Without revealing details -- I worked for this company at this time. I was privy to certain financial details. Google did not destroy them. A combination of poor business decisions and possibly corruption did. I watched these decisions u

A simple solution is to have a single table with the fields: id, parent, name id is your primary key. parent is the id of the parent (if one exists) or a sentinel value (NULL or 0) if no parent exists, and name is "Dog", "Ca

My layman's interpretation: Taking the author's argument that a/b = the number x, for which x * b = a, it's easy to draw this out to it's logical conclusion: For numerators (that is: a) other than 0, you get impossi

SPAs can be JAMstack or non-JAMstack. JAM is secure as fuck when there's no 'A' or when you trust the 'A' strongly. (e.g. Google Maps API) Otherwise, you're just making security someone else's problem.

This is bullshit. Entrenching TLS in web standards is just handing the keys to the internet over to malicious government entities. We need security without TLS.
