Every "web developer" should read the first three chapters of the Cricket book. The profound ignorance (that many web developers have) of DNS is inexcusable: http://www.amazon.com/DNS-BIND-5th-Cricket-Liu/dp/0596100574

C++ and Python pretty much run everything, everywhere. Standard, open languages are hard to beat when you want to fully control your development stack and not worry about future control issues. I wish go was an ISO standard like C++, I'd be

Many of us have users (actual valid users) who live in and visit China and other countries in the world. So we don't block a IP because we think it is in China. Use rate limiting and block bad IPs that are brute-forcing services (don't lo

I like people who tell it like they see it. Sure, he could tone it down a bit, but I would prefer he does not. When you guard your words and hold back how you really feel, you are not doing anyone any favors. Saying nice, comforting things

Everyone is an asshole in someone's mind. You'll never please all people, and when you don't, they'll think you're an asshole. That's life. Don't let what they think bother you.

If the manager does not provide direction, ask for it. If they still do not provide direction, set your own. The grass always looks greener on the other side. Sometimes, you are the problem, not the manager. Reminds me of the story about th

MySQL is the visual basic of SQL databases. Anyone can set one up and use it. The problem is that many non-technical people use MySQL and then think they know all about DBs. Ask them what ACID is, or about foreign key constraints. You'll ge

DMCA is not what you think. She does not hold the copyright to her nude photos unless she took the photos herself. The photographer or the company that employs the photographer holds the copyright. A valid DMCA take-down notice, may only be

Very well put. I agree. Freelancing is a much better word. After gaining many years of experience, then one will have the insight and ability to actually consult.

When I see young men and women consulting, I'm always curious how it's working for them. Do your consultation customers care that you are so young? I'm genuinely curious about this. Most successful consultants (that I know) have decades of
