You can validate by repeating the work and sign your content. The domain name system is now just a rent seeking scheme. It was great as a temp solution but over time it has deleted…

I once discover you can put escaped XML or json in css content. The purpose was to have static data sets that work cross domain. No headers to configure no letting strangers run al…

Not to excuse nag screens but I think the real question is: How should discovery work? Riding the wave of success doesn't say much about quality. How could one even begin to measur…

Nice catch: Building something for one purpose then [gradually] end up using it for something else. For software you probably want a feedback box baked in. If there should be somet…
