Redirecting from HTTP to HTTPS is a bad security idea

Every so often, people setting up SSL websites have the bright idea thatto be friendly, they should have a non-SSL version of the site thatredirects people to the SSL website. They are entirely correct that thisis the friendliest approach, but you shouldn't do it if you care aboutsecurity.

(There are plenty of reasons to use SSL even if you don't care aboutsecurity. Pervasive SSL frustrates all of the people who want to sticktheir fingers in traffic between actual users and your


理解

「被人理解」究竟是怎麼一回事?

有些人,例如某些年輕人,說,希望大家能夠明白他。叫人明白你,是甚麼意思?這是指,你做出一些別人能夠理解,有經驗可以對照的行為,讓人明白你。例如你想道歉,於是你說「對不起」

週末不在家,我就在旅途上—-Samantha Brown的Great Weekends系列又來了!

Samantha Brown (珊曼莎‧布朗)的確是一個可人兒,她具備一個旅遊節目主持人應有的最重要之一個條件,就是既有自己的個性,卻又可融入當地文化,隨時化身街坊。

Druplicon in a Pumpkin

My feeble attempt:

Druplicon Pumpkin - Druplikin

I've seen a few others in the Planet feed, and this year I had a really nice round pumpkin, so I figured, 'What the heck?' I've done a couple Apple-logo pumpkins in the past. Next year I may go for a more carved approach - with different depths of carving for a more Death Star-like effect .


Who's the Nerdiest Nerd this Halloween?

I'm definitely not the nerdiest guy in the world, but I sure do try! See the pumpkin in all it's halloween glory on Flickr: Druplicon Pumpkin - Druplikin .


All Hallows Eve

This guy knows how to celebrate Halloween... with lights, Michael Jackson, and a healthy dose of creativity:


一條蕉從熟到生的自白

由於極討厭臉上那些像爛熟香蕉的雀斑,大半年前開始做laser facial,起初,兩星期一次,到雀斑幾乎全沒了,就改為三星期至一個月一次。

The second act, that’s what the depth comes in.

原本以為《中坑同學會》( Grown Ups ) 會是一齣無聊的胡鬧喜劇,導演 Dennis Dugan 前作《特務卡啦蘇》 (You Don’t Mess with the Zohan )  粗鄙不文種族岐視,並非一般人受得了的重口味。

《中坑同學會》骨子裡仍有導演的咸咸濕濕,賤賤格格的心態,


迷信和Placebo

Willsin在網誌上 自認極之迷信 ,還舉例說自己搭飛機一遇到氣流,飛機擺動得厲害時,就立刻祈禱求耶穌打救,「所以僥倖活到今日」云云。我不知道他是否真的迷信,但他說的卻令我聯想到the placebo paradox。

"Placebo"一般譯做「安慰劑」,不
