As the Internet is moving to IPv6 ( https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html ), soon these IPv4 addresses will be worthless.

Dang, I apologize for these comments. Every time I tried Rust, I just couldn’t get anything done in a reasonable amount of time, and I started hating this language. I will refrain from commenting on Rust posts from now on.

For over a decade, every August, Byte magazine published columns covering one programming language. Here’s a list of years and languages covered: 8/77 - APL 8/78 - Pascal 8/79 - LISP 8/80 - Forth 8/81 - Smalltalk 8&

Neither software architecture nor design matters. The only thing that matters is whether you deployed your code to production. Code in production that solves customers’ problems right here and right now beats any architecture and design.

No. I like when nothing changes. C is perfect. All my code from 2000 still works.

Rust will not replace anything because it’s impossible to write code in it. Everything you write is a syntax error that requires an exobrain to figure out.

I will never use any other language for server apps than C. C is a language for getting things done. It's finished and final. It will not change. There will be no new surprises, no new operators, and no unpublished packages. There are

There’s no such thing as a good code base. There’s only code that you deployed to production and that is working and code you wish you wrote that never got deployed and has no value.

Actually Rust is a syntax error. It passes the duck test for a syntax error - it looks like a syntax error, it acts like a syntax error, and it prints a syntax error, so it is a syntax error.

I strictly use PHP5 with no updates as everything is well known and code I wrote in 2000 will work for decades. If it ain’t broke, don’t upgrade it!

Exactly. You get it 100%. Come work for me!

It literally doesn’t matter. You fix the bug, deploy, and move on on.

Amen. You get it 100%. Come work for me!

I just checked and I still have some older servers running 2.6.22 from almost 10 years ago. I like the saying: if it ain’t broke don’t upgrade it.

There’s no such thing as a well written codebase. There’s only code you wish you wrote and actual code that is deployed to production.

Both of these tags are actually just the <div> tag. There’s no reason to use them as <div> already works well.

If you have a popular service, then one of the best approaches is to have your users notify you when something is down or is broken. This pattern follows the famous quote: “Given enough eyeballs all bugs are shallow.” I have employed this a

The answer to this mystery is that no one has heard about these esoteric languages.

Because it’s not a programming language but a syntax error. It passes the duck test for a syntax error - it looks like a syntax error, it acts like a syntax error, and it prints a syntax error, so it is a syntax error. Avoid it!

That’s 5k visitors per month. It cost me just $20k, which is peanuts compared to the value these typos bring.
