The truth is that even with a strict definition, it is subject to change. The meaning of a word or term today may not be the same tomorrow, languages evolve with the way people communicate, not with the way they get defined. 0-day is a good

I would be opposed for one main reason: The extra overhead that supporting an additional language implies with hybrid websites (even if you disregard JS completely, external code like advertisements would introduce it). People can claim tha

Haha, I forgot to mention that. Basically, the only important information Kickstarter gets from any card are the last 4 digits, whether it's Visa, Master Card, AMEX, etc., and the expiration date.

What Kickstarter save is a unique token, ex. da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709 (not a real token, just an example). The token can only be used with the private / public key pairs that Stripe provided to them, so even if a hacker

Of course compile time matters when features like modules provide a significant improvement. My question was more focused in having to work around the compiler by doing micro-optimizations, or avoiding some features that "may be heavy&

by Aldo_MX 12y ago
Does compile time really matter that much? I mean, unless you are building a huge project which is expected to take hours to compile, I don't see much benefit in optimizing compile times.

As a user, I don't care if your app will self-destruct if you don't get access to permissions like "read and send SMSs". I simply don't want a free to play game to scan my SMSs for advertisement purposes.
