From the article: "The worst of the harbingers? Repeat customers, those with a tendency to purchase a product like Diet Crystal Pepsi not just once, but over and over again. These customers really, really like the products that end up

Partially because McDonalds/PHP lets you eat/deploy by cramming/uploading the food/file directly into your mouth/server. No utensils/tools required.

If it's Showdown (which, given your description, it must be) then I love you. /dex was incredibly helpful when wending my way through Battle Maison.

Same here (although my living dex has since been deposited in Bank). I was super psyched to take this quiz and then was immediately disappointed by the first question. Too bad, coulda been funny.

I get a _lot_ of mileage out of being able to chain promises like that. If I really need to resolve a promise to a promise, I can resolve to an object wrapping the promise and then unwrap it on the receiving side.

async.js has 'waterfall' and 'parallel', both of which take an array of functions, and it's (imo) much clearer to declare them as anonymous functions inline than make named functions and then pass an array of names

This is awful. Shell commands are not guaranteed to be idempotent, people! These should all be of the form exec($_POST, not exec($_GET.

No, you're totally right here. I think matdes skimmed over the critical "without having everyone in on it" part of your post.

Yup.

I know you're trolling, but some people might not, so I thought it might be helpful to point out that they are actually discovering and fixing vulnerabilities. For example, CVE-2010-5298: http://www.tedunangst.com/flak

Link to where the XKCD comic was debunked or shown obsolete? Most of the responses I've seen to it were of the form "well, yeah, but you're not gonna remember a hundred different passphrases, it's much better to use a p

I mean this in the nicest way: I'd just like to point out that before Kickstarter, pretty much your only option would have been to scrounge up the money yourselves, invest it along with your sweat, blood, tears, and time into making th

Heartbleed doesn't give you access to storage - it gives you access to the raw heap of the process that's linked to OpenSSL. Passwords are typically transmitted unhashed, albeit encrypted by TLS, and the application decrypts the

I'm kind of sad that this is a throwaway account because you're posting good responses, that are technically competent and are actually specific to the bug discussed in the article, to people who are either less informed or are t

These aren't "tricks" or "abuse". They're design patterns.

The ideal resolution for Tesla is for the guy to drop the suit. This is what they're trying to accomplish by laying their cards on the table. IANAL either, but I'm not sure what risk you're talking about - do you suspect th

My main objection to it is that since the OP is almost certainly going to accept their own answer before other people can post, there may be other, better answers that arrive late and don't get as much attention.

This was exactly my thought, too. Upon investigating Project Spark, it seems like something more akin to a pumped-up LittleBigPlanet than an actual game development framework. I'm sure folks will have fun playing around with it, but

If anything, "I would like to personally apologize to Julie" would mean that defunkt personally wronged her, not the company. Maybe he's just sorry because she's obviously hurt and things didn't work out for the bes

Promises are great for replacing callbacks in the sense of "Here is a function I want you to call once and only once". You can't convert the callback parameter of http.Server.listen() to a promise. I don't really get th

There is always room for misinterpretation. You will never be able to defend yourself 100% against people with poor reading comprehension.

For future reference, the bad API/app design is worse.
