   In case nobody has pointed it out yet. By default, with Ubuntu's dnscrypt-proxy package - the resolver is "cisco". That's right, you're encrypting your DNS traffic just so Cisco can read it... There are alternate re

   I was really hopeful for a ChromeOS competitor. Guess I'll have to wait. Maybe Ubuntu's mobile OS?

   What's unclear is how the BeagleBone Black Wireless compares to the SeeedStudio BeagleBone Green Wireless: https://beagleboard.org/blog/2016-07-07-seeedstudio-beaglebo... It looks like the Green wireless has more

   Interesting to see that "end-to-end crypto" is becoming a frontpage feature for messaging apps.

   Ever since I realized there will be a persistent log of my browsing history maintained by one or more government agencies, I have mentally-marked http as risky. I cannot wait for something like this to happen, and encourage the wider less-i

   Considering the functionality that wasn't reviewed, I don't think it should be advertised as "A". It might be "A" for the expected permissions, but if there's extra permissions which haven't been inve

    This is a wonderful example of NSA meddling. With one hand, Microsoft gives everyone out-of-box encryption, which it can use to demonstrate how well it's protecting consumers. With the other hand, by virtue of a 'feature' to

    I'm happy to see that some new 'modern lisp on x' projects are taking design cues from Clojure (See Rhine and now Pixie).

    There's a disconnect between the people who develop policy, and those who enact it. One group is elected, the other is not.

    So subtlety and obfuscation to make good ideas sound bad (serpent), and bad ideas attractive (in the interest of performance and practicality). So when any standards body recommends a particular cryptographic approach, we should ask why, an

    I've been looking into ocaml, and was wondering what to do once my programs grow beyond a single file. Unfortunately it doesn't have the equivalent of 'lein new' (Clojure tool for creating a new, empty project skeleton),

    To me, this explains why the five eyes nations are pushing for (meta)data retention legislation. It's a condition of participating in the scheme.

    I'm sick of knowing about things and not jumping in early. So rather than brag that I knew about Ethereum before everyone else did, yet not have any, I figured I'd get some to play with.

    Apparently they made the SafeCoin IPO (safecoin being the altcoin/blockchain that powers MaidSafe) available to purchase with both MasterCoin and Bitcoin. Based on exchange rates at the time, it was possible to get more SafeCoins if yo

    MaidSafe sounds intriguing, but the one thing that gives me pause is their licensing page ( http://maidsafe.net/developers-licensing ), which says that any non-GPL MaidSafe codebases requires 1% revenue fee. I still dont know

    I don't know about corrupt and incompetent... maybe under-resourced and apathetic babysitters of a legacy-ridden codebase.

    I looked at this with interest, and it's just a showcase page with a "contact us" button. I don't click on showcases, I click on documentation, getting started, and pricing links.

    Just have to wait for India to copy it, then visit India for medical tourism. They are one of the few countries standing up against big pharmaceuticals when important medicine is priced out of the reach of average citizens.

    I second this question. If you can make Bitcoins out of thin air, then why are you selling it. How do you make more profit selling it than doing it yourself? Is there anything shady or risky about your process?

    There's a really informative presentation from Jay Fields who successfully introduced Clojure to his company: http://yow.eventer.com/yow-2013-1080/lessons-learned-from-ad...

    How big/complex were your functions? Have you seen the style guide? It's easy to write really powerful, nested functions in Clojure, which are damn hard to read the next morning. Taking advantage of thread-first and thread-last ma

    I use prismatic/schema which can be used to define schemas and either validate on demand, or always-validate function inputs. Very useful and easy to add.

    I'm so glad I moved on from them a few months ago. Now, to make sure I only have my minimum funds on the current exchanges I use... I suppose I should also delete my Vircurex api library while at it.
