Oh, that's cute. The mere fact that you say that makes it clear you have no idea who Trump is.

This is one of my pet peeves - complaining about technically unnecessary, but fully benign uses of cat. Yes, 'cat FILENAME | blush "some text"' and 'blush "some text" < FILENAME' do the same thing.

I could be wrong, but I read valarauca1's comment as "I’m doubtful. ag and rg use a lot of smart optimizations to get their speed."

It's not overhead unless you are intent on only making a hello world app and stopping there. Assuming you are going to make something more involved, you are going to use those extra features. Optimizing the size of the executable for t

I don't know how you can argue that isn't true - loading up Github runs all sorts of javascript you can't reasonably inspect or control. Whether or not that is a bad thing, or, how bad it is, is certainly a reasonable thing t

He's upset he can't send text messages or interact with Bluetooth from html? Wtf. How is this even an article. I'm angry my toaster isn't batting 0.500 for the Nats. Seriously, nothing to see here.

It seems like the author likes Java quite a bit. Kotlin, not being Java, seems to be his primary complaint. Take his first point - Kotlin allows variable shadowing. He doesn't say why it's bad or how it caused a bug, he just says

I don't doubt its a hard problem. If there was a simple, obvious better way to do it, I imagine we'd have it by now.

I'm always surprised by what a mess doing what seem like simple file operations is. Maybe even more surprised that everything seems to generally work pretty well even with those issues. Even "I want to save this file" require

Who are "they"? Google? Mozilla? Microsoft? Apple? The 100s of CAs? And, are they all working together? And there hasn't been a single whistleblower to expose this? What do you mean "listen"? CAs can invalidate cert

This reads like a conspiracy theory. Who are the pro HTTPS everywhere people that are _also_ secretly trying to further censorship? This would have to be a fairly vast conspiracy, but, you don't provide any evidence.

You make it sound like this is a bad thing. Regardless of if it also benefits Google's business model, both of these things benefit users and website owners. The only thing that benefits from injecting ads into a page or deeper ISP tra

A good spec should define all those corner cases. With Json, it's possible for two bug free libraries to take the same input and produce a different output.

by dagenix 9y ago
"Insane complexity"? You mean that it actually has a spec instead of the back of a business card with no implementations that agree on what is actually valid?

"objectively insane", "over-specified". I'm not sure what "objectively sane" is, but, I guess something specified that way would be a good thing - provided its not "over-specified" since that wou

So if JSON parsers can't agree on what JSON actually is, that isn't a problem?

Well, it sounds like we are in fierce agreement then. Sorry for misunderstanding your comment earlier. I've been interesting lately in exploring at aiohttp, and your comment about it being too strict is certainly very enlightening. And

I fully agree that there can always be garbage coming back and that any robust client needs to be aware of that happening. I'm sorry if I read too much into what you were saying, but, it sounded like you were arguing that the change sh

We can't fix every problem. And fixing every problem shouldn't be a gating function for fixing some problems. Web servers generally want to send a complete response. And sometimes some middle box chops off the response halfway thr

This is one of the most frustrating issues I've had with the requests/urllib3 libraries. I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with half of an HTML page or a PDF or a PNG. And even if it did, I certainly don't know how

Wow. I'm impressed by the shear density of racism in such a short post. Bold move posting as "anon90". So, I guess you know it's racist or you'd use your real account.

> Interesting, thanks for telling me this. But how much better? I mean, a GPU with 1024 CUDA cores surely cannot surpass 1024 CPUs. So all we need to do is bump up 100000 to a slightly higher number to make it GPU-proof if that's th

My point is that this is dangerous. The security of this method is equal to the strength of you master password + the least secure website you use. If that website has a password breach, the only thing standing between an attacker and a co

Disadvantage: If any website you use has it's password database leaked, an attacker can then do an offline brute force attack to recover your master password. Then, the attacker can then generate your password to every other site you u
