The Skein hash proposed for SHA-3 boasts some impressive speed results, which I suspect would be applicable for the Threefish block cipher at its heart - but, if Skein is approved for SHA-3, would this imply that Threefish is considered secure as well...

The question however.
Putting it positively, if someone finds a weakness in Threefish then this does not imply that Skein is also insecure.
The security of Skein does not imply the security of Threefish.

If I create an HTTP java.net.URL and then call openConnection() on it, does it necessarily imply that an HTTP post is going to happen? I know that openStream() implies a GET. If so, how do you perform one of the other HTTP verbs without having to work...

This class has a setRequestMethod method to specify which HTTP method you want to use .
But if the protocol of the URL is HTTP, you'll get a HttpURLConnection as a return object .
No it does not.

Bare with me if this question is plain stupid...
When I talk to an developer from the Microsoft ASP.NET world and he uses the word "Webservice", does that word in every case imply a specific data format (XML? SOAP?)?

In particular, REST and SOAP are quite different....
In my view, it can be anything that's over http/https, and intended for calling by an application rather than a user's browser .
This is a decent overview.
The term Webservice itself is language-agnostic.

When writing a SQL statement in SQL Server 2005, does the READUNCOMMITTED query hint imply NOLOCK or do I have to specify it manually too?
So is:
With (NoLock, ReadUnCommitted)
the same as:
With (ReadUnCommitted)

The NOLOCK hint has nothing to do with the index options .
I think you can say that
ReadUnCommitted has the abilities of NoLock
However you cannot say that
NoLock has the abilities of ReadUnCommitted

Simple question: I have a WinForms button, and I want to make it both (conditionally) invisible and disabled (to be sure that if someone clicks in the space where the invisible button lives, it won't activate it.) Does button.Visible = false also imply...

EDIT: To clarify, based on other responses and comments, the button... .
Clicking in the area where it would appear (or rolling in and out of that area) were it visible will not cause an event to fire .
If the control is not visible, it is effectively disabled .

Does including DISTINCT in a SELECT query imply that the resulting set should be sorted?
I don't think it does, but I'm looking for a an authoritative answer (web link).
I've got a query like this:

If you want of circumstances in which a DISTINCT in Oracle does not imply a sort, the most important of which.
A sort for that calculation does not in any way imply that the result set will be sorted.

In day to day programs I wouldn't even bother thinking about the possible performance hit for coding against interfaces rather than implementations. The advantages largely outweigh the cost. So please no generic advice on good OOP.

Interfaces generally imply a few hits to performance (this however may change depending PC in the code segment.
It would imply a performance hit
The designer should be able to prove his opinion.

When you say "thin data access layer", does this mainly mean you are talking about writing your SQL manually as opposed to relying on an ORM tool to generate it for you?

That probably depends on who says it, but for me a thin data access layer would imply.

If the signatures have changed in the source code, the signatures will change in the resulting binary and, hence, the resulting binaries will be incompatible .
Yes, source incompatibility implies binary incompatibility.
