HTML libs and slightly modifies the code and releases as an open source alternati

Spam in your e-mail that is slightly annoying but not terribly terrible outside of excess bit and bytes on the net... Senate gets involved. Spam in your real mail box which even at a quick glace effects: - waste management resources - recyc

Serious question. Why? For what exactly? How do you put up with that UI?

I think the "Dark" in "Dark Mail Alliance" is meant more in the sense that it's "off the grid" of NSA spying capabilities, not that it's meant to be used for nefarious purposes.

I was recently looking into some prebuilt libs for emoji support on web. One of them had a sprite, the other used data URI's in all of the background-image:url() parts of their core CSS. The sprite was crunched down to about 500k aft

seems like it essentially keeps data stored by catching data from ICMP (ping) packets, rewrapping them in another ping packet and shoving them back on the network. Think of it kind of like network RAM, the data isn't stored anywhere pe

Maybe the happy medium is cutting the labels out of the deal, allowing artists to self publish on the platform and see larger cuts of the proceeds for their contribution to the network. $500/m and $1/bn aren't exactly chump

Hopefully their talk will be replaced with a Q&A session with NSA reps.

In some breathing exercises I've done as part of a self defense and training course we focused a lot on breathing, especially controlled breathing under very stressful situations. We'd spend good portions of the glass matching br

From 4 minutes to instantly? I would say anything under a few seconds is feasible so long as it's easy to use.

There are also learning disabilities. I've struggled with Math my entire life, from simple arithmetic in elementary school all they way up into high school mathematics. I believe I suffer from "math anxiety", although I've never been diag

README files have been .txt for years... the only time I would expect an extension on one is if it's NOT a .txt file. If you're a novice programmer and you're working with a library that has a README file you'll only be confused 1 time, aft

I think the Dorner thing has some factors you're not quite taking into account. 1. He was a trained professional 2. He knew their hand, their next move even 3. He was an outed cop on a rampage based on inequality in the ranks of the LAPD I

We can, it's just a little more tricky... example being while looking up plane ticket information for an S.O. I'm usually her "personal assistant".

That is a reality that I guess I just naively assumed wasn't possible. This bit really kind of shook me. I've always thought of terrorism much like the author and the aforementioned poster you're replying to, a seemingly random and rare e

I tried explaining this to someone earlier... apparently it's not a numbers game because of assumed risk. There is little to no risk to watching a marathon, whereas living in Iraq or speeding on the highway there is implied risk. I'm not t

Feeling bad about having a legitimate stance in the face of a tragedy isn't cause for self censorship. It might be social pariahism, but it's not cause enough for one to bite their tongue.

One could say the same thing about the Amazon experience, or the ROM community with projects like MIUI. As far as I'm concerned it's healthy for the mobile eco system and in essence is exactly why the Android OS was built the way it was.

Well for one, I shouldn't need to. My account is healthy and in good standing across every other line of Amazon products. The ONLY service I use it for is currently KickStarter. To top it all off, I really don't care all that much. I just t

I'm honestly not sure I can answer that. I could argue either direction. I think it boils down to how important the functionality is to your application. It seems like risky business to rely on a single third party for mission critical c
