Actually, the question everyone asks (first) is: "what is it?" Unfortunately, this question seldom gets answered at all . Which is OK, because it says a lot about whatever is being peedled.

Seems like the GDPR is working as expected. If your company can't be bothered to apply some common sense to handling user data (which is what the GDPR is mostly about, if you take a couple of hours to actually read it), then we're

Actually, it's easier for small and especially new companies to comply. Now, maybe they don't want to, but I don't feel any kind of sympathy for cost cutting on my privacy. What you say it's an unintended side effect,

The article mentions Informix, which has also been an IBM product for a number of years now. That makes it at least five major RDBMS code bases inside IBM. I spent a few years managing DB2 instances at a previous employer and I've seen

The Romans called this style of management "decimation." It's unfortunate that it's still fashionable in the 21st century. Also, this sounds straight out of the Ministry of Peace: "It also said the moves have genera

This is so misguided I don't even know where to start, and it's the same line of reasoning that has been degenerating the meaning of DevOps for a while. 1. There is no such thing as NoOps (when something's in production, what

I'm still unsure of the usefulness of SQL Server on Linux. I don't see the point of running SQL Server on Linux (I'd rather choose PostgreSQL or something), nor do I see the point of choosing Linux if I'd already settled

Devops was never a profession. But I think it's dead anyway. The problem devops intended to solve was the lack of proper communication and mutual understanding between developers and systems administrators. It has failed to solve this

The article misses one important reason why allowing UDP from the browser is a bad idea: UDP provides no congestion control. Given the (lack of) quality of what gets developed for the browser, allowing it to send raw UDP would most likely c

It seems the parser is implemented as an nginx module, thus having access to its memory. CloudFlare terminates SSL in nginx and establishes SSL connections to their upstreams, but inside nginx everything is cleartext. Private keys are not e

Equating "ops" with "tools" is just another symptom of the problems I was referring to. Tools are not the solution. Tools do not replace process, practice and goals. Tools are just tools.

At the first glance, this seems to be a way to bring the 3rd world taxi experience to the 21st century. Really, no taxi licenses, no requirements on cars, no driver verification, no GPS, paying cash... I feel safe already.

It may be true that one of the issues with Python 3 strings is people not grokking them, thus littering their code with useless/redundant/wrong `.decode()` and `.encode()` calls. But I say this is a problem with Python 3 itself ,
