For those wondering why OP linked to the first part of the history page instead of the main page, the history is indeed one of the distinguishing features of Hangul. It's one of the few writing systems currently in use that was deliber

Challenge accepted, I'll try to put a backspace and a null byte in my firstborn's name. Hope I don't get swatted for crashing the government servers.

Very true. But it doesn't matter if you're building a typical website instead of an SPA, and the only "state" you care about are little things like whether a checkbox is checked. Even in that case, many of the fancy effe

It's as if today's UI designers can't imagine why someone would pick a date 20 years in the past. I wonder if they ever had to enter their own date of birth on a form somewhere. Surely most of them are over 20 years old?

If you leave out the path, it will default to the directory of the current URL, not /. If not for this default behavior, it would have been much easier to manage global settings such as currency. Right now, all it takes is one cookie w

No, there isn't. All you get a list of values that are valid for the current page. Same on the server side. If you're ever in a situation where you need to invalidate all possible instances of a cookie, it's easier to just us

It means that you are setting cookies on whatever page you're on, without considering whether the cookie will be consistently accessible on other pages. For example, you set the currency to EUR in /product/123, but when you n

Yeah, I've seen cases where even git is not fast enough. That's when opcache preload comes into play. It's still better than manually uploading files over FTP. Having said that, the "most modern" deployment strategy

You can use the same strategy with PHP. Preload all your scripts in opcache. Once you're done making changes, reset your opcache. In practice, any serious project is likely to be version-controlled. Git pull is generally fast enough th

File Browser / Finder maybe, but the text inside the boxes are too small for IDE file trees. VS Code shows "JS" in yellow text without the box, against a dark background. CSS is just a blue hash symbol. Maybe they'll cha

If it's such a simple combination, I wonder why it wasn't officially named until 2014. CSS has had names for all sorts of weird colors since forever.

A vibration motor would have been even better, but I suppose there wasn't enough space inside for that. Nor for a speaker. This is Casio, though. If they really want to, the next version could very well contain all of that and a sola

It also depends on the density and mobility of your host population. Ebola kills too quickly for hosts to move around and spread it, but that's in small villages in the jungle. What if there's just enough time for the host to take

IPv6 had this cool idea that each subscriber would get a /64, and devices within the subscriber's network would be assigned /128s with the last 64 bits matching their MAC addresses. Except it turns out that most organizations

Yeah, it would have been nice to have, but that's all. Instead of requiring IPv6, the internet has evolved in a direction that tolerates disconnects and reduces its own IPv4 address consumption. It will probably work fine for the next

I think the article's diagnosis is spot on. The urgency of IPv6 adoption was predicated on the assumption that every connected device, both server and client, needs a unique and stable IP address. Back when IPv6 was first discussed, yo
