It is supposed to reject requests from the addresses it does not listen on. I just found it strange that it binds on all interfaces regardless.

Incidentally, I wondered whether the Guardian has blocked the site or did something stupid, since the page took so long to load. I thought AMP stands for ACCELERATED? Edit: Actually, repeated loads take exactly as long (seven full seconds);

MS SQL mostly aims at the enterprise markets; Oracle, DB2 and MS SQL are usually considered the big three enterprise databases. MySQL was never aimed at that market. I think it's fair to say that MySQL can't be considered to opera

Those are the fast moving and the new parts of the internet. I bet that in a few years IPv6 deployment will slow down as the remaining systems become older, less maintained or even opinionated (like me). For many years to come some kind of

However, collision resistance must be still quite good for use in a general-purpose hash table or a HT that is possibly exposed to attackers, otherwise denial-of-service attacks become very easy. Many "modern" implementations (Pyt

Equal indices refer to the same entity in all places. I.e. two arrays, one for the key, one for the value. The value of the key at index n in the key array is found at the same index n in the values array.

No, they're all affected like that which is also my general observation. I'm not sure what causes it (possibly differing default font sizes, zooms or font selection). Chrome seems to generally use less defaults from the platform t
