I'm from the nordics and I when I was younger I thought of the US as the ultimate place to be. Now, having been there quite a bit, I must say that it really doesn't impress. The impression I got visiting the US in general (NY, Sea

Wait. If the resource at bank.com is protected by a CORS filter, the request which is issued at step three will have an origin header, and the CORS implementation is free to issue a 401 at that point. At least as far as I have understood. T

The mind-twisting part of statistics is that Fat Tony is partially right. Because although each independent throw has the probability of one half, the total resulting series is very unlikely. So you could simultaneously be at awe of the inc

Well, I can imagine the F16 g-limiting system messing with flight controls if the g-sensor is botched. In my eyes the problem isn't so much that the systems are overly invasive, it's more that the failure modes of automation aren&

No, but PHP does not get in your way unlike many other web frameworks.

It also allows you to utilize and extend the full http protocol, something which most "serious" frameworks hinder.

Story time. A close friend of mine was held in custody in the US based on false accusations by a police officer. The police officer later admitted the false accusations to the judge, that he just wanted to "scare him a bit". The j

The good thing is that they are already starting, so that the red flags are risen early.

I've used many ORMs. I don't hate them, but I think their net utility is negative. While you initially might think that interfacing with the db is going to be very tedious and labor intensive, it usually turns out to not be that b

Interesting implementation. How did the buffers survive process crash? Is that a side-effect of get_user_pages or did you have a userspace daemon?

One idea I've been throwing around is to replace files with HTTP resources; everything is a resource. Effectively Plan9s idea, but the time might be right.

TRWTF is Breakpad, trying to deal with the process crashing from within the process itself. Even requires PTRACE to work.

Agreed. RVO is not guaranteed, and move is complex. Smart pointers have overhead. Out params are for the most part a sensible choice in C++. Sadly. I'm honestly shocked that this problem hasn't been addressed in a better way.

Yeah, everyone is so defiant that they don't realize that IP and VPN blocks are coming if we continue down this road.

Interesting results. The results seem very useful when reasoning about coordination in programs, but I'm questioning how practically useful these results are when applied as methods. In the GC example, for instance, you do need to find

Having studied abstract algebra before using FP, I must say that I instantly made this connection when I came into contact with monads, and that it helped me a lot to understand them. So I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the idea of as

Rust enforces exclusive access to a variable before it allows mutation. But there are plenty of data types like smart pointers, where multiple copies of the original smart pointer points to the same underlying data. In the eyes of the compi

For what it's worth, I totally agree with you. Payment providers assume that you spend ages understanding their implementation and mental model. I think the main problem is that everyone thinks it's boring, so no talented coders h
