I'm really sorry, but I'm the one who just broke it :S I was leaving a friendly message on other people's todo lists to expose a vulnerability, but somehow I ended up breaking it completely, and I regret that now. Please see

Take a look at The Strangler Pattern, coined by Martin Fowler. That approach lays out a technique for replacing each part of complexity into a modern codebase by "strangling" each unit of functionality individually. It takes time,

Personally, I never joined. I have tried, I really have. I spent so long trying to move my business over, because on paper it's a developer's dream. Everything in config files. Perfection! But in reality, I think I developed an al

Please make the bash thing, I want to see it with a fancy marketing page to mock the JS ecosystem!

I'm interested in knowing why whenever AI touches human faces it turns into nightmare soup? There must be a reason. I'm aware of how acutely familiar we are with recognising human faces, but this isn't the uncanny valley, it&

I know this is slightly off topic from OP's question, but I'm chiming in with one piece of first-hand advice: You can self host mail alongside gmail/outlook on your own domain. More than one email service can run concurrently

Can someone explain this to me? All I can see from this link is an empty GitHub repository. Not sure what I'm missing here.

Wow, this kind of article shouldn't be a thing in 2022. It reminds me of the old days of Linux when you had to hack xorg.conf to get your second monitor to work -- but now it's a hack to get your web browser to work!

Yes. I have no solution for you, but all I can say is that I feel you. My coping mechanism was to work freelance; less hours and more "fun" projects, but freelance work also comes with its own flavor of bs, so I think it's ju

I wish I could do this to tell DDG that I don't want to see any amazon.com products in my listing. I fell out with Amazon years ago and have been shopping independently since, but they have a stronghold over search engines with their o

I love YAML as much as I like treading on a rake.

This is a lovely product. I would like to use it and compare to jq, which I already use to query the contents of a JSON structure from the CLI.

Came to comment about PHP specifically. Even in my local town, a PHP salary can be anything from a blog mangler @ £20K to a bespoke tool developer @ £100K, both just happening to share the same programming language.

I could not solve Twitter, whether I used a third-party app, a separate account, or browser extensions. The solution I came to has genuinely brought joy into my daily life: delete my account completely, and don't look back. I highly re

This is so fantastic to see. Like many responses here, I'm projecting my own 15 year old self into your position, and all I can say is keep it up - the future will be great for you.

My poor script allowed binary content to be shoveled in. I took it down for my own sake. I'll put it online again some time.

Great! Thank you. Feel free to use my code, or fork the repo. I will put this back online at some point after re-thinking the way it persists.

OP here. There were no scaling issues while this was getting hammered. PHP has native support for sockets, so can handle thousands of connections, no better or worse than any other language. The system buffers up incoming messages and your

Illegal content uploaded via my naive websocket implementation. I thought it was best to turn it off than fix while it was "hot".

hey, with web sockets I am a noob. I'm generally quite ok with internet security as a concept, but I was massively naive in my implementation here, and one very obvious vulnerability in my code was allowing to store anything the connec

This last week I've been isolating due to contracting COVID at Christmas. Not fun... With my time recovering in bed, I finished off learning about WebSockets by building https://www.walloftext.art and uploaded the code to
