I'm confused. Didn't he put the blame on poor attendance?


I'm confused. Did you read just the first sentence?

The second: It’s my fault, actually. Followed by an entire post re: errors made in planning DevDays '11.


> Stephen Covey said it beautifully – “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”

He said that?

Also please stop with the obnoxious appending on text copied.



The world's only lesbian man.


"Gruber did it" is the new "Simpsons did it"?


Maybe they wrote a different value on each document as a fingerprint of sorts. Or maybe they just expected this to get out.


Probably the second one. Financial documents are typically prepared by lawyers and bankers, not cryptographers.

Or he asked his friend, "hey, can I see your document... yup, they're identical" and then leaked with impunity. If the public really wants something, and you send a document with that information on it to a bunch of people, it's going to be leaked. I think Goldman is smart enough to realize this; the buzz is helping their business, but they knew they would get in trouble if they just announced the numbers. So they just gave it to random people with a I-did-my-due-diligence-NDA and let entropy take care of the rest.


Hopefully the leaker was smart enough to perturb the values somewhat as well :)


Can't you just accept that it is in fact, somewhat comparable? I mean, you just compared it yourself.


How does this work with ICANN being an American organisation controlling the . server?


ICANN can shut down all of a ccTLD or none of it; such a penalty is too large to ever use.


if you're going for a non com/net/org domain, I'm assuming you'd have to register it with a company that's not US based too, so no ordering .nl domains through Godaddy, cause that can still cause problems.


There's no reason to use GoDaddy - there are plenty of other registrars.

I never understood why GoDaddy has some form of monopolly in the US. Personally I use Domaindiscount24 (based in Germany) for my domains.


Okay, you know what you do? You buy yourself a tape recorder, you just record yourself for a whole day. I think you’re going to be surprised at some of your phrasing.


He means the grandparent made him laugh so hard, he spit out the food he was eating. It's a compliment, not a criticism.


It's a quote from Arrested Development. You should check it out if you haven't seen it, it's on netflix and hulu.


Thanks for the reminder! I was just saying the other day how I still missed it so long after its TV run, I had quite forgotten that one.


Whoosh...

I've gotta say, I didn't even notice the double-serving hilarity of the phrasing before the parent pointed it out.


I wonder if it supports NFC such that I can replace all my swipe cards and it can identifying itself based on GPS. That would be pretty handy.


Apple Insider? It must be pretty high up her!
