  1. Disabling CSS on Alarm Raised For "Clickjacking" Browser Exploit · · Score: 0

    AFAIK the only way to disable CSS is to use obsolete browses like lynx.

    I may be wrong here but in FF doesn't View >> Page style >> No style disable CSS? IANAWD

  2. conditionally easier on SDK Shoot Out, Android Vs. IPhone · · Score: 2, Insightful

    And to say ObjC is as easy as Ruby or Python is ludicrous.

    It's easier than both of those....... IF you're grounded in C.

  3. Re:Python? on SDK Shoot Out, Android Vs. IPhone · · Score: 1

    I've been disappointed with the lack of Python on these smartphone devices.

    PyObjC

  4. Objective-C vs. Java on SDK Shoot Out, Android Vs. IPhone · · Score: -1, Troll

    Objective-C vs. Java? Seems I can't use Java's verbosity against it this time (see UIKit's applicationDidReciveMemoryWarning, etc;). There is no excuse however for Java's longer method names (see Integer.toCryptStringOnMondaysWednesdaysAndAlternateFridays() )

  5. Superflous on Clean Code · · Score: 2, Informative

    I don't see who the audience is going to be, aside from n00bs. No senior dev is going to buy this unless it's for a hint hint type of gift to a less-experienced colleague.

    If you're in the field, you either know this stuff already and use it (won't be purchasing the book), know this stuff and don't use it (won't be purchasing the book), know this stuff and don't care (you wouldn't be pained to go purchase a book about it).

    Bob's really chosen a microscopic target reading audience imo.

  6. Fast User Switching Patent? on Apple Attempts to Patent Pre-Existing Display Software Idea · · Score: 1

    Didn't Apple attempt to patent fast user switching a while ago?

  7. Re:No harm, no foul on University Brings Charges Against White Hat Hacker · · Score: 4, Insightful

    University is for learning and documenting what you know for others to use, not for fearing that you might anger some incompetent sysadmin.

    From TFA: This is the second time Carleton has dealt with hackers in recent months. In late July, a hacker broke into the e-mail system.

    Let us agree on the incompetence. This is their second incident in 3 months.

  8. Re:Gramm'e'r nazis enjoy! on Integrated Circuit Is 50 Years Old Today · · Score: 1

    You really should get that chip off your shoulder.

    This was so punny I forgot to laugh.

  9. Re:Markets at work on Best Buy + Windows Guru = Apple Store Experience? · · Score: 1

    The entire world continues to benefit from the fact that MS is a convicted monopolist.

    The entire world? How so?

  10. Re:Easy to find out... on HTTPS Cookie Hijacking Not Just For Gmail · · Score: 1

    Bank of America has some explaining to do.

    They would boast about their SiteKey© or some such thing. I doubt much would change without a greater segment of the customer base demanding it.

  11. Re:TOS on Google Updates Chrome's Terms of Service · · Score: 1

    it was the easiest thing for the programmers to do at the time

    Programmers?
