I do know 'anythin' about OpenBSD. And yes, I was already aware of the things in the online presentation. But OpenBSD is not unique on this matter. Other OSes offer the same functionality. OpenBSD is quite unique on his strong focus on writing correct code. But that alone is not enough for being a 'secure OS'. OpenBSD has security features that other OSes lack, but the same counts for any other OS. If you call OpenBSD secure just because they focus on writing correct code, then you're missing the point about what good security is all about.

OpenBSD is nothing more than software with a very low bug count. While bug free software is a nice ingredient, but for real security much more is needed.

And you're one of those teenagers that clicks code instead of writing it. Amateur...

Right, it's clear you haven't done much code reviewing. Not checking for return values is where things go wrong very often.

Nice example of insecure code at their login screen (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=309297&clcid=0x409&slcid=0x409): What if InsertOrUpdate() or Save() fails? Lesson number one in secure programming: ALWAYS check return codes of functions.

"It isn't stealing. When I steal, you don't have what I took from you."

That's not the definition of stealing. It's taking what is not yours without getting permission or paying for it, while you should have. This is also the case with pirating.

Btw, congrats TPB and I hope you live many more years!!

It's called Prowl. http://www.prowlapp.com/ Simply send an e-mail to a special e-mail address and you'll get a notification on your iPhone. And it's even cheaper than 5 bucks. Topic can be closed.

... look at what your government does to people anywhere around the world.

Attorney General Eric Holder promises Edward Snowden won't be tortured or face the death penalty

Why such a promise? Can I read this as a confirmation by the USA that they've tortured other people?

With OpenBSD and specially it's main developer, nothing is arguably...

Taken a quick view at Laravel, it's again a framework like one in a dozen.

All such PHP projects can be divided into to groups: frameworks and CMS-es. A big problem with all those PHP frameworks is that you have to write stuff like user administration, authentication, static pages from the database, etc yourself. In my opinion, in many cases the MVC architecture is not implemented in a clean way and it's often too complex to translate an URL to an actual file on disk.

A big problem with most CMS-es (like Wordpress, Joomla and TYPO3) is that it's one big chunk of code. There is no clear separate framework layer. It's quite a torture to add or change functionality by writing code. And don't even get me started about security!

That's why I wrote the Banshee PHP framework. Clear MVC implementation, easy routing, strong focus on security and clear separation between framework layer and CMS. Clear the controller, model, view and css directory and what's left is the framework. Although I call it a framework, it's more of a framework / CMS hybrid.

It is not my intention to spam about my framework, but I realize this post can be seen as such. Sorry for that. I only want PHP developers to know there is more than those minimalist frameworks or bloated CMS-es.

Clippy?? Dude, you haven't updated your computer for too long. Get your ass of the web, right now!

And the only thing I really want in Firefox is *still* not there. But instead, more crap features.

If Mozilla did take Firefox seriously, they would implement TLS1.1 and TLS1.2 support instead of these useless features.

Good security is not about making clever rules. It's about dealing properly with the exceptions of those rules. Banishing liquids from airplanes is nothing more than a rule. Its level of security depends on how you deal with the situations in which you must, or at least should, allow a bottle of liquid on an airplane. If you don't have rules for that, if your personel is not trained and aware for those situations, your whole security setup is vulnerable for social engineering and it becomes nothing more than security theater.
