What's your job?
This may seem like a silly question to some, but I think it's often easy for us to forget what our job really is. I'm going to write this from the perspective of a Software Developer, but it applies equally well to all job functions. As programmers, we have often ...Why The Mission Matters
A good friend who is also a Camaldolese Monk, was visiting us this weekend. Like so many of us, our friend lives in a wonderful nexus of contradictions. Not only is he a monk, but he travels the world, singing and teaching about the monastic life. Traveling and being ...Real Life Journey

These notes are in preparation for the Einstein Alley Panel June 23, 2008. The wall street journal reports today that medieval jousting is back in vogue in Europe. What's interesting to me about this is that the reporter Max Colchester specifically credits the internet with bringing jousting back to ...Never trust user input
One of the most common security issues I see in code from new web developers (and even some experienced ones) is not sanitizing user input. They trust user input to have always come from a non-adversarial user interacting with the site through a web browser. Given the HTTP(S) protocol, there is ...Watching your code execute
When I was a younger (and more foolish programmer) I was fortunate enough to learn from some talented software developers. One of the many important lessons I learned was the benefits of watching your code excute. Now, to some, that may sound as exciting as watching the grass grow. But ...Alberto Molina on Einstein Alley Panel on Thriving in the New Social Internet

A reasonable question to ask really. My main audience at this point is the development staff at Topaz Group. We are separated both by space and time.

Last time I reviewed one of two books on security that I had recently read. This time I'll review the other book - Secure Coding: Princeiples & Practices by Mark G.

Greetings,
Last month we promised a party and we're delivering TWO. My Luu's Spring Fling is sold out, and the very next day, Amanda Taffy has been working hard on a Best Buddies benefit at Plumm. The Events calendar is full of excuses to get together.
Your participation is THE KEY to this and many many thanks are due to the 50 Alums and friends who took a couple days out last week to work on the strategic planning retreat for YAAMNY.
In addition to the several key initiatives coming out of that retreat I'd like to specifically highlight Doreen Oliver's new leadership of the Arts and Entertainment group and Amanda Taffy's continuing work in the Public Service group - details below. If you would like to work on other important events, such as professional development events and talks, please get in touch with us!
Last but not least please have a look at Jaradoa Theatre's new production: The Small of Her Back which opens tomorrow and is hosting a special YAAMNY night May 19th. And for an extra special treat, see below for a very limited seating dinner with the founders of Jaradoa hosted by yours truly.
Book Review: The Security Development Lifecycle
