Funnily enough, it's the opposite for me...

A link to the researchers write-up would be more fitting I believe. https://medium.com/@alex.birsan/messing-with-the-google-buga...

Without knowing exactly how he did it I assume this is possible by doing a POST with cURL inside a loop or with parallel.

You can then get the exact request by using Chrome developer-tools. (Find the POST-request in the network-tab, right-click and select copy as cURL)

Has anyone gone throught the list of root certificates that are trusted in the browsers/OSes and done some homework on them? Would be interesting to see what's behind those authorities and also which certificates they have issued.

I see that in the OS X keychain I have 213 "system roots" that are trusted, I wonder how many of them I really need...

Well I'm afraid that we will see a extreme right party in the next elections and I wouldn't be surprised if they got 1 seat in parliament. The progress party made some vague statements which were interpreted (and rightly so) as islamophobic in the last city council elections and that brought them two seats in the council. Before they made those statements they were looking at no seats so there definitely are people that will vote for extreme right ideals.

> Corruption of the sort you see in USA does not happen as much in Alþingi, it's more nepotism by the executive (parliamentary rule, which is problematic) than blatant bribery by funding campaigns.

Well, the funding that the parties in charge and their members of parliament got from the fisheries in the last elections can be considered a form of bribery. Especially when one of their first works in office was to make sure the fisheries make more money by paying less tax. (This issue is more complicated though).

So a little background, this looks like backlash from a few very controversial decisions the government has made recently and recent corruption allegations.

The biggest one being; Stopping the nations talks with the EU and a few days ago withdrawing* the application without discussing it in the parliament and putting it to a national vote as both parties promised would be done before the elections.

This backlash agains the 'old block' and what is called 'traditional politics' started when comedians, artists and musicians (among others) started the 'Besti flokkurinn' (Best Party) and won the elections for city council in Reykjavík ?five? years ago.

People saw that new people and new parties could do a better job then those 'professional' politicians and I think the Pirate Party is riding on that wave and every controversial decision and corruption allegations just strengthens people's believes that politics must change. It won't happen in 2 years or 6 years but we might start to see some big changes in 10 years time!

*The foreign minister wrote a letter to the EU to withdraw the application but the EU don't take it as a withdrawal. It's very strange.

Their support was 5.10% in the last elections which were in the summer of 2013.

In the national elections Iceland is split up into six constituencies which hold certain amounts of seats in parliament. At the moment this (slightly) favours the four constituencies outside of the capital which also favours the 'old block' of parties which are more popular in the countryside/rural areas/small towns.

This survey is showing a big backlash agains those in charge after a string of controversial decisions and corruption allegations. The thing is though that I doubt this backlash will last for two more years. But I'm quite sure that the pirate party will at least double the amount of seats (they have 3 now).

Hah, add to that the confusion that me and my sister have the patronymic from our father's second name.

It's the digital equivalent of figuring out that a house isn't locked, and concluding that it's OK to make a copy of the furniture. FTFY

Nice, never knew about this. Cheers

Well, looks like the kid on 2:22 is on to something.

Could you please tell me in which directory your ~ directory is and in which directory that directory is?

Second that, although I never got anything but the mail to work (no contacts, cal, tasks) and since evolution is a piece of crap (at least the version that comes with FC 18) I had to use thunderbird which doesn't have cal. But it's still worth it!

I have a hard time understanding why on earth anyone would have semicolons and parentheses in a programming language for kids!

A comma, instead of a semicolon, would be much more natural for kids imo and the parentheses are just there to confuse it seems.

Just keep it as simple as possible and have the syntax as close to natural language "rules" as possible then kids might start to understand things better.
