Ada and SPARK power many safety critical things like airplanes fighter jets space rockets railways and so on. I've been recently trying to learn Ada and it's a beauty. Many people have misconceptions or think it's obsolete so

I generally agree with the ideas presented but I think we miss an even larger point. I should probably write this at a better time as a blog post, but briefly: Why are we trying so hard to "abstract" out the database? If you have

I don't mean to discount or take away from the difficulties that the author is addressing but as a migrant I can't help but to laugh a bit at some of the complaints I hear here and there about 'sticking out' and 'is

These look great in a video but good luck having a pleasant experience actually using it. Companies like to pretend that they have some magic AI that makes things just work but we simply aren't there yet, and far from it.

There's no problem with 20 other specs. I didn't mean spec as in a universal standard. I meant a language that defines its syntax and functionality as a spec so it can be implemented in the same way in many languages so you can pi

It would be interesting if the templating languages stopped being "for X programming language". I'd like to see a sane templating language that is based on a spec and it could be supported under different programming language

P2P is a very bad choice of words for what you want to communicate. You have to say something like "Your data will not pass through CloudRail".

Genuinely not sure if the demo is a joke or not. I said "hello" it said "DIAL OH OH". I said "Apple" it said "GET KENT". WTF?

If you think any technical solution is going to solve these things you are delusional. It will only create an arms-race that will make things worse. We need laws.

They don't have to "bribe" anyone. They can easily plant their own agents inside the company as employees. ("undercover agent" getting a job at the company like a regular person) I'd be very very surprised if t

Without the other context the random password itself is not useful to the service. People exchange full login details in email and IM all the time, this simply helps with the problem of having them sit in the history and archives indefinite

People love to bash Java for AbstractAdapterFactories and the like but it really is not that bad and it has its own time and place, not that I'm particularly a fan of it. I'm not even a Java developer but I understand it quite wel
