Embarrassingly... no. Our login/authentication system was written in 1999, and it shows -- we store panel login passwords using symmetric encryption, and send out the decrypted pas…

We're currently in the middle of resetting passwords, machine by machine. If your old password has stopped working, that means we've gotten to the machine that you're on, and you'r…

Specifically, the "standard compression" version is MainConcept at 10 Mbit, and the "Raystream" version is x264 at 1.15 Mbit using the following options: > x264 - core 112 - H.264/…

It plays on iPods and other iOS devices. Other than that, not much -- FLAC's compression ratio is a bit better on average, and more non-Apple devices support it. The release of thi…

SCTP is at a different layer of the network stack -- it's a replacement for TCP, not for HTTP. As such, it's much more difficult to deploy, as it currently requires a kernel extens…

Pages' full-screen mode is relatively new -- as far as I'm aware, it wasn't added until the Lion update. Scrivener et. al. have had the market to themselves up until now. That bein…

I don't think it's actually any more powerful in that regard than, say, tags. If your application lets users perform destructive actions with a GET request, you were already vulner…

aufs isn't mainline, and will probably never be mainline, because it's ~27,000 lines of poorly documented and often buggy code, written by a single maintainer in a style that doesn…

Far worse. As defined, you can't write a parser for "tagged netstrings" without: * Infinite lookahead - the type for a tagged netstring doesn't appear until the END of up to 100 MB…

Harmless Javascript minification can be difficult to distinguish from intentional obfuscation. Packer in base62 mode ( http://dean.edwards.name/packer/ ) is a good example.

We're currently taking registrations under COM/NET (Verisign) and ORG/INFO (Afilias). US is a third, separate registry (NeuStar), and we aren't currently a registrar for them.
