I'd take a long hard look at myself, my current opportunity, and what I want to do. It would be hard to walk away from the opportunity to occasionally influence someone like Zuck, or the opportunity to occasionally influence the glob

Decoupled authentication from your application should be part of any base architecture these days. The article is thin on details, but adding SAML authentication to the mix shouldn't be terribly difficult if you have somebody on board

I think it's interesting that the consensus here is that you can't do quality in an hour. It's been forever since I blogged, but when I did I always had that block in the back of my mind that I shouldn't publish unless i

I read the article and thought it looked like a 2005 SEO article order. Has all the right words. Good length. No substance whatsoever.

Does the GDPR actually identify what information is considered personal? I haven't followed it at all. For instance, if someone posted on a message board, is it enough to rename their user to anonymous. Or do you have to go back and

On the one hand... This is 3 years after the first time I saw a Gentoo python3 only environment. On the other Python2 support will go away when the community is done with Python2. And that process goes a lot slower than I think most peopl

The problem with build systems is that people try to do too much with them. It wouldn't be so bad, if there was consistent, thorough documentation available, including for the various plugins that people put together and shared. But wh

On the surface, no. But... The end of that walking path is perpendicular to the roadway. The other end of that walking path is perpendicular to the roadway on the other side. How it behaves in the middle (not perpendicular) is irrelevant.

In California, that's a legal crosswalk and the pedestrian gets right of way. In Arizona, it is not. I'm not sure a pedestrian even gets the right of way in a marked cross walk at all times in Arizona. Different state, differen

Uber and Lyft both now verify that you have supplemental insurance. It's kind of screwy. If you have a passenger in the car, Uber/Lyft coverage is in place. If you are driving around working but no passenger, it's the driv
