Yes I know this but its more the fact that there is no CRL that a new device can import so you are not in control of the pre-seeded keys. So if you have kit on the shelf for months and MS's private key is leaked or cracked then you have a l

Its a high court order for a bunch of specific very popular ISPs. By nature, a court order can only be applied to corporate entities (people, companies). They would have to enumerate every possible computer connectivity provider to be effec

Hm. Interesting to observe, but will this throw a lot more crap into space that we then have to worry about in a few decades? I assume it'll knacker any landers we have there as well through either seismic activity or dust penetration.

No it's a shit idea from end to end. Any PKI based system is a shit idea unless you are personally in control of the trusted root CA, which in this case you're not. I think that is what Linus is saying. Google for "certificate authority com

Time to move to Andrews and Arnold if you are in the UK: http://aaisp.com/ They have an explicit no censorship policy: http://aaisp.com/news-censorship.html Not only that, they offer IPv6 and their connection isn't a total piece of shit

Yes and fiberglass or even carbon fibre takes one hell of a lot less time to put together as well. TVRs spontaneously combust as well thanks to the fiberglass which is rather flammable.

If you were a VPS customer, you'd be less locked in and can just walk to another vendor so they actually are shit hot with support usually. It was obvious when I first tried it that GAE has crappy support.

Sir here is a Microsoft gold partner who puts nearly £1m a year in business their way as well. I'm not a reddit whinger and Microsoft hate monger. They treat us like criminals by throwing us through audits, never fix a defect we raise and s

Good call. For some reason I didn't get the compatibility view button for this site. I noticed I don't get it for any sites. After some digging, it appears something has turned it off on this box. I've turned it back on and it works in comp

If you're going to sign up again to troll, you are the lowest form of coward. If you're new here, back to reddit please.

The latter. I'm not sure how you could transfer something of that complexity, with all the UI logic efficiently.

I'm not sure how we'd go client side efficiently. We have 2500 views!

Yes I know. They put it on windows 8 because we have enterprise edition available to us at no additional cost and that ships with hyper-v at no cost. VirtualBox is a royal POS and VMware is expensive so this means a significant cost saving.

Still can't place an order with pizzahut.co.uk with IE10. I raised this with them 4 months ago: both Pizza Hut and Microsoft and neither give a shit about their customers.

+1 for this. We just set up 20 of our people with this set up. With Hyper-V built into Windows 8, it's actually quite pleasant (compared to dealing with VMware).

by meaty 14y ago
Not strictly true. Our QA team are using Windows 8 and they typically decided to fire up a VM using built in Hyper-V containing one of the above each :( So we now have one extra IE7 and IE9...

Firstly the interface isn't a layer of abstraction - it's a contract, a boundary. An abstraction is an arbitrary concept which may or may not apply to an interface. Secondly, the abstract base concept is actually a deadly form of coupling.

It's not about how many ISomething's exist - it's about defining a contract between Something and the rest of the system. When it comes to testing, how are you going to test your ClassX if it's tightly coupled to ClassY rather than IClassY

I think that is implicit. The guidelines set out here allow you to deliver that value without having to rip up your product for every minor change.

Which has absolutely nothing to do with OO specifically.

This doesn't suprise me. I am related to an ex-sales exec at Cisco UK. They are a bunch of shysters who will desperately oversell anything to anyone. The person in question was responsible for selling such kit to managers who didn't even kn

I would have probably done the same under the circumstances. The solution was a crock of shit. You can only take so much.
