  1. Re:Google monopoly? on Google Rejects EU Antitrust Charges, Says Evidence is Lacking (reuters.com) · · Score: 2

    Where did it say monopoly? This is anti-trust.

  2. Re:The job titles are often the "catch" .... on LinkedIn, Glassdoor Add Tools To Reveal Your Pay Potential (seattletimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Another scam in the IT field (and maybe others) is to give people titles in lieu of higher salary. For example they will come up with the title "Associate Vice President" which is completely meaningless.

  3. Re:Parliament should approve on UK's Brexit Cannot Pass Without Parliament Approval (aljazeera.com) · · Score: 1

    So you have sovereignty because you had the opportunity to leave via a referendum, but referendums are undemocratic somehow (possibly because Germany doesn't allow them). Such logic. I think what you meant to say was "let them eat cake!"

  4. Good on UK's Brexit Cannot Pass Without Parliament Approval (aljazeera.com) · · Score: 0, Troll

    This good because the Brexit people clearly are dirty unwashed common ignorant people who couldn't possibly understand what Brexit means. Unlike us Remain folks, who are so much smarter than them and make all of our decisions carefully and logically. Let them eat cake I say!

    Uh, that would be a disaster for the Dodgers. Instead of getting a cut of every subscriber (of which probably 10% actually watch Dodger games), they would only get a cut of those who actually watch Dodger games.

  6. Now take that imaginary money, multiply it by 10,000,000 and you will get the annual military budget.

  7. Taking more shots doesn't mean you perform better. Neither does scoring more points.

  8. Yes. Lets make America more like Jordan. Next.

  9. Guess you have never been to Singapore. Next.

    People that matter use iPhones. Period.

  11. Please name one right wing government that currently exists that works for the people. Just one.

  12. Hard to believe that the State Department would actually coordinate with the former head of the State Department about State Department issues.

    You want insights from a marketing guy?

  15. As a young boy I always dreamed of entering the book packaging business. However I found it is very hard to get a job in that industry with so many people clamoring to get into that exciting field. Do you have any advice of how to crack into the book packaging business?

  16. That is only half of the side of the conversation. Where is the other half?

  17. You have no idea if they are running that code in their closed source clients, and you have no idea what is being transmitted to the server. You do have to trust someone, but Internet companies have proven to be untrustworthy.

  18. So you could trust a corporation, who employs people you have never met, or seen the credentials of, who wants to make money somehow off of storing your passwords, or you could trust some open source developers, or yourself if you learned enough to take a look at the source. The point is with open source you at least have the OPTION of the latter. Whether you take that option or not is up to you, but I don't trust companies. They have proven to be untrustworthy.

  19. That is only one side of the code (that they are presumably using in their closed source client). Where is the rest?

    The thing is: you never know. They could be doing the right thing now, but maybe they aren't. Or maybe the company changes ownership or gets threatened by some agency or needs some "alternative" revenue stream. You would never know because you can't know exactly what they are doing.

  21. Correct. I have audited the code and I know it is secure. So basically you have no idea if Lastpass is secure, BUT you COULD find out if Keepass is secure if you audited the publicly available code. With Lastpass you don't have that option. You are basically trusting some company to do the right thing. Good luck with that.

  22. I guess I never realized that breaking a company policy was illegal. Thanks for the tip!

  23. Yes I have. It is 100% secure. I have audited the code. So how do you know Lastpass is secure? I await your response.

  24. Thanks! Where is the server side code? That is just the interface to LastPass.com.

    How do you know this? Do you work for Lastpass?
