I've been developing PHP for many years, and the best frameworks are always the lightweight ones. Good Drupal developers, who actually understand the framework, are rare. If you can hire one, finding a second one of the same level is like w

So how do you suggest they test students personally, without assholes taking advantage of the nice students who do all the work?

Energy density of that solution must be ridiculously low. It's pretty much equivalent to raising water to a certain height.

Technically, if they are using bcrypt hashes with a high enough work factor, and salt then with something like UserID, then 12 characters is pretty damn secure even if their whole DB gets leaked. Of course, there's no good reason to limit p

$40/hr is a pretty ridiculous salary for an intern, good for you, man. Maybe you, personally, were worth that much, but on average, it's at least double of what the companies should be paying to interns. Heck, $15/hr should be fine.

Not all companies are douchy enough to sue for rounded corners.

I'm not spending a dime on Apple products anymore. After the shitty lawsuit war they started, I'm not paying to support that behavior. Fuck Apple.

I do PHP a lot, and no serious project uses PHP dirctly to render HTML. Well, I've seen PHP templates, but they are always separate from the actual code. I think PHP's success is due to several factors: 1) Easy to set up and start. It even

Looking at their salary model, I think they got it very very wrong: Position | Salary | Stock Options ———————————————+———————————————+———————————————— Intern | 50K - 60K, | prorated N/A Engineer I

It's slightly more respectable than someone winning a lottery. For every success story like that there are hundreds of developers who didn't take regular jobs and ended up in debt and bankruptcy.

You can't compare a rare successful startup exit to a regular salary. You could, but you need to multiply both by the risk factor. $1.5M is quite low, in my opinion. Not even close enough to retire in the US.

The server controls everything. Clients just display whatever the server tells them to (plus maybe some temporal interpolation). If you start doing P2P, you're opening yourself to all kinds of hacks, and increasing the amount of duplicate d

You can't seriously compare this with the HDD situation, where the term "gigabyte" has two meanings.

The absolute value doesn't mean much. It's where it's going that affects the stock price. VMW had declining profits (with increasing revenues) for 5 quarters in a row now. That is very bad. https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?cht=bvg&ch

> The fact they're from just 31 different IP addresses isn't relevant. They're still individual connections from clients to the end server. That's where you are wrong. Not only they are keepalive connections, they are completely local

> Not from the same ip, from many ips: 192.168.1.200~230 So from 31 IPs, which can be done with 31 keepalive connections. Try hitting your server with even 50K real connections and see how long it lasts (if it lasts at all). > Th

1) Notice that in his tests 97% of these connections don't do anything, just idle. He maxes out at 18764 req/sec. If you google around, Apache and Nginx can do more than that on a beefy server. 2) Notice that they are "keep-alived", coming

Islam is in the position of control in many countries. It's in the position evangelicals want to be in (and try in the US at least). There's not much secularism going on in any of heavily islamic countries, and it's actually getting worse.

While I completely agree that we can't stop progress and automation, our economy is built on the fact that most people work and make money. Unless we move towards socialism for the basic needs like food and shelter (which I personally am ok

Except we don't (yet) live in socialism powered by robots. These poor unskilled ex-workers can't have their beers on the beach. Long-term, it will come to that. Humans will actually do creative, inventive jobs, while robots do all the dirty
