Because what their customers are afraid of might be true, they don't have the assets.

For me I always point to the Java's time library pre-8 as an example. It was a common pain point, experienced Java devs would know to use joda time but beginners wouldn't know to look to an alternative to the one in the standard

I evaluated this a few months ago and absolutely loved it. It was more polished and easier to use than I expected. Since the website made a big deal about it being alpha I went in expecting a little pain. The only major problem I hit was

Honestly, that isn't a super convincing source. Every news outlet has a criticism section. For an almost 150 year old organization, that is pretty sparse. Even better some of things in there are non-issues like "Trump repeatedl

Some people just don't care about this bigger picture. They aren't a direct target and they are already apart of so many mass analytics models that it just doesn't seem to matter anymore. It's a jaded side effect of a

That doesn't seem that extreme if it is a large project. JetBrains products are more than just a text editor and tend to be pretty aggressive with RAM usage.

I'm sure some PM somewhere in Meta is proud it's using that horrid avatar instead of an actual video. But ooft, it looks so goofy on what seems to be a serious conversation. Their whole metaverse bet seems weirder and weirder by

I'm curious on the comment about a customer asking on the fix status. That comment was made before the thread was public. How did the customer know? Was it independently discovered or are they disclosing some known bugs to high valu

This is my favorite of the bunch. I remember picking it up as a long time C dev hoping to learn a new, modern approaches. It helped hammer home that you can only modernize a 50 year old language so much. I didn't come away with from

It is a reference to how children sometimes count on their fingers. It's an old, lame joke that if someone needs to count higher than 10 they can use their toes too. He's making that joke at himself.

I was working on an embedded system long after that transition happened. The BSP we got from the chip vendor was still targeting 2.4. We had to port all the drivers over ourselves. The long tail of old software in embedded world is rid

How does it know where to send it? Does it just assume it should use the contents of the Host header and send the request there or is the "url" in your path the destination? Does it support things like SNI?[1] Can you spoof tha

I'd imagine the ratio of post sales support staff is higher than normal with them. Either technical or, as someone else mentioned, legal. Docusign only makes sense as a product if it is quick and easy to use. They need to help custo

It's made funnier by the fact that I've never had a dentist who's cared. I asked a couple and each time got the line that the physical act of brushing matters much more than the type of toothpaste. I vaguely remember one sa

Try thinking of it less as a new abstraction and more of removing a restriction from a previous abstraction. It is pretty easy to run into a situation where you want them without even knowing what the concept of a GAT is. Rust gets a lot o

I don't think WebKit reasonably sees itself as a risk for US sanctions unless they have an open source money laundering feature that no one has told me about.

That's not a healthy assumption. Breaches can and will happen to anyone and we should assume they eventually will happen to everyone. What matters is how quickly you can detect the breach how limited the impact is. It's still t

It's MIT licensed. If they do then it can be forked and community maintained. It could be similar to the mass forking of projects when Oracle acquired Sun. .NET now has a way bigger community than a lot of those projects did and the
