This is profoundly troubling, especially after learning that a recent mass shooting was executed via such a gun. http://www.wired.com/2015/06/i-made-an-untraceable-ar-15-ghost-gun/ …

Does 'charset=utf8' work anywhere? Or do other browsers fallback to UTF-8 just giving the appearance? @ericlaw http://wp.me/p60i9o-r

GitHub has spoiled me. We need a pull-request HTTP method and then you can just fix it for them. https://twitter.com/ericlaw/status/587614039645143040 …

How to decide to trust a password mgr? Have to write my own to be sure of author's intentions. But then also sure mgr will have dumb flaws.

From Inside Edward Snowden’s Life as a Robot:

Wizner had to jump on a phone call during a meeting with his whistleblower client. When he got off the phone, he found that Snowden had rolled the bot into civil liberties lawyer Jameel Jaffer’s office and was discussing the 702 provision of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. “It was kind of cool,” Wizner says.

It is neat but they’re marketing video is at times strangely terrifying. Put different music on when the Susan-bot comes up behind the unknowing Mark and this could be a horror movie trailer.
