But if enough people start giving up from windows since they are using it as a game only OS, game publishers will have to take action. Yes it's a dream, but maybe one day... maybe one day...

Yeah unfortunately it's how things work. I'm not criticizing, lots of people do it, but in this case I just felt it was a little bit too forced.

But you have to agree this is a very specific case. It's a real life product, at a very low price with a very specific niche. If this was a rule and not an exception, every big company in the world would be using these ads. Another point is

He's simply profiting on the bots article's fame. If the facebook bots article never existed, this advertise wouldn't exist too.

Amazing how legal systems are made to bend at the will of biased government interests. If the leaks from Assange were from North Korea or any US "enemy", he'd be getting diplomatic immunity or any other kind of law bending to protect him. T

Unfortunately I think only the internet stars have even a chance of living like this... The irony is that these superstars normally already have huge paychecks :/

But it still doesn't make PHP a good programming language. I am doomed to fix legacy PHP projects for the rest of my life, because they are so badly written they simply cannot be upgraded to newer versions of PHP. Yes it's popular and I've

As stated in the article, it's not wrong to do what you're saying, but the article is talking about people that can do that and should do that. Quoting the article: When it gets to the point where you start measuring downtime in dollars rat

Very well put. Every good programmer knows the underlying parts of what he is using, and unfortunately the new trend is that programmers don't need to know this stuff anymore. It's true that in some cases they don't have to, but they should

I don't think Twitter is as stupid as people think. They surely have thought about all of these options and soon we'll see how that is going to play out. I think this is a little of a biased analysis, and without real data, there is no way

Unfortunately on legacy systems someone else chose PHP for him a long time ago... Poor developer that has to deal with this stuff. Been there.

Unfortunately you can't compare .NET to PHP. Ever.

Exactly. The only reason this bug got to production, is because the function accepted an empty string parameter in the first place.

by Draiken 14y ago
Unfortunately PHP is consistently inconsistent. It lets people do that, and it won't ever break. Until they "make it right". Sure the guy didn't test the parameter as being empty, but if you pass a string instead of a float, an error should

You obviously never had to work on a huge project that has to support IE browsers. My company has to do that and we spend countless hours on IE specific tasks. It works on IE10? great! I don't know if it will on IE11. Or if microsoft will f
