Raspberry Pi really so hard? Been years I didn't do anything with hardware.

I advice Netduino or better, gadgeteer. Wrote about it.
Same thing but with real C#, real IDE, and real libraries.

Speaking to a packed exhibit hall, Edward Snowden said the keys to protecting the public from government surveillance is encryption and civilian oversight. The world's most famous whistleblower has said it before, but reiterated it for the SXSW crowd, that end-to-end encryption would go a long way towards protecting user data from both spying and attackers. Kind of ironic he used a Google service to give the talk

It looks like the rise of the “as a service” model, where people can buy software, platform access, security and more from a cloud-based provider for a fixed term, may have spawned its Damien: cybercrime as a service. "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?"

Labor data shows says that Feb. was a strong month for IT hiring, though it's still not at early 2013 levels Good news?

It’s certainly not bad news. However, the increase needs to continue for quite some time before it is great news.
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

There was a time when computer games didn't have graphics. Or at least they couldn't have graphics and sound at the same time. They certainly couldn't have graphics, sound and enough content to keep even a human being amused for more than a few minutes. So they had text. "Don't panic"

Google today launched the Google Apps Referral Program in the US and Canada. The referral program lets you share Google Apps with other businesses, and pocket a $15 bonus for each new user that signs up. "What are you willing to give me if I deliver him over to you?"

Quote: By the way, they're charging money for this API!
What mistakes does this API make, then?
1. Passwords are stored in plain text.
2. The app can see all users it has registered, without any clear reason.
3. The key is sent over the network.
4. The API can return plain text passwords, for no clear reason.
5. The data is all sent in plain text.
6. There is no concept of auth/deauth for the app - it always has access to users it registered.
Oh and they were warned about the problem back in 2010.

Microsoft's work continues unabated on a new Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler to replace what is currently in use with the .NET Framework. The compiler's (codenamed RyuJIT) latest CTP demonstrates significant improvement over both the first preview release and the current JIT compiler (JIT64) that is in production use. "I still don't have what it takes. I must train harder."

I thought it was named for the character in Street Fighter, but I suppose acronym is possible.

A Team of US researchers at UC Berkeley conducted a study on the HTTPS traffic analysis of ten widely used HTTPS-secured Web sites with surprising results. The 'S' is for 'Sort of secure'

Following reports that Britain’s GCHQ had intercepted data being transmitted between Google datacenters, Schmidt said that the company’s resulting security upgrade had left him “Pretty sure that information within Google is now safe from any government’s prying eyes.” And I'm "pretty sure" he wouldn't know one way or the other

Speaking today at the SXSW conference, Google's SVP of Android and Chrome Sundar Pichai said that in two weeks, Google will be releasing a developer SDK that will make it easier for companies to create wearable devices that run on Android. "You are fully functional, aren't you?"

Finally? They've been out in front of the wearable device thing for awhile with Glass.
