I have no doubt that Badger likes elephants and opposes SOPA, but their SSL certificate appears to be issued by GoDaddy.

It is a race, since Mailinator et al. keep adding new disposable domains.

I have also found undisposable.net, supposedly a central database+API for blocking disposable domains. Their site seems to be down at the moment.

It looks like the big cluster refers to computing, as it contains the english "Hacker (Computing)" and the german "Hacker". The small one should be the disambiguation cluster: "Hacker" (which is a disambiguation page) and "Hacker (Begriffsklärung)", respectively.

Hacker has probably an unambiguous meaning in most languages.

NSA uses a slightly different wording: "In God we trust, all others we monitor."

I think he said that: The blog owner's email host did not provide SPF protection; the intruder's email host appended some headers that lured Posterous to classify the email as genuine.

So, having access to the blog owner's email headers would not have provided any additional advantage to the intruder.

I'm such a chicken: I put the URL into Google Reader, and got a notification feed.

You only need to know the owner's email address.

Access to a message or a mailing list post by them won't provide any further advantage.

I think this is a very bad suggestion, even for the Lifehacker audience.

Also, keyboard shifting is a standard feature of password cracking utilities.

I think that the interface is very nice.

Re. privacy, it may be a good idea to disallow invoice URLs in robots.txt, using a common pattern or subdirectory.

SSL also prevents webmasters from tracking the keywords used by the searchers, since the referrer is blank.

This can be a useful privacy feature, in addition to the encryption.

If you can't recompile the program, an expect script will come very handy:

  $ ./unbuffer ./tst >/tmp/logit 2>&1; cat /tmp/logit
  line 1
  stderr line 1
  line 2
  stderr line 2

Sorry, that's a hoax.

The phrase: "he insisted it's just a better browser" is rather too funny to be real, so I searched and found this:

In my opinion, several detention notes from this article are practically impossible to be true.

See for example #8, which, if true, would be shocking. I can't prove it, but I would bet a lot of money it's a fake.

This made me laugh:

I have a dedicated account for Reader, and I use it from within a Mozilla Prism appliance. External links open in my regular Firefox instance.

This is a simple setup that works adequately well for me.

I think there are several tools and libraries available for this job. E.g.:

  wget --mirror -p --convert-links http://www.example.com

Re. profitability, this older news might be of interest:

This information is correct, I'm not sure why you have been downvoted...

That could be a good deal for a spamming business. I think that certain spammers currently invest significantly more than 1/100th of a penny per solved CAPTCHA.
