They recently told people to stop using the supercharger so much. I'm doubtful it's a viable business model long term.

Which is a good thing. It means if you get mugged, if your kid gets abducted, if you get stabbed, there may well be some garage or shop with CCTV who will have some useful evidence. It's one of the reasons there's very little cr

How many memory corruption / buffer overflow exploits have there been say in the JVM? Using something like Java does cut out a whole class of memory exploits...

They're not going to ban encryption. Seriously. Stop wasting time on misquotes taken out of context blown up by The Guardian. There's more important things to worry about.

I grew up in a reasonably poor household. We certainly weren't wealthy. I couldn't care less about poverty or not poverty, it's irrelevant. I was incredibly lucky to have good parents, with 'smart' genes.

“We found that before age 1, infants’ brains were basically the same, regardless of whether or not they were growing up in a poor family." What does that show? I'm sure if you checked the sperm and egg you could say "they&#x

Genes are by far the most important factor. If you've bred animals, you'll understand this. Take a couple of poor animals and breed them. They'll have poor offspring. You can do all you like in their environment, but they&#x2

Isn't that pretty much why we have welfare - to give the poor protection money to stop them attacking? Sure, you could spend more on police, but it's probably more cost effective to just give poor people money to keep them a bit m

I've been running it for months without issues. Yes every so often it fills up the /tmp directory - setup a cronjob or something, but it is basically install and forget. (My install gets maybe 10-20 requests a second, so maybe I&#

Advertising is the method most people use to discover new products/services. Of course these days the line is often blurred. So half the posts on HN could be adverts, and you wouldn't really know about it. In fact lots of them are
