I understand that. I don’t understand JDNI, LDAP and why it ever downloads and runs remote bytecode and why was that ever considered a good feature.

Reading about this got me to the words “servlet” and “BeanFactory”, which I don’t really want to uncover right now, as it might open some pandora’s box

Wikia was never actually good, but they were never this bad , as when they sold out to some capital and start squeezing every penny from every pixel on the screen. Right now, fandom.com is basically unusable. Unfortunately, as some info th

I never worked on Chrome directly, but I looked into the Chromium code sometimes when debugging some weird JS issues. What strikes me first is how much code there is… There are tons of code, some things copied multiple times, because Chrome
