Yeah, that's what the client is willing to pay to the consulting firm who don't want to hire the guy at more than 24K ... Sad truth.

The wages were too low. The skilled spaniard fled the country. Combined that cuting spendings in education. And now act surprised at the result.

A DSSSL implementation on desktop still exists : openjade [1]. Could probably be ported successfully to JS today. Heck, someone could try to compile it with Emscripten. [1] http://openjade.sourceforge.net/

Sorry, but we do have quotas. We're just not vocal about them. edit: No, we actually don't, my mistake. But there seems to exists unofficial expulsions and regularization quotas to meet every year.

I did not write off HTTP2, I just said that it is not has interesting as marketed. It's great for some usecase like tiled maps for instance. Not worth the trouble for other usecase. That's all. Akamaï already demonstrated so, not

Except, in real life, you're also loading stuff like social buttons (facebook, twitter, google plus and so on) and tracking^W marketing probes from third parties. So, to me, HTTP2 is not that interesting.

So saw it was English only. Hence my question. How should I go about building support for another language ? I skimmed the doc but didn't see anything related to that question. Also, it is AGPL so I also wonder if you can you TreeBank

I think we European might care a bit more about our privacy. Just a bit, not that much more, but a bit. That way you're less "discoverable" by a complete stranger. I guess it's cultural. And I'm pretty sure that if

Hum, never though of it this way. It also make business sence since Yandex strength is probably the handling of complex language in information retrieval. I always though the angle was to then address middle-east market with better indexing

For reverse geocoding only as it does not seem to do geocoding proper. Pelias[1] might be a better alternative once they simplified the install process. I had to "reverse engineer" (aka read and understand) their chef cookbook as

Yes, I can see that too. I don't think the direction of the traffic is right anyway. Circulation in my street is the other way around. Either real life circulation direction is not used or base on wrong data. Great work anyway :)

Google elsewhere, another time, kind of said that they'll be pushing for HTTPS "all-the-thing". It is their agenda. An agenda I do not juge nefarious, just one I disagree with. That said, I've gone back reread the mail a

You're probably right, I am not a security expert and might not be seeing the whole picture. You log into your bank website connected to an open WiFi hotspot ? I never would do that. I think there is a point where you have to apply com

Do you really need to secure Youtube viewing on a public WiFi hotspots ? Unless you want to sell DRM movies, I don't see the need for HTTPS here. Unless you want privacy on a public network. But we're not talking about security an

The thing is most phising attack don't even bother going that far, some people will click on https://foobazbar.com for a "rightly" crafted mail. HTTPS does not prevent anything here.

Ok. Here I can see the problem. That said, does this happens really that much ? Shouldn't we educate on open wifi instead ? My point is HTTPS has a cost and is a barrier of entry, the trade off isn't always worth it, IMHO.
