HN user
Related: Does anyone know of a good-quality place to go for discussion that doesn't center around news and links? Something akin to MetaFilter or HN in terms of standards, but not focused on aggregation. Are mailing lists/Usenet groups good for this?
Ah, Disconnect was the issue. Thank you!
The "Connect with Facebook" button on Stellar's dashboard appears to be broken, or at least for me, anyway. Clicking it results in a "Loading..." message that never seems to go away.
Just yesterday I used http://epub2mobi.com/ to convert a public domain ePub file to MOBI, then sent that to my Kindle's email address. It was delivered wirelessly to my Kindle. Are you sure this hasn't changed? Or is epub2mobi doing something to circumvent this?
Same for my Kindle. What's the point of this?
Only as the dropper. Presumably the other parts of the malware (libworker.so, etc.) could be repurposed and coupled with a different infection system.
Note that it's not just a "web" language. It runs on the JVM (as well as in the browser), and can be used as a more featureful Java replacement. To this end, it has very nice interop support with Java [1], helped by their similar syntax/structure.

There's a bit about it on the linked page (look for the description of "dynamic" blocks), plus a tutorial on their blog: http://ceylon-lang.org/blog/2013/02/26/ceylon-in-the-browser...
The first production-ready version was released in late 2013: http://ceylon-lang.org/blog/2013/11/12/ceylon-1/
The language is still relatively new, and under active development: https://github.com/ceylon
