And how many frameworks can you count in a win forms or wpf application? If we're going to count frameworks, there'd be no end it. As I once said, programming is abstraction upon abstraction. Like an onion, a Russia doll or better

While everyone is busy debating whether scraping is bad or legal, I just can't stop thinking a out Antigate. Of the sweatshops that must have been setup to deliver this service. That, is to me the true horror of this story.

I facilitated a class yesterday and I hammered on proper semantic html and only using WAI-ARIA where totally necessary like in tabs. Glad to see its more or less a consensus.

In this case, they installed malware which is akin to breaking in. It isn't simply like the Silk Road case where a misconfigured server leaked an ip. Which is akin to peering in through the cracks.

This is totally awesome. Do you already have plans to build it as a mobile app? Do you have someone to build it? I'd totally be willing to give it a go.

I doubt it's claiming Tesla cars are safer than every other car. It was just to highlight that their cars are very safe. How is that PR BS when it actually happened?

I'm going to say this because I'm in a similar situation now. For weeks, I've been having pains in my chest, back and sides. I know for sure something is wrong. And I fear I may be dying. But being unsure where my next meal

This is simply why I've never liked Laravel. Don't get me wrong, I love the packages esp. Eloquent and Blade (validaton and translation not far behind) and I reuse them in all my projects now. I simply hate the "magic".

I don't know who gives them advice, but that's just horrible. First, people ran to bitbucket visit if the per repo pricing. Now that that's been fixed, we're faced with high costs per user. That difference can be used t

Per repo pricing was why we didn't go with github. Atlassian was our only option till we shopped around till we found Visual Studio Team Services. For a team of 4. Simply great. No need to pay for Jira or anything at this point. Now, I

Luckily, there is serious competition here. MTN does it, Airtel does it and Vodafone I think does it as a package. If you currently don't offer some sort of package or free service, you're out of the competition.

Well finally. Whether or not they have a presence, operate there, are required to comply or whatsoever is not an issue. They simply can't comply. If they could initially they can't anymore. End-to-end encryption made sure of that

Right now, it's more of a benefit to phone manufacturers to pre-install whatsapp than it is to whatsapp itself. Same goes for the telcos. Offering free whatsapp and Facebook is a thing. And it's not because whatsapp had a "d
