I mean if making critical decisions about who you want to trust, where you want to store your code and data, and how you want to operate your day to day business, based on an evolving market is being a "brat" then yeah. I'm n

Since when do new systems get integrated into Java, then officially deprecated for removal less than 5 years later? New technologies take time to be integrated into existing stacks, and new projects take time to come to market. I recognize

Really hope these talks fall through and nothing comes of it. Too many bad experiences with Microsoft buying something out, mismanaging it, and it goes down the drain. As much as I love GitHub, I won't be using a Microsoft-owned GitHub

By far the biggest part of attack mitigation in my experience is out-scaling the attack. A well written and configured application stack can handle a decent amount of traffic itself before becoming bogged down processing malicious traffic,

I'm curious as to the specific reasoning behind perpetually pushing towards higher per-machine bandwidth. Is it primarily backed by squeezing more usefulness (and therefore decreasing costs elsewhere) out of existing hardware, or is it

On one hand I'm really enthusiastic to see attack mitigation tech like that becoming available for more people, but on the other hand I'm worried that this is just another step in centralization of The Internet. We've seen Cl

That's what this article is arguing against. The "good practice" is more precedent than anything. Sure, we can argue that it "adds security" to the mix by adding a separate layer between the user and the actual plac

A bit disappointed in the article, as the bulk of it is simply quoting various viewpoints, some of which disagree with each other. I'd be much more interested in the thought process that occurred for them to reach the conclusion they d

Quite a thorough review, and crowdsourced nonetheless. I wonder if this is the type of thing that can gain actual traction to fund reviews of libraries, or if this was more of a once-off thing caused by the library being relatively cheap (c

Anyone know of a equivalent libraries like GenStage for other languages? (Java, NodeJS, etc) I'd definitely be able to put to use things like flow limiters and queuing and such, but none of my company's projects use Elixir :(

True, but there are certain scenarios (think gaming, VoIP, etc) where you can't really decentralize in the way that traditional websites can. On top of that, many lower-tier websites and service companies have to use budget hosts sim

Unfortunately, all of these "Best Practices" are "spend more money," which effectively means the attacker wins. They're forcing you to spend more money, even if they're not attacking you now/recently. Woul
