   This is amazing! I wish there was such a thing for simple A -> B routing taking into consideration the traffic.

   See above, I am talking about the frequency of catastrophic failures. I agree it is not a good comparison.

   I think the point is the frequency.

   An interview that forces you to do something that is otherwise not part of your daily routine and measures how good you are based on that is bad. I understand that you need to get insight into the skill of the candidate but forcing her to w

   Like everything else? What was the last time the Golden Gate bridge collapsed? :) Everything else does not include the most of the engineering output. In software faults are more common because of the tools we are using and because there is

    I agree with your assessment only thing I did not understand is the Erlang integration with other languages. I am not sure if he is saying that NIFs are bad or he is saying there are is not support for other languages. I think non of these

    Were they in violation of GPL with anything? I can't find credible reference. I know that they identified the USB/DVD tool and re-released it under GPL. http://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-admits-its-gpl-vi

    and how is HTTPS protecting us against that? if you took over that IP address you can initiate a valid HTTPS session using the compromised server's identity and communicate with the monitoring service happily reporting fake data over H

    There are several reasons why FreeBSD is ditching GCC, one of them is licensing. I am wondering what are the technical reasons though...

    Not much of a hate but rather protecting their IPs by avoiding licenses like GNU. They are not alone in this, most of the big companies are avoiding it. Some companies use it and hoping for not getting caught (VMWare). I still don't se

    Hell yeah! Microsoft just became one of the viable platforms this week in the cheap segment with reasonable licensing.

    I wish there was a some info on how to get CLR (not Mono) get up and running on Mac with C#, F# etc.

    This kind of implies that HTTPS is secure. :) I dont think there is anything wrong using HTTP internally in a datacenter for data that is not sensitive (like monitoring, statistics, etc.). I guess you can still access these in legacy mode.

    Finally I got it, all of these new projects from MS, and the real reason is: to build Mincecraft Mods! :) I could not approve the new direction MS is taking.

    I love Twitter the most out of any social platforms. I think their problem partially is that the software stack is too expensive. This problem often missed because everybody is focusing on capabilities and features. Performance, and being e

    I don't know about any major project. I was waiting for MS to commit to running CLR on Linux (or any unix like clone) so that I can consider the CLR languages seriously (I am very interested in F# in particular).

    Pretty good series, using Haskell (it has a pretty decent type system and the type syntax is easy to understand, OCaml's is a bit more confusing) for the examples. Great coverage as well on types and category theory.

    Just use zoom, most of the major browsers let you do that. Some even let you define the minimum font size.

    "yet another hipster technology manifesto" so good content. I guess it is a good summary what is wrong with the tech industry (lots of "solutions" are abused, built for different era, etc.) and also bashes a bit on techn

    MS realized that the closed source, only running on Win32 platform battle is lost. Their only chance to get a grip of the future if they open up and go for supporting multiple platforms like Java did.

    Yeah like all of the other guys in the thread. Everybody missed. I understand now, my bad of getting involved in this low class debate that has nothing factual or valuable.

    Which part of his review was about functional programming in particular? Generics has nothing to do with functional programming at all. I think it would be worth to clarify what does functional programming mean to you.
