We have proper beer in the UK :)
It depends. Look at DongleGate...
Visual Basic is derived from the same roots. I think the use is acceptable. For reference, I started on PDS (QBASIC 7) and used VB for DOS for a number of years. Awesome products. My father built a piece of software on…
Because that would destroy the incorrect point they are trying to promote.
That wears off pretty quickly. After about 30 mins in the air, to quote Frankie Boyle, you are just in a tin can full of other people's farts. I hate flying. It was once exciting but the airport drudge and being packed…
Err no. PCI DSS is basically farts in the wind. Its beyond useless and the testing agencies are all snake oil salesmen.
Spot on. This is why I'm still a fan of the old directory style systems like dmoz.
You have obviously never used Lotus Notes in the early '00s then! Same grade turd, just with a bigger price tag and more consultants than you can shake a shitty stick at. Nostalgia here:…
Agreed. The number of things Ghostery blocks seems inversely proportional to the utility value of the site!
Regarding 1 (pair programming), I find that we work well with all our own personalities but not other people's :)
What buttons? (adblock)
Serial killer? :)
Agreed. We've got them on Windows too - .msi files :) The main advantage of standalone packages is I can choose whatever version of package XYZ I want and push it out rather than being stuck with the package version the…
That's fine but for some of us, connectivity is not ubiquitous and it isn't necessarily legal to ship our code or data somewhere else unknown on the Internet...
Citation from me - stuff that hasn't worked properly for me in the last 5 years: Acer Timeline 1810TZ, Acer Timeline 3810TZ, Sony Vaio VPC-J1, Lenovo ThinkPad T61, Dell Precision 390, Dell Precision T3500. All have…
Ugh another thing I really don't want in the database. Seriously, stuff like this will knacker your scalability over time. I only say this because I've been there, with SQL Server's XML processing stuff, then spent…
My point entirely :)
This. Integration is hell. This is a universal fact. I'd rather pick a tool which doesn't add integration requirements!
Perhaps my point wasn't quite described as well as it could have been. What I meant to say was: What distinguishes your product is not how it stores or presents the data but what value it derives or extracts from that…
I didn't mention C :) I wouldn't drop down to C ever at application level. There is virtually no need to do this these days without introducing more risks from a security and memory perspective and the inevitable…
Both of those are subjective.
Good point. Need a rustfmt like gofmt in go.
Perhaps the GP owns a windows phone :)
It still looks roughly like a bell curve. I think the genuine answers are enough to extrapolate some information from this.
Isn't this basically a virtual panopticon? With all the distractions and unnecessary meetings to make certain staff feel functional? This is basically all the disadvantages of working in an office projected on home…
