probably because the need is real, just not the "for natural disaster" reason they gave.

curious, do you know where I can find out how proxy servers negotiate/relay SSL without eavesdropping? I'm trying to figure out how secure proxies communicate but can't find details :)

article doesn't include "module", which I think is a big mistake, as it assumes a monolithic api for the entire business. My opinion for a better structure: domain.tld/api/module/version/

back to naming hell I see. Surface Pro > Surface Pro 4 > Surface Pro 3 etc... Is it bad to have higher numbers in product titles? I don't see a problem with "Surface Pro 5" but maybe "normal" people do?

I don't think this is the reason why most people (non tech savvy) look to turning off Windows Update. Most people don't know/care about Windows Update pushing features. However most people DO care when their computers spontan

I use sendgrid for transactional email and I have had no problems regarding that in the year I've been using them. I have found their nighttime support team to be terrible though, resulting in 14hrs downtime because they didn't ha

1) make an MVP. minimum viable PRODUCT (not prototype) 2) Pick an idea that you would pay to use (product champion). If you are not the target market, you need to find a product champion who will join your team prior to the MVP creation.
