I'm 25+ (25 and 7 months) and I just started using snap chat with some people I know. The biggest selling point is that nothing is permanent, or at least it has the illusion that nothing is permanent, you don't have to think too m

That is odd advice, the top programming languages currently used have been around for at least 19 years (python, ruby, javascript, php, java, c, objective c) and while there are new languages being developed I don't see languages like

What is an "efficency sweet spot"? When I consistently drive at the speed limit (in the Netherlands, 120km/h) I have to fill up every 4 working days. When I consistently drive 100 km/h I only have to fill up every 5 work

I use vim because it's bindings correspond with my thought process. My thought is: "Let's change the next 2 words", my fingers type c2w (change word). The bindings take quite a while to learn, I started using vi mode in

I was really excited as well, until they decided to remove the encryption completely. The nice thing about the encryption in vim was that it was a cross platform way for encrypting and decrypting plain text. I use it nearly everyday on my (

Sometimes you don't need the data to be decrypted on the host. Your crypte is still useful if the host doesn't want to decrypt anything. Javascript crypto as an alternative to SSL makes no sence, an implementation in which the ser

Then what would you call an "amazing" language. For me, go is quite amazing, because when I write something and it compiles, in 90%+ of the cases it does exactly what I wanted it to do. Something that I only achieve in python afte

You almost never want to also include the subdomains, unless you have a wildcard SSL certificate. I made that mistake, couldn't reach any other subdomain of my site because only 1 was protected by ssl. Clearing that HSTS header informa

I think that for concurrent programs, there aren't a lot of languages currently out there that can match Go. I quite like go, but for some things I really prefer a dynamic language. The flexibility of Django's object abstraction w
