Such a great site. The page on flattening arrays blows me away at how different and beautiful some languages can be (especially Ruby and Erlang's take). http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Flatten_a_list

It's great that you don't believe or "buy" that other corporations are better at handling disclosure than Apple, that Apple is maliciously sitting on bug reports, etc., because no one in this thread ever implied that. Let me try to clear up

Wow your third reply to me ever is an ad hominem? Classic. And you should probably be more careful in what you wish for because I actually have reported security vulnerabilities to Apple before. And in one case, I waited even longer than

Are you suggesting there's some kind of shortage of people who can check an email/database and reply: "Hello this x, with Apple's Product Security team. We've received your report and have assigned it #123456. We will begin investigating so

> Your expectations are unrealistic. Wait, what? You think it's unrealistic to expect every security-related bug filed to get some kind of a human follow up within 30+ days?? And this from a company that made over one BILLION in profit

You might be right. I should have written "a fail proof" system instead. And really, I don't think it's that unreasonable to expect a fail proof level of response on security vulnerabilities from the world's most valuable computer company.

Apparently, he did: > I figured Apple might appreciate a vulnerability disclosure prior to public discussion, which I did on June 17, 2010 complete with technical detail. A gleeful auto-response came shortly after, to which I replied as

While this exploit sounds like trouble, what's more disconcerting to me is that in mid-2010 Apple still doesn't have a functioning system in place to handle responsible disclosure.

He has 73,041 fewer followers than @gruber. Probably trolling for attention.

FWIW I up'ed your initial question but down'ed some of your replies. Not due to your views of Apple (couldn't care less..), but because you seem to be acting kind of silly and trying really hard to not understand how Apple's current perform

> What you must always pay attention is the balance between creating value for your customer, and for you as a professional. Great point. By not having customers right now, I've likely started to overvalue my own development/investment.

> This really starts to matter when you're working with other programmers. And see I've been solo for about two years which means I haven't had to manage any of those external expectations that you get from being on a team.

This actually probably has something to do with it. I've been working on a new project lately and have been pretty jazzed up about it during day.

I think maybe his cultural position is to opine how well a specific piece of art from a particular class of artists is, rather than being a critic of every artistic medium. At least that's all of the respect I give to him and his position.

Yeah, you're right it does. And many of the C-based APIs also have functions to put memory "into" the collector.

Exactly, and this is clearly an example of consumers (us) benefiting from their competition. I applaud this move by DTS and look forward to watching the videos.

Okay great, thanks for the reply. I will patiently await this functionality before re-reviewing Padrino.

by mishmash 16y ago
Last time I checked, Padrino didn't yet support page/action/fragment caching - a pretty serious limitation IMHO. Anyone know if that's been fixed?
