The article fails to mention by how much the distance to the moon varies. Max=407.000 km Min=363.000 km

I did expect the Activity Stream to show the history in some sort of tree view, where if you go back while browsing, and then hit another link on a previous page, this will be show…

Thanks for the more sane perspective on this. I was like "wtf" when I read this article. As a Swedish citizen, the article got me a bit worried.

Quora's "real name policy" is just moronic. The thing is that Quora doesn't care at all if the name is real or not. What is important for them is that the name looks real. They thi…

Maybe the point is that you do not need to store the database securely, that you can store it openly, as long as the certificate used to generate the passwords is kept secret. But …

What do you mean? This solution does not store passwords at all, if I understand it correctly. So whining about storing them on "someone else disk" is a bit odd, don't you think?

Seems like a really cool idea, as long as the password generator can be proved to be hard enough to break. How long does the retrieval of a password take? Sub-second? 10 seconds?

Ok, cool that you can access it anywhere.

How does this compare to the KeePass family of pw-managers? (Besides that Forgiva is closed source and KeePass is open source.) Fixes poor passwords, accessibility and storage prob…

So what he is saying is that we don't know what the damages are, and that we know that the revelations did a lot of good, and then says that the damages are huge. Ok then.

Sweden here: We always have the election on a Sunday to maximize number of voters. Also, voting can of course be posted ahead, and voting can be delegated to an ombudsman if you ar…

Feedback: After clicking the link, editing the url to find the real site, clicking everything, I still don't know what this is besides something that has to do with music and colla…

Odd there were no mention of Java. Both high speed and simple to develop : http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-r... https://spring.io/guides/gs/messaging-sto…

na, no problem. 'tomp2' is still available

Spock is a DSL based on Groovy, and is for writing run-able test specifications. We are looking into standardizing on using Spock for test specifications in our automated system te…

Why is the auto-convert 'features' in Excel not opt-in? When Excel encounters the first cell in a new sheet that it thinks should be auto-converted, why does it not ask if that is …

I wonder what the thermal conductivity of this stuff is. And what happens with it below 0 and above 100 degree Celsius?

Thanks, really useful. Any plans on including this in Apache Commons? How does it compare to StringUtils in Apache Commons?

"used pirated software" So they did not pay for the crack tools they used? Bastards!

Password managers clears the clipboard after a specified timeout (if the clipboard still contains the password at that point). For KeePass I think the default timeout is 30 seconds…

Adobe flash update notification always have the McAfee Antivirus trial installer pre-selected by default. Pisses me off every time.

Sort of a Lorem Ipsum in music. Listening to good music (as a non-musician) is for me mostly about experience emotions. Listening to this music leads immediately to be about identi…

Exactly. Also, the logo links to the product page, not to some blog aggregation page as many other announcement do.

What about open source projects where people mostly collaborate remotely? Are they harder to manage, or less efficient?

I agree that 1) is a problem, although technical solutions are possible I find them awkward. I think 2) has to do with people not feeling they are part of the team. Our solution to…
