Probably not, and you will be doing so many string manipulations that it might not be worth trying. There are a few libraries for getting CGI parameters, but that's all I'm aware of. If your reason for wanting to code in C is for performanc

Perhaps "technical" and "pragmatic" are the wrong terms to use, and the conflict is about being detail-oriented versus focusing on the broader scope.

I recommend taking the job if the company has any senior developers that you can learn from. You will learn as much from working with them and producing code as you will from school, and after a year you should have saved up enough to make

It might help to define "better". Are you most concerned with virus detection, system performance, or adware and bloatedness?

Tool around Huffington Post, Daily Kos, and CiF and you'll run into plenty of people who go well beyond that into deflecting any criticism of Iran, denying that there is any possibility that Iran might be developing a nuclear weapon rather

Why is it so hard to find entry-level work? Why are there far more openings for senior developers and project managers than for second-tier coders, and very few openings anywhere for a first-tier coder with no experience?

At minimum wage or slightly above, you would need to work about 60 hours a week to get by. You should make it a priority to find roommates to split costs. California community colleges charge upwards of $500 a unit for out-of-state students

It's the same fallacious argument that they could not possibly have rolled out the same improvements if they named it Firefox 4.10 instead of implying that they are rewriting the the whole product from scratch every two weeks.

Any copying of a work under copyright is a crime unless there is an exemption in law. It's deny by default. Google and Amazon probably pay license fees to the RIAA. MP3.com was shut down for making unlicensed copies of songs that the users

"Say I've legally purchased an MP3 from Amazon and I decide to use my UberUpload to host the file so I can access it from any device." You would be committing copyright infringement at that point. The rest is irrelevant.

The idea of corporations being people goes back to Rome when someone decided that the laws regarding disputes between persons could be applied to an organization as well. Corpus == body, the body of people being treated as a person in consi

Another worst practice is referring to JSON as the "REST file format" as ESRI's products did two years ago when I last worked with them.

This is a lie. The "acts carried out by the Israeli army in Gaza" involved telephoning people ahead of airstrikes and using dummy munitions to get civilians out of an area before attacking enemy army facilities. This is the opposite of inte

htmlspecialchars() is for html sanitation. For the sql in insert.php you will want mysql_real_escape_string(). insert.php writes to the database. You may want to wrap that inside some kind of session checking so that only logged-in users ar

PHP was on the right side of history in history, in the 1990s when it was a new product. Today? It has a lot of competition and is dropping in popularity, although it is still good enough for many purposes. PHP is open source so it will be
