    Mine was 5 characters, alpha and numeric, but no special characters. It was in there, prepended with 0's. Whoops. At the very least, it should have been longer.

    ... and there you go doing it again. There's not much room to joke about assassination and lynchings in a country that has a very recent history of assassinations and lynchings. It…

    They are broadcasting it to all of their neighbors. In our apartment building, I see about 30 WiFi networks.

    I see Heroku, Beanstalk, et al as the future here. This code-less approach will hit a brick wall very quickly, at which point they'll be writing something not unlike Google AppEngi…

    There's a substantial difference between a service and an installed product. PostgreSQL 9.3 is installed on your database server, the source is available, and it isn't going anywhe…

    Being a hacker has nothing to do with poor ethics. In fact, I'd say many of the best hackers I've had the privilege to work with have a strong sense of morals and ethics.

    None of that is justification for theft.

    The victimized party can choose to spin this any way they want, but it had no bearing on whether it actually did them harm or how they actually feel about it. That's not your decis…

    That neither proves that unethical behavior was required for Apple's success, nor that said bond could only be created through unethical behavior. If you want a recrimination of th…

    This is a simple 'black and white' ethical case. He didn't have approval for the services and resources he consumed, he knew it was wrong (he purposefully avoided security), and he…

    I see AOL as doing their best to avoid a bigger snafu over a smaller, unattractive snafu. Opinions on the value of this PR will vary, but the fact is that there's no substance here…

    That's an unsupported assertion. What unethical behavior are you referring to, and how have you demonstrated that Apple's success not only stemmed from such behavior, but could hav…

    I prefer to work with people that resolve ethical questions ethically, not based on who benefits (or loses).

    This is an exceptionally long rationalization for unethical behavior that well demonstrates why I am so opposed to the focus on "hustle" (or as you put it, "moxie") in some segment…

    Just a guess, but the iOS keychain can be used to share information across applications with a common bundle prefix.
