You can't. You can sell the right to have that domain name point at nameservers of your choosing.

By turning the "else if" into an "if" you introduce a silent bug when Color.yellow is added, since the final else clause would now have to deal with both blue and yellow correctly. Adding a new member to the Color enum

I'm genuinely unsure if this is a joke. If you're running that on a modern computer, your server is spending billions of clock cycles starting up. What on Earth is it doing? :) If I write a Go server, I'm unhappy if it take

It wasn't necessary for Google to disprove Damore's arguments, because they didn't fire him over the quality of his science, but rather due to the controversy arising from his claims, whether true or not. It's completely

The article doesn't say that you can't stay in business using DV certs, so that seems irrelevant. The article says that "Secure" falsely communicates to the average user the sense that it is safe to proceed without cauti

It's only a fallacy if it isn't true. Is it not true that a supporter of freedom of speech would support other people's freedom to disagree with him without being doxxed by his supporters? It seems to me that it is true, at l

This isn't censorship, this is HN readers saying they're not so interested in the memo that they need to have another post about it every hour.

Go permits struct fields to be public. Ergo, Go doesn't care about enforcing the notion that field access violates encapsulation. It is up to the programmer to decide what is being encapsulated.

I don't think computer games are the likely intended use of Wingnut's technology: I think Peter really wants to use it in film-making, e.g. live preview of compositing and effects. Suppose you attach it to a camera rig, or just

The nation isn't being held responsible. :) It think it is reasonable to expect an organization to take reasonable steps to ensure the legality of its own operations - such as not ignoring the advice of its own legal experts.

None of those comments are complaining about PHP being slow at repeatedly writing a string whose length is a multiple of the page size to standard output. That is a pretty niche case, and hardly refutes even the complaint that PHP is slow,
