Until probably the last 5 or so years this was the norm. Until Node.js became widely used as a web developer you were essentially required to know JavaScript and at least one of Python, Ruby or PHP. For companies trying to shift away from t

There was actually a post a few weeks ago about a project which is essentially a modern CF runtime, while I still can't imagine anyone using it to build new projects, I'm sure many orgs are still actively using it to glue their le

Unfortunately unless you live in a metro area your options in Australia aren't much better. Most rural or country areas and even some suburban zones are only serviced by a single ISP who may decide you don't need internet. I lived

Exactly, as long as you buy a router compatible with your ISP's networking and you configure it correctly, you will need to deal with less if not zero tech support compared to using a provided router

A - If your router only lasts 12-18 months you need to reevaluate your purchasing decisions. Unless you manage to break a router more frequently than once every 2 years (which is abnormally high failure rate) buying is far cheaper than rent

The idea that "news organisations" still have any journalistic integrity is an absolute joke. Most now amount to nothing more than opinion blogs and biased propaganda against political party X or Y. The decline of integrity in mai

Gitlab is a terrible example, they are charging for a SERVICE of providing hosting and support for their higher tiers. They are not charging a subscription for you to be allowed to download Gitlab and self-host it.

The software is great but I would never buy it purely because of their business model. There is absolutely no reason DataGrip needs to be a subscription service. There aren't any ongoing costs for customers to use it. It should be a on

You seem to have missed the part of my comment that said "since IE6" AFAIK the box-sizing box model you mentioned was implemented since the beginning of Trident, well before IE6 came about. XHR was available from IE5 onwards (only

How does the next default Windows browser being forked from Chromium mean Google controls it? You know what open-source is, right? People threw their arms in the air because IE was substantially behind other browsers in stability and capabi

Honestly I just see all this, even despite the author claiming taking time to "mull it over", as a knee-jerk reaction. There is little evidence that MS changing to Blink/V8 will have any tangible impact on the web. Microsoft

What a load of sensationalist FUD. MS are going to be using Chromium, the open-source project along with it's Blink and V8 rendering and JS engines as the basis for their next default browser. They are not planning to install Google Ch

The main thing stopping me from using FF is it's poor profile support. There is a profile manager but it sucks. You have to launch it directly (can't open from a FF window) and you can only have one profile active at a time. Compa

You wouldn't build apps with this. It's essentially a modern implementation of a ColdFusion engine. CFML is quite arguably an abandoned language and should never be used in new projects. The only meaningful use case I see in Lucee

As the shaders are basically only good for post-processing whatever output you get from your renderer, you'd definitely need to use an infinicity-esque approach for everything interactive in a game, but you could still leverage shaders
