It would only be easier to find security problems if someone actually audits your code, which probably won't be free. A good solution is to use an existing service with strong data protections to hold your actual content and then build

Exactly this. Most of the software others will build with GPL'd stuff isn't interesting to the owner of the original code. They're not doing it to fix bugs. They're doing it to add stuff for their own products. No commun

Saw this when it came out. A must-watch for anyone interested in our voting process, which is quite vulnerable in ways HN folks will easily understand. The film was produced by HBO and is full of alarming examples and demos.

Surely. We can have both. Red Hat, for example, gives you the source after you pay for a license. This is how it was at IBM years ago in the mainframe world.

Taking away the political terms like contribute and community (which are not in the GPL license text), the actual license requires the 2nd developer to do two things that are contentious. Release the source to his own mods to the first pers

The good reason is that GPL's requirement that I make my source code and build instructions available to my licensed customers (paid customers only, btw, if I want) doesn't actually help the original developer at all. Is he or she

Exactly. I don't know where the phrase "contribute to the community" came from but it's not in the GPL license text. All you have to do to comply is make your own source code available on request to users who accept your

The premise that copyleft licenses force or encourage devs to "contribute back to the community" (the most common claim) is ridiculous. Contribute what? And to whose community? Let's say you've written a library and publ

Yes, it should. Mark Cuban says all the time that you cannot outsource your critical tech skills. He rejects all tech investments that don't have a tech expert (in the product domain) as a founder. In my own experience, not being a dev

I thought XPath was pretty terrific for the day. It let you transform XML into a user interface in an entirely declarative way -- not just the appearance of items like CSS but the actual content could be inspected and altered. I built some

Just taking a very brief look at this and it seems like a great idea! They've basically "unbundled" something like Shopify and are selling the individual parts (embeded Buy Now button, data export, etc.) separately for a mont

Yes. Managers want "no code" because devs are expensive and make lots of mistakes. They believe some software will fix that, not realizing that all software is devs, all the way down.

It may be offline already. The app no longer works. Well, Flipped was good but not worth paying for and the dual screen mode thing added nothing but expense for them.

There are no screenshots or demos of the product, so that was the end for me. Not good to ask for a signup just to let someone see what you're selling.
