If you don't care about issues or wikis, it's now time to create a habit for using the command line (or the dillo plugin which automates this process): dir=$(mktemp -d) git clone --no-checkout --depth 1 https://git

Complexity comes gradually. You will not find reasonable to reparse HTML spit out from Dreamweaver or Word to fit js/cgi parts in there but withstanding 5 years of work you may find perfectly sane to compile JSX. Plus most of the peopl

No, block at firewall-level. I never implied you should have to "study", "scan" the attacker's request: drop it. You don't owe net-neutrality to a botnet instance. That's just for when you should need to b

I hope he's doing well, wherever he is. An active community around Dillo sparkles my wanting of hacking on it, Dpi (especially filters) is the best plugin system a browser could have imho.

A lot more lighterweight, and nowadays it's good to have less (it has less CSS compatibility, less html compatibility and no JS).

PHP stops you from being clever with it by making you angry at times. It's very predictable too, on its hardly avoidable, disgusting pitfalls. But things may still change for the worse with that process of Scala-ification they are do

I've seen a bit of SaaS and legacy websites-with-invoice-system doing that, with e.g. wkhtmltopdf. It isn't a lightweight solution, but it's a good hammer for a strange nail, a lot of off-the-shelf report systems suck.

You're thinking too much in the realm of user-friendly. Of course on openBSD you would enclose work programs in a xephyr and an ad hoc rdomain, or connect a xephyr to a vmm's Xenocara with its own tap device. Xephyrs don't
