    While I agree with you, I can imagine people who prefer being blameless towards accidental mistakes (engineer ssh'd into a wrong host and dropped prod DB instead of testing) but demand proper punishment of "misfeatures" creat

    Greatly detailed report and impressive resolution speed, indeed, but sadly it fell behind the cracks regarding disclosure.

    Sounds interesting! Will see how it works out. Ran into an issue: when I clicked an article I wanted to read, "swipe left" was registered, instead. Good that you have an "undo" option, but maybe the "swipe threshold

    I also like how they mention marathon. Indeed, you don't start training for marathon by running all 42km on the first day, are you? No, for some of us in our current shape even running 5km is hard! So we should start with smaller thing

    As a user of noVNC, I'd be interested in such comparison, too. I haven't used Guacamole, but as I understand, sansnomme's point is that Guacamole compared to noVNC is like Visual Studio compared to GCC - while GCC and noVNC o
