PHP the language and the development environment around it is quite capable, however the unwashed masses of "developers" and the plethora of code spewed forth from them would cause you to avoid PHP like the plague.

Using php-5.5 with php-fpm and nginx, can confirm. There are some gotchas that you will trip over along the way, but after that it's nothing but smooth sailing.

Suing General Alexander would probably do more harm than good -- this stint in the private industry is likely just another carrot on a stick that he's offering to the world's greatest hackers. "Work for the NSA and you get wi

Nonsense, Snowden's revelations give credence to the NSA's capability. One could even say that Keith Alexander owes Snowden a great deal of his notoriety to him.

Can these "features" be turned off by the user, and not enabled remotely? Are these "features" off by default? No? It's maliciously removing control from the user.

The article implies that Baby Boomers are more virtuous, however I'd contend that those same people wouldn't have been so virtuous when they were 18-24. Loyalty from the 18-24 age-group is difficult to come by, regardless of which

$51B leaves the US in the form of remittance -- imagine all of that being USD->BTC->USD instead. The daily trade volume would be astronomical compared to today's. Where remittance ends, forex begins.

Most people don't move beyond where they live, so "creating jobs" is a highly localized event that requires targeted and planned injection of resources. And even so, these resources can and do disappear. Personally I think

Eh, it shouldn't be that bad. The Google and OpenBSD teams certainly can operate only independently and they have both pledged to cooperate with The OpenSSL Project (as well as with each-other). Things are looking up, IMO.

I'm not at all saying the ends justify the means, just that their argument that these tools are useful is valid, and we will need to help them realize that they are damaging us far more than they are helping us.

It's in the chipset of the cellular radio (3G/4G/etc), whose source is generally not available to anyone. And, more to the point, the code running on the chip can deceive the operating system.

You're being awfully presumptuous -- there's nothing to indicate the parent isn't already using an apache2+php-fpm setup. Not all apache2+php users are using mod_php (which is where performance woes come from).
