A Dutch Life

Increased attack surface is bad, very bad.

This final paragraph is interesting:

While this vulnerability applies to both Mac and Windows machines, Apple has done a remarkable job introducing security holes in the Windows version of Safari that are not present in the version designed to run on Macs. Since Safari for Windows came out of the beta phase, Apple has patched at least 17 vulnerabilities. In the same time period, Apple fixed just 12 security flaws in the Mac version.

Of course many of the fanboys who pitched in last time will just blame the user again for being “stupid”.

One thing I don’t like about Amsterdam is….That the birds have evolved an ability to shit directly, and accurately, onto bike seats. The first time this happened, I was in a hurry, and had very few options. Today, Daniel has evolved to carry some “Wet Wipes” in his bag at all times.
