12 out of 10! Booyah!

If you click your guy, he becomes a ghost and can phase through objects.

Not to mention the complete lack of Sandboxing and Mandatory Code Signing?

On second thought, I can't find any other sources on this story. If VUPEN can keep it quiet then it's not as much of a problem.

Wow! If VUPEN's "product" has been leaked, then it's not worth as much to their clients. I wonder if they'll disclose the whole lot and go looking for more 0day?

I would have done much better if I could type 1a2a3a to send groups of marines. :)

It doesn't even check for underflow!

The Android Native Development Kit allows you to write normal C code and compile it for ARM devices.

My priorities must be backwards. I'm almost as appalled that the app comes with an "Energy" meter that is fueled by 99-cent in-app purchases.

I never realized that files uploaded to Virustotal are shared with the AV vendors, but that makes a good deal of sense.

Oh good, it's back! Thanks.

Has it fallen down already? The rest of codeschool.com works but I get an "Application Error" when I go to Try Ruby.

The technology looks interesting, but it looks like Amazon gets to track all web surfing that you do on the Kindle Fire?

Since "Google" has become its own verb, it makes sense that few people link to google.com with the word "Search".

I think "soft skill" just refers to people skills, as opposed to computer skills.

What if I'm being carjacked and my car won't let me get away?

If it's anything like the first Galaxy S, they'll have to come up with 4 different variants for the US carriers. That's got to create some extra development time.

I beg to differ, here's the best quote: -snip- The BGA part in question lay right on the flexure line and had mechanical stress transmitted directly to its balls -- leading to prem…
