   One of his last points seems to be incorrect (or I'm misreading him). One that I like that replaces my most frequent usage of magit is crecord: interactively select hunks for committing. this is literally 'git add -p',

    The real analogy is that we're taking away pencils because writing in the wrong book can cause you to lose all your money and cause months of problems. And these books are disguised as your own diary, cookbooks, maps and the TV guide.

    Pursuing != is. Its a language in the stages of infancy and under active development, of course there are bugs. Its not even at version 1.0 yet!

    One thing on this that surprises me is that the Rust repo has the second highest number of issues closed out of any repo on github, after homebrew.

    This reminds me of this wired article[1] when Steve Jobs died, whilst not directly related to blindness - it is touched upon - in my experience few firms have gotten it as right on accessibility as Apple, and definitely nowhere close seve

    Those parts are typically automated. Also even if you're a .net shop, you might have your stuff placed in front a linux/bsd based router which responds to certain requests (it does happen). A pen tester can't know what infras

    Some of these sound reasonable. For example there are un-patched minor Denial-of-Service attacks in both Windows and Linux, and I'd expect a pentest to report on those, even if there's nothing we can do about them (for example mon

    There are plenty of optimizations that are only available when you know the types of the objects you're dealing with (mostly relating to aliasing). See: http://scholarworks.umass.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=10.
