I never believed there was a formula for attracting hackers' attention until I saw it before my very eyes. If you're a developer in Sydney, there is a good chance you came to the Atlassian HQ for meetups. They give us space, beer

That does not excuse it. A text editor should not take down an OS.

Good summary. New "null-full" languages should be shamed publicly. Null as a bottom-type is a semantic wart.

This is the BIG question.

Mail providers should be doing that already. I would be surprised if the gmail/hotmal/yahoo don't have responsive teams that disable hacked accounts and request password reset from a known IP or TFA.

This has some heavy hitters behind it, both in authorship and their organizations. I wondered how it compares to Caja, and this is what their "Towards .." paper states: "Caja, ADSafe, and FBJS offer sandboxing by defining sa

Skimming the table of contents you can see how this led directly to the Common Lisp specification. CL is a successful narrowing of LM; all the chapters that didn't make the cut appear to be outdated cruft, or outside the scope of a por

Unix has no concept of file extension. The dot is just like any other constituent character. To distinguish between file types, Unix uses the file(1) command and its database of manually curated magic strings and heuristics.

Who cares about "most developers". This is interesting for its own sake.

I chocked up when they pulled down their pants revealing their underwear. To make something for yourself; something so intimate, that you depend on everyday, to make it, not only have it on shelves but have it on you. That is powerful.

I agree. I was once interviewed by a company who asked me to look at a snippet of code and tell them what’s wrong with it. It was supposed to to be testing for a handle leak; open db connection without a corresponding close. But right smack

First, don't call people "monkeys". Second, just enjoy programming and tinkering for its own sake. There is no rush to gain membership into some kind of mythical elite crowd. In fact, that label itself, "elite", is

Again, just use jOOQ. It's beautiful executed design, written by smart people. http://www.jooq.org/ I never cared for the library until I realized I'm spending a lot of time on the developer's blog; he is pro

Corelate and infer from the data. If you can't distinguish between similarly named films, you still have the director and cast and years when they are active, along with country, production studio and countless other attributes. A sing

What is wrong with paying for software? It's very reasonable license too. Cost-free for open source databases and without immediate support. This is classic Free Software licensing.

Gratis for all open source databases; Postgres, MySQL, H2, Sqlite .. even NonSQLs. And worth damn every penny, should you pay for it.

If your ORM doesn't let you take advantage of these goodies, maybe it's time you went past ORM? Java's JOOq library is stellar at this kind of raw SQL access stuff, while still being expressive and well-typed: http:/&#x
