I try to run my articles through my kind colleagues and ex-colleagues before any publishing. It helps clarifying bits that are potentially misunderstood. People are however a bit shy so I don't get style recommendations often

It is quite illuminating to see the exchange for instance between Michel Foucault and Noam Chomsky to get a sense of the difference of tone and focus between european and american intellectuals. https://www.youtube.com/watch

Code is really hard to work with without the theory that surrounds it, and is alive in the people who worked on it. Peter Naur - Programming As Theory Building http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/Naur.pdf

If you want to plug this one, you can plug and have a look at a open source, very easy to use alternative called FASTbuild: http://fastbuild.org

I'm fighting with this daily. Working on a medium size desktop software application, seeing compile times increasing in the past months as developers use modernist C++. Past a certain point, long compile times make it harder to improve

That's interesting because it is based on the same principles of not letting developers do harmful thing as a way to guarantee security.

As scandox I did not mean to be dismissive, just to highlight the technique has been used in the past, as a reference for discussion and evaluation. It is hard to imagine how one could preserve local variables w/o knowledge about the p

Calibre has a job/scheduler system, I can't give you the rundown because that was some time ago. However the documentation seems rather complete: https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/news.html Basically you can set up

Indeed it is a good thing. What I'm just a little bit weary of is equating that sort of improvement with increasing overall security. We went there already with Java and this hasn't stopped Java from being an attack vector. The wa

My standpoint is that: - Less exploits is an improvement in frequency - More security is a question of limiting impact

Nevertheless these language specific solutions are completely opaque to an end user. These are software developer centric. As an end user I cannot inspect how these were applied and therefore develop trust in the end product. There's a

Although I am not against improving the safety of languages we use for system programming, the model that Rust advocates are pushing of "preventing mistakes" as a way to make systems secure doesn't convince me. Mistakes (and

It is not wise to even implement a lot of logic in the JS part of QML, as the JS interpreter there is quite a bit more primitive than something like V8. Your performance will suffer if you attempt to write anything too complicated in JS ins
