  1. Re:Apple Laptop Keyboards Unsuitable for Unix User on Jordan Hubbard Gives Last Intervew For Apple · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but the barrel is getting bigger.

  2. Re:Couple this with Dvorak... on Keyboarding Love Or Keyboarding Pain · · Score: 1

    Yeah, after a while, it is just like working on a keyboard with the control key in the wrong place (below shift, that is). You get used to switching, but you still make mistakes.

  3. Re:Lemme get this straight. on Gamecube Finally Plays GBA Games · · Score: 5, Insightful

    A $44 attachment for a $70 unit to plug into your $150 console to play $35 games with the quality lesser than that of a 1990 era NES that sells for $20?

    ... priceless
  4. Re:dnetc on NSA Approves First 802.11b Product for Secret Data · · Score: 1
    Yeah then dnetc could brute force hack the crypto....
    ... and find that nothing at all interesting is US SECRET... (laugh, it's a joke)
  5. Re:Easy, use Java Web Application Servers on A Guide to Building Secure Web Applications · · Score: 1

    Choosing the right programming language is clearly an important decision, but it is still possible to create reasonably secure software in c/c++/perl/etc. It just takes some knowledge of what potential problems could come up and good programming practices.

    And of course testing (!!!!), code review, and good design with security built in from the beginning.

    chapter n: digging a hole in your backyard (or whatever passes for a backyard), filling it halfway with concrete mix, placing pc in concrete mix, then covering with more concrete mix.... Now we can't even tell what kind of computer was in there (... was there a computer in there?)

  7. Re:the underlying OS is irrelevant on More Switching Stories · · Score: 1
    I ask you (kevin), If you have an interview coming up and they ask for your resume in Word, do you really trust OpenOffice or do you boot into windows ?

    Of course, the other option is to not apply for a job that expects word documents for resumes . . .
