I think he's saying that governments should be partly blamed by those who blame these attacks on immigration. If those governments didn't bring war to those places, maybe less people would be prone to follow the message "atta

In my opinion, the essay[0] referred to in the introduction of the article is a better read. It gives very good reasons why some people still prefer physical books, without denying (on the contrary, praising) the many advantages of digital

Well, try NOT to practice capitalism or protesting it. You're in for a lot of nuisances at best and to jail at worst. The point is, capitalism seems to do a wonderful job of looking like "the good system", as soon as you stay

They didn't say "reputable business". Even the mob is a business, meaning "something whose purpose is making money" (over-simplified, but I'm sure you'll get the point).

No, they're saying that if the money is in security, developers that know about security will go to security, and whoever remains as a developer will not be good at security.

Because users are more likely to lose a certificate or have it stolen than a website. What happens then?

It's a thing I see a lot in here. Plenty of articles in various languages other than English. Since they don't usually reach the front page it's a nuisance only if you browse new links. Not that I'm condoning it.

Since the effort started from some Italian developers/sysadmins, I would be surprised if dev-one wasn't a good approximation of the correct pronunciation. As an Italian, that would be how I'd pronounce it.

I doubt it satisfies your definition of "modern", but the GCW Zero[0] from some year ago was a Linux-based handheld with a MIPS CPU. You could make games in C + SDL or Python + PyGame. Too bad they seem to have stopped development

I guess that kind of decoration can have value too. I, for one, love seeing a good display of books.

If you're tight on money, many good books can be had used. I recently got a copy of Tanenbaum's Distributed Systems book for a third of the cover price.

> couldn't they say they no longer use them and disconnect them when someone comes to check? I would (naively, perhaps) think it's better to try and change the system than to game it.

I know it sound condescending and all, but have you tried opening a bug about these issues? They seem very clear cut and actionable.

That was more than a year ago. Is there a (hard) rule regarding reposts? From the FAQ > If a story has had significant attention in the last year or so, we kill reposts as duplicates. So having more than a year passed I guess this is ok?
