They do have a PIN but you don't enter it every time you authenticate. The PIN is used to configure the YubiKey itself.

Maybe this weird strategy exists elsewhere, but he's supposedly teaching Borland Turbo C with the small memory model. That compiler uses a run-time call stack.

Fraud. You have protections under both systems (debit & credit), but the ones on the credit card are much more in your favor. With credit cards it's pretty hard to end up on the hook for the fraudulent charges (50$ limit on liabili

After 5 seconds of looking at it, I'm noticing that my scroll wheel doesn't work and that typing in Hebrew results in Unicode boxes. Meaning, it is acting different enough from my browser that I'm noticing it.

Handle the "business side". From 30 minutes reading about this and no prior knowledge about the project or the people involved, this seems to be the probably wrong timeline: 1. Developer starts a project, hacks on it for a while.

Not salary, employee costs. But yeah, 250k$ salaries for engineers are uncommon even at Google.

Say what now? And did Humble Bundle support fix your issue? Man, I remember when a major Humble Bundle selling point was being DRM free...

That doesn't make sense to me. GitHub integration is already pretty easy, the GitHub API is fine. Heroku for example is already pretty well integrated with GitHub, and they didn't have to buy anything.

No, the point is that compilers are a different sort of beast. Writing a C compiler is not like other side-projects. It explicitly exercises a whole bunch of basic Computer Science skills, so if you can write a compiler, you obviously got a

Hmm, let's also allow you to edit text in those windows. And it should be extensible, of course. With a dialect of LISP! We could call it "emacs".

If you're making an emergency stop, that is, you need to stop fifteen seconds ago, then yes, you're better off just slamming the breaks and letting the ABS do its thing. If you are not a highly trained stunt driver, I'd bet t

When you add helium to your tank on a dive, the resulting mix is usually called "Trimix". When you get to technical dives requiring Trimix, one often dives with several different gasses. The gas you breathe at the deepest point of

Sure. In Haskell you join them, but just not allowing it perhaps better. Also, you can still nest them in Kotlin, since you can have a nullable type inside generics.

Well, not really. What Kotlin has is exactly an Optional type. It's just a different syntax for it.

Define output. Once you get to a certain level of competence, you can easily produce lines of codes, so if that's your metric then the output plateaus after some years. A developer can only type so much each day, after all.

Of course you can and should always ask your colleagues questions in order to understand their point of view and way of thinking. But that's not what Socratic questioning is. It is specifically when you ask pointed questions, pretendin

The problem with Socratic questioning is that it assumes a teacher-student type of relationship, or at least a superior-subordinate one. If that's not the case, and once someone recognizes what it is that you're doing, they may be

"based" is alt-right slang. It's basically a positive descriptor used for stuff they agree with. Like most of the alt-right slang, it originally had other meanings, and it's sometimes used in those meanings too... But wh
