That was over a decade ago, things change. Firefox is more relevant now than it was before, I welcome their efforts to change with the times. They are taking massive risks now, simultaneously developing an entirely new programming language

Nah, requiring Symfony is like requiring Django. Doesn't make much sense.

It should be noted that there is a far more interesting implication -- tech and banking giants ditch SWIFT for their own blockchain. The blockchain and SWIFT are very similar in spirit and in actuality, and it stands to reason that there is

Refurbished/used home appliances -- yet another way to leak credentials. I look forward to a day when the internal components of home appliances are salvaged on the off-chance that a user's credentials could be found in them. You

I'm surprised there aren't more reports of honey-pot use, particularly with how easily it is to derive a behavioral patterns of terrorist propagandists. Such honey-pots would no doubt catch false-positives but it is a known effect

It should be noted that there are some caveats to TypeScript, namely that it's type-safety is only compile-time and not at run-time. It is best-effort type-safety. That said, the edge cases are few and far between. TS is a fantastic la

The Isil-Turkish border has been open and porous for a very long time, at the behest of Turkey. They have insisted that the Isil-Turkey border remain under control of Isil or Turkey, and that any interference with that arrangement be regard

Honestly, regarding Saudi Arabia, I think their strategy is to buy as much equipment as possible so that the West has no choice but to prop up the House of Saud. Why do they have no choice? Well, if the House of Saud falls then the weapons

Playing cat and mouse is different from ladder and wall. To breach a wall, you have to construct a single ladder. To protect against a ladder, you have to raise all of your walls. This escalation is in fact the basis of al Qaeda's anti

Indeed, the elephant in the room is Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Both have a significant interest in the removal of the Ba'athist government from Syria, and they have both expended significant resources in achieving this goal (officially o

This is for both development on ARM systems (standard go commands, eg: go build, etc) and deploying to ARM systems (setting ARM as a compile target). That said, I'm genuinely curious why anyone would develop on an ARM-based system as o

Why does NVidia dominate GPU computing? Where is AMD in this space? I was under the impression that AMD's strongest R&D in the past few years has been directed at hybrid consumer desktops, surely this should translate directly into

I don't live in Japan but, on the surface, the problem seems self-evident -- Japanese innovation is dead. The heads of the conglomerates (Sony, Mitsubishi, etc) are all old and Japanese, and anyone that is not old and Japanese is regar

Junior devs? I could see this being yet another gross tool used by seasoned and junior devs alike, with the former trying to be clever with over-engineered solutions and the latter not knowing better.
