Unless we're talking about base stations that connect to some online cloud service so you can control it from work, I want less security, not more. Really, the job of security should be left up to the router/gateway between my network and the internet. If the attacker's on my local wifi, I'm already hosed anyway.
More importantly, leaving these devices open is good for extensibility. If the devices become secure, they become locked down. As it is, if my smartbrand a doorbell goes off I can have it tell my smartbrand b lights to turn on, etc. Security will solve a problem of a hacker getting in, but you can bet we won't get the keys for our own legitimate use.
Secure your network, and let the devices do what they do best. Also don't connect them to the internet because damn, that sounds like a mess waiting to happen, security or not.
I thought the whole point of ODF is that it was readable without certain software. All you need is to unzip it and you can look at the underlying XML files, which is a hell of a alot better than doc was, and the XML in ODF is more readable/user modifiable than OOXML (in my opinion (I've opened it and modified it myself on a few occasions)).
At least how I heard it, back when Massachusetts was going to use it that was a big part of the reason (documents still readable even if the software is long gone).
Double Fine listed "October 2012" as their release, not August. Granted they've passed that now, but as a commenter before me said: communication is key. Since I see they're honest-to-god working on it, I'm not mad.
Double Fine Adventure was my first video game kickstarter - so I'm sort of using it as a measuring stick before I help fund other games. So far I don't feel burned - and I'm still excited for when it eventually does come out, so I think they're doing something right. It should be possible for things like this to pick up in the future.
I mostly just like the idea that the companies get funded without someone coming in and saying "hurr, we need to add more guns to this game for it to sell." "But it's a puzzle game!" "LOL Do it anyway! People Like Call of Duty!"
I'm pretty sure a large number of movies are streamed to netflix boxes and such via cloud services acting as CDNs. I think amazon books would still be owned by amazon - but third parties with agreements with amazon to distribute (such as netflix) may either have
Of course, this won't make a difference to whoever has the most lawyers. They can probably even fix this retroactively.
Even if you did want to jump on this and claim the studios lost copyright 'cause of cloud delivery - that would only apply to copies you ripped from the cloud. They'd still nail you for torrents of blu-ray rips. And then they'd nail you again (always double-tap). Then they'd figure out how patent movie ideas and sue you for your home video that features your son running around in a cape.
Unfortunately, I don't really see any way to get what you want for the long haul. Companies keep changing, and so does the web. Even if you find one, it will produce code that breaks in browsers a few years from now, and sometimes current ones. What I would suggest is (bear with me) hand-coding your layout once, and then working it as a template for a simple CMS. I wouldn't want to hand code an entire website either, and for most a fully blown CMS is overkill (I don't need forums, or accounts at all: my website isn't really social), but there exist CMSs inbetween, and you only have to hand-code a few pages at worst.
I started with WolfCMS or something similar. Make one page, cut the code into snippets, and create a "layout" that includes these snippets. The CMS will fill the content in for you as you create pages. That's all I need, and it still gives me the power/flexibility to form my website into anything I want. Also, I would avoid one that has it's own scripting language. More pain than it's worth, especially for simple websites. You'll need to learn a little web development to get set up, but it should be relatively smooth sailing once installed. Wordpress can also be bent to create a number of different kinds of websites with their template system, though it's a bit more complicated. Handy if you want to include a well-known, well-supported (with plugins!) blog system, though.
As for hand-coding software, I tend to move around. I used GoLive for a time, for the preview, but now I just have some kind of programmer's GUI text editor in one space/virtual desktop, and a browser open in the other. I use Smultron on mac (I think it's been abandoned now though), Geany on linux, and Notepad++ on windows. Geany's my favourite so far.
