everytime i use mysql i die a little inside. that said, the amount of work to switch over to postgres isn't worth it. not that there's a lot of work, more a lack of team experience that makes it currently not a smart move.

the legends of dune trilogy were the only good dune books. the reset were drivel in my opinion. that said, i did read them all, so they can't have been that bad, but i did spend most of the time waiting for the robots to come back. whi

they really need to decouple internet explorer from windows. if everybody could run the latest ie, then it wouldn't be an issue anymore

obviously you learned bad perl, not modern perl

it's an awful language, but it's ubiquitous, and it's flexible enough that libraries can smooth over the cracks.

I was talking about whitespace, and I was wrong, it's a different Chris Morris :(

by n0body 12y ago
you could well be right. infact, i'll go as far as saying you are right. i learned something today.

Trouble is, so much has changed that they need a whole separate audit. And who knows what problems removing code introduces. But then again, they might not b worse, but they'll still need auditing to find out

God damn it not again. Bring on boringssl/libressl. Although they'll be full of holes as well probably, and as things stand there's a lot of people looking at openssl at the moment. So maybe better the devil you know

i didn't say there was, but it's still complicating the task. i'm not saying it isn't cool, but it's a very round about way of doing something, and as such it becomes more expensive in development time and skill req

interesting, although the old mantra of "hardware is cheap, developers are expensive" is still true. you could hire 10 perl/c/c++/javascript/php/etc dev with ease for your project, but struggle to find one

You and I have a very different definition of fun, and meta-programming.

I agree, although I do enjoy watching talks and things, well listening to them mostly. Usually stuff from http://perltv.org/ bit I couldn't imagine wanting to watch someone program. I can't imagine someone would w
