I believe that Apache incorporates most of the optimizations today. However, unlike Flash, it is not event driven.

One of the most difficult aspects of cyber security is attribution. There's really no way to know for certain who did what. Also, it's easy and convenient (right now) for other nations to blame China as cover for their own cyber i

C++ will be around for at least the next 50 to 100 years. It has the speed of C along with the expressiveness, encapsulation and flexibility of higher-level languages. Basically, you can do bare metal OS and device driver work in C++ AND

When you write tl;dr followed by a very short summary, doesn't that itself imply that the article was long?

One quick side story. Years ago, when I worked in automobile systems programming, some coworkers had to bring up a CAN bus data extraction system quickly (less than a week) that worked with all of our programming tools. We used Java, C#, C,
