Doing the same - Dell 15" kitted out with 32Gb RAM for me. The 'Pro' moniker is just a marketing gimmick these days.

They wouldn't need this rushed excuse for a 'Pro' machine if they hadn't totally taken their eyes off the MacPro for the last 3+ years! It's like they woke up one day and realised 'oh crap people are pissed and

This looks nice but so far I'm thrilled with ktor (which is very much in development). Some of the main draws are: - It supports multiple server hosts (Jetty, Netty, Tomcat as well as running as a servlet) - It's Kotlin done by th

I've been following this for a few months. It looks neat but too new to entrust to any major project in my opinion. Also seems too new to put together and meaningful performance comparison since it still seems they're finding freq

The trouble with statements like 'for the average xyz user' is: 1. 50% of your users won't have their needs met - that's a large proportion assuming a uniform distribution 2. We can't be sure a uniform distribution

In order to implement all the Scala language magic the generated byte code is sometimes far away from what the equivalent Java code byte code would look like. This isn't a problem for most people but it is an issue for anyone who uses

The language is indeed very nice but really key things that make it so nice are also: 1. The IDE support (without it, it would be somewhat more painful) 2. The fact JetBrains have built a really great new syntax and still have it compile do

that may be the 'ideal' result but judging by the number of 0-day exploits it will not be the reality. Even Apple let you side load apps onto an iOS device if you're a developer... Microsoft is definitely setting it up for a

Have I understood correctly: if you have Windows 10 S you won't be able to get Chrome (or any app) not approved by Microsoft? If that's true, then anti-trust issues will once again loom. This time, MS will not be able to drive th

Apple imagined a world where everybody did all their work on iPads and the laptop was a relic from a forgotten age. We might get there one day, but NEVER while Apple maintains closed-garden approach to iOS. Apple allowed its 'Pro'

Yes I read. However, you've failed to grasp a few things: 1. The client should not get to 'choose' which algo it uses, it merely states what algo it did use. Emphasis should be on the server to verify that the client didn&#

Never read such nonsense masquerading as an authoritative piece of information. Author clearly doesn't appreciate that the ultimate truth of any authentication scheme is you should not trust anything from the user. So what if you take

This is excellent news - am currently evaluating options for cloud Postgres. Only wish they'd support a few more extensions - https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/extensions - e.g. plv8 would be g

The Bluecoat sales people did a number on you huh? Sounds really good until you ask 'why doesn't Bluecoat understand this traffic' - because it really should.

Go back to 1950s USA where average annual salary was just over $3000 - if I told you back then I'd give you $500 a month - almost twice the average salary where do you think we'd all be now? Would we be even here? Now take your $5

Funny how all the proponents of a Universal 'Basic' Income aren't proposing instead to make every 'Basic' item 'Free'. After all, if you believe their rhetoric, giving someone $500/mo should be the sa
