That Higgs boson that everyone was so eager to find last year? As it turns out, it could be the end of everything -- in the wrong circumstances, anyway. Let's try it and find out!

Atomic energy can destroy the world in the wrong conditions, but we are still here.
Let's hope, we didn't run out of luck yet.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Just as any other professional should know his or her tools, programmers have their toolkits which they should be familiar with and continously improve in them. It freaks me out when I see people use the edit menu for cut, copy, and paste

Wait that's not the correct way of cutting/copying/pasting?!?!

Convenience drives much of the world's best technology, from Amazon Web Services to Web frameworks like AngularJS. But that "convenience", which makes it easy to quickly become productive, often comes with a hidden price tag: to become truly productive, you're going to have to sweat. "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler."

A report predicts that the Internet of Things is inevitable, with nearly two-thirds of consumers planning to buy an in-home IoT device in the next five years. However, it’s not all trouble-free. My fridge just tweeted its agreement

Based on answers from 2000 people - most of them probably understand only the Internet part of IoT...

MSN is back. Microsoft is revamping its MSN brand with the introduction of several Bing-powered apps and a new homepage. Because people were just starting to get used to the Bing brand?

Hey, it's Microsoft. How can one be surprised?

Desktop workloads and server workloads have different needs. Why address them in the same operating system? They could call them Linux XP and Linux Pro! Or Linux Vista and Linux Server 2012 R2.

If you haven’t had your password hijacked, it’s really just a matter of time. Here's my new idea: every login form will have a new checkbox, "Yes, it's really me, not a hacker." Bulletproof security!
|
|
|
|
|
What about the hacker then? There must be a constitutional founded legislation enabling even hacker-scumbacks to login now and then. Or otherwise you could just as well disable the checkmark to begin with if the current loged in user has a TRUE marking for Session.User.IsHacker <--- you know that one?

..and the companies where passwords are "stolen" should be held financially liable for all consequences thereof. As long as it is not, there will not be an incentive (and hence, budget) to secure anything. Larger companies have proven this to be true. It's simply cheaper to do some marketing in case of fire, as opposed to prevention.
Any system that "knows" your password (by mailing it to you, best proof that it is saved in the database in a readable form) is insecure. And no, there is NO EXCUSE for saving a password in your database.

What about an Al-Queda-version instead?: If security is so insecure to begin with why not remove it all together? Therefore a name should be enough. Also passwords are so difficult to remember - right? On attempts to login on other peoples behalf a finger are chubbed off at the local police station and on following attempts another finger. On the 10'th attempt no more fingers are left and he/she can't login anymore. Set and done! Top security and as a result - over time - no more security are compromised.

I had joked that the way to keep your passwords secure is to never know them. Create some 100 character mess by mashing on the keyboard and then, just request a new password every time you sign in.
I know. I know. GENIUS!!!
well, as long as the email acct associated with the password recovery is good, then you are ok.
