I've spent the past week bouncing up and down the west coast between San Jose, CA and Portland, OR - not spending even 48 hours in either location at any point. This threw a wrench into my exercise program because not only did I have to find the time to exercise, I also had to figure out what to do with my sweaty clothes when I checked out each day. Conor P. Cahill. Friday, Febru...

Conor's Web Log of Esoterica. Hey, I just happen to have an opinion or two. Tuesday, March 03, 2009.

Conor's Web Log of Esoterica. Hey, I just happen to have an opinion or two. Sunday, June 22, 2008. I've been using the new Firefox 3.0. Browser for several days now and I have to say that I am very impressed with it. The browser certainly feels substantially faster at loading the same pages that I frequently visited before with Firefox 2 and with Internet Explorer 7 - though I have to admit that this is very subjective and that server and ISP performance come into play. To make the order. My personal opi...

Argues against my characterization of SSIDs and mac addresses being like house numbers:. Let’s think about this. Are SSIDs and MAC addresses like house numbers? So let’s see:.

Nothing to see here. move along.". Friday, March 19, 2010. Email Verification and Identity Federation. Most sites today, when registering a new user, invoke some form of email verification.

While not ideal, this works today as the user is "registering" directly with the web site. The web site (relyingparty.examp...
