That paragraph kind of struck me too. I know I have thought that I need to learn new programming languages in order to get a job. Its hard not to think that when the majority of programming jobs have very very specific requirements on lan

if you are suggesting that you leave these secret urls open to the entire internet, and just rely on them being inaccessbile, you're looking for trouble. Depending on the type of documents, at the least your users may not be happy about th
