It’s also very easy to get wrong. How many bridges are built to survive abnormal conditions like earthquakes, tidal waves, or even just a lorry driver smashing into the roof of a low bridge? Some of my closest mates are actually structural

Yet he still kick started the computer industry in the U.K. and was the reason many of us are on the obscene wages we currently are. People can have great legacies in spite of their flaws. This is true for all of our heroes.

You can’t really compare this to bridge building. There’s thousands of reasons why the two aren’t the same.

Have you actually gone through the TCP/IP specification and implemented everything securely? It’s nearly as simple of specification to get right as your post suggests.

The attack is initiated with packets that are outside the bounds of normal expected operation. While an ideal engineer set up would provide a thorough suite of negative tests to ensure those edge cases are covered, it’s also fair to say tha

That’s basically the only thing I like coloured: strings and comments. Any more and it becomes distracting visual noise. I’d never lecture someone on whether they have syntax highlighting like the blog post does. It’s dumb to argue personal

It’s more than that. Oracle is sold off the back of its middleware applications. Which equally suck too…but at least they’re solving difficult problems that most other database vendors don’t both with.

There were more than just Oracle or DB2. Informix, SyBase, 4D and I’m pretty sure there was something with the word “fox” in its name too. Plus of course MySQL, though that was many taken seriously until relatively recently.

It’s good that they’re thinking about the problem but I wonder if this will have an accidental negative effect due to it being honour based: 1. User1 reads something that sounds pretty spammy from Bot1 2. Bot1 is not a “good bot” and thus d

Frameworks are there to make development more accessible. So I can completely understand how one might trade on a framework without understanding the fundamentals.

One way to optimise this is to pull back the entire SQL results in an [][]interface{} (row, column) but then only pass a sub-slice to your TUI (depending on how many rows are visible). I assume your term library doesn’t create the actual ta

The problem is any such discussion is going to be entirely speculative. Sure, you can discuss what you presume the developers motives might have been but it reveals more about the opinions and personalities of the people holding the discuss

Larger querying larger databases should be a problem for the RDBMS not for the UI wrapper. So I’d wager he is processing every record on the db irrespective of whether it’s visible on screen or not. It would explain the TUI panic posted els

Sqlite easily manages millions of rows. I’ve used it in the past as part of a lazier implementation of an ELK-like stack and it worked fine.

There’s usually a “good reason” — however that “good reason” is subjective to the people maintaining the application and might not align with the preferences of its users. Reasons don’t really matter to users though. It’s pointless arguing

Reading a book doesn’t give you anything tactile to show for it. You read for the experience. Likewise for gaming, solving a crossword, nor watching TV. Different people relax in different ways.

Not used Web3D but VRML is a dead language. Which is a pity because VRML was extremely fun to code in. Sadly it was a victim of being release too early (even VRML2 was out before most people 3D accelerators).

It’s not as clear cut as that. There was a non-Microsoft DOS (might have been Dr DOS but I can’t recall specifically) that would boot Windows 95. Then Microsoft released an update that caused Windows 95 to fail with an vague error message i
