   A USB-C hub solves the dongles, and cheap high-capacity flash drives are already on the market. How is this a problem? However, the removal of MagSafe is disappointing. I'm not even a Mac user and I would love to see a standardized ver

   While Gitless is a positive effort to rectify some of the shortcomings of Git, I wonder why the authors found it necessary to construct a veneer over Git instead of simply forking it entirely. While the veneer is nice on a trial basis of su

   I mean the analytics account; and in my experience it is less guarded due to clients handing out access as it's "just reporting" in their eyes.

   The article is simply pointing out that services which record referrers can inadvertently store live password reset tokens if you're not careful. For instance, someone places Google Analytics in the head of the default layout for a giv

    The OCD example triggered my OCD as he used the initialism to construct each letter instead of the respective letter which caused incomplete initialisms everywhere. UGH ...

    Thanks for the downvote random 500+ karma person who takes HN seriously. I like the lack of reasoning you left, as well.

    You're right, again, even though you linked arm64 file lists instead of amd64. The 5.6 backport does have that unit file, but the badly written one from Oracle. I guess you shouldn't use Debian (-:

    You're right, running mysqld_safe is the problem. However, after a quick bit of further research, even Debian isn't running mysqld_safe anymore as they now default to systemd in version 8. So this isn't even a problem in that

    If Debian is running mysqld_safe as root then that--alone--is a problem. As for the rest, they are just configuration mishaps being used with malicious intent. One could just as easily misconfigure similar services rendering similar results

    Well since this has seemly turned into a forum for build tool gripes, I'd like to note that no build tool is the best build tool. It simply comes down to what's maintainable for you and your team.

    C++ and Objective-C both started out as preprocessors of C. So feel free to define the line where a language extension becomes its own independent language. But for me, that line exists where the dependence upon the parent language ends; ju

    When Typescript gets an engine capable of direct competition with JavaScript, then you can claim JavaScript is "dying." Until then, your usage of Typescript is no different than Objective-C vs. C.
