    Yeah, this doesn't really help.

    Because he did not die while serving his country? That's what Memorial Day is.

    Really? Do you really think a democratic country like the UK, Sweden, or the US would be so stupid as to kill such a lightning rod figure? We're not talking about backwater banana …

    It is surprising that as sole guardian of the girls, he would run the risk of them going into the state foster system just so he could get (illegal) lolz online. That's very irresp…

    Those generally use FastCGI, which again, is not vulnerable.

    I've always observed that those "unskilled" (entry-level) developers that are humble and know that they don't know much learn much better than the cocky, "I've been programming for…

    It's impressive, but would it be worth investing in on Kickstarter? No.

    That's silly. Microsoft sees the ARM-based tablet future, and doesn't want to miss out. But, they don't want to piss Intel off too bad, since they work hand in hand to develop Wind…

    If you're going to have a (management|engineering|whatever) blog for your company/project, have a link to your company/project home page prominently somewhere on the blog.

    How does that explain the four "current" versions, then?

    That makes no sense, I'm sure in the US we've had many more race riots and such (The Rodney King riots and the riots when MLK was assassinated come to mind), but we still offer fre…

    >So there’s plenty to debate. But I don’t think anyone is saying that “hate speech” is just the expression of ideas. It’s the expression of ideas that is held to incite criminal an…

    I'm not, I was simply saying that if all those things were legal, criminals (the cartels, not the users) would find something else illegal to peddle. These people look for an easy …

    Well, first of all, this article is complete BS with no corroboration or even references. Secondly, even if there weren't a war on drugs, the gangsters would find something else to…

    I'd be careful about using the term "bulletproof" in this context. Before reading the article, I assumed it was talking about sending spam without getting blacklisted.

    This made me laugh from that: Emo I don't know what you're looking for but it's no use. Might as well kill yourself.

    But why do you single out Facebook? They offer a total of 15(!!!) ways to log in, including traditional and any form of OpenID. It really does smell like link-bait by singling out …

    not true at all. Maybe if you're looking at old sites, but PHP5's been out for a long time now, and most of the code in circulation is made for 5.2 or higher. No serious MVC framew…

    The difference is, hackers aren't inherently not suitable, but they're not inherently suitable either. A good CEO can be a good CEO everywhere, but a good hacker isn't necessarily …

    It's because you'll eventually run into a suit if you go high enough in an established company. A company run by all tech people will not last as long nor be successful as one that…
