  1. Can't you just block it through the firewall?

  2. Re:Screw the greedy artists on Music Streaming Service Exclusives Make Pirating Tempting Again (theverge.com) · · Score: 0

    Most artists don't make dick with the "new music industry". Poor fans should listen to the radio and stop expecting to be handed our music.

  3. Nothing to do with the DB on Over 650 TB of Data Up For Grabs From Publicly Exposed MongoDB Database (csoonline.com) · · Score: 0

    Bad architecture, plain and simple. Why on earth would you expose your persistence layer to the public?

  4. But... on Military Caught Training Children To Fight · · Score: 0

    It was quite transparent in the books. The kids had implants for god sake. Everyone knew. This is just silly.

  5. What about fuel savings? on Montana Lawmakers Propose 85 Mph Speed Limit On Interstates · · Score: 0

    Why don't we limit speed based solely on needing to conserve gas? Can't complain about gas prices when you don't even try to keep them down.

  6. Xamarin Test Cloud on All Web Developers Should Have Access to a Device Lab (Video) · · Score: 0

    http://xamarin.com/test-cloud They have a "data center" of phones that they have somehow virtualized. Cool stuff really.

  7. Asparagus in a closed environment sounds like a horrible idea. Can you turn a fan on in the lavatory on a space station or bio dome on a space rock? I mean... ewwww.

  8. Thanks on Misogyny, Entitlement, and Nerds · · Score: 0

    I feel a lot less intelligent for having read this.

  9. Casino on Why Not Fund SETI With a Lottery Bond? · · Score: 0

    How about a SETI casino? House odds to generate funds on the ET gamble.

  10. Re:Towel for that egg, Barry? on How 3 Young Coders Built a Better Portal To HealthCare.gov · · Score: 0

    Oooo. They created a site that connects to a web service and lists stuff. I suppose if we gave them a couple more weeks they will have verified income, immigration status, national security checks, and waded through every states muddled regulations for insurance. It's not a portal. It is a commerce site for a very complicated widget.

  11. The answer is obviously LISP. I don't know a thing about the details of the problems. I do know all problems can be solved by a magical language. LISP and, ummm, Ruby, and PERL. Yeah PERL. That's all they need. Problem solved.

  12. Sigh on Ministry of Sound Suing Spotify Over User Playlists · · Score: 0

    Sigh

  13. 1983ish on How Did You Learn How To Program? · · Score: 1

    Comodore PET in Junior High. BASIC. Pretty progressive for a Junior High School in Cohoes NY. My final project was ASCII art animation. A Spaceship flying across the screen, then finally blowing up.
