This may come as a shock to you but some people live outside the United States.

> Large projects are never simple I disagree. When designed correctly, large projects are simple to work on individual features and only complex when observed in aggregate as as co…

React won. And that's a good thing. Anyone reading this has one less decision to make. If you're building a JS frontend you want to be using React. You'll also want Redux to struct…

Getting fired also "syngerzies" well with a pure javascript approach.

Doesn't really scale to larger projects. Managing application and UI state becomes too cumbersome. With that said the new things are still very rough, I agree, but they will make o…

No, not like condoms. If STDs became blockable with common sense and condoms started shipping with perforations and prickles on the inside then yes, but that's not the case is it.

You shouldn't. Antivirus is a relic of the early 2000's.

Just another reminder that antivirus is dead. Any antivirus can be trivially circumvented. Based on the level of incompetence of multiple antivirus developers over the past few yea…

"Javascript should be used for form validation, interactive elements like OpenStreetMaps, but nothing else" Not if you want to get hired. We've moved on from that simple model. I d…

"JavaScript is the same" "What I'm getting at is, I don't know why you need to update anything" Shocking advice. There is a huge amount to learn. Any developer coming from the 1990…

Wow, there is a lot of awful advice in this thread. HTML, Javascript and CSS are still extremely important and they have come a long way since 1990. Forget everything you knew abou…

In my experience any developer worth hiring can do complex frontend work (even by 2015/2016 standards) and backend work. I've never seen a "frontend only" or "backend only" develop…

> SignMeTheHELLUp is complaining about Waterline ORM, but I'd argue that Hibernate is worse Are you serious. Hibernate and all it's language-specific variants are actual feature-co…

I found SailsJs unfit for any projects that had even a moderately sized set of business rules. Partly due to Node's lack of threading and partly because SailsJs feature set was a w…

Good point. The effectiveness of that kind of attack will come down to the user's wetware.

Thanks. Based on that information any privacy-conscious users should simply not use Steam or the Steam website until the bug is fixed. By not using Steam, their pages won't end up …

Can anyone confirm, was it possible for someone to view data of a specific, chosen account or were people just being logged into random accounts. In other words, could an attacker …

> when I click save password on login forms my password is sent to Google Servers Does this happen even if a user is not logged in to a Google account?

That kind of authentication and authorization can be found in any respectable CMS. Choosing Joomla because Wordpress isn't any better is like choosing to drink your own urine for b…

"How my Apache server became a malicious free internet proxy" tl;dr: Negligence, and failing to RTFM. What really horrifies me is the author doesn't seem to understand the magnitud…

How to come across as a dickless pushover for dummies. Seriously though I think it's bad to encourage people to pepper their comments with such trite. I would rather read a brief, …

Great document. Lots of this rings true to me. I have two "$thing Zero" anecdotes: Paper Zero: Have a paperless office Consumerism Zero: Rather than buying items based on advertisi…

This is the most pretentious article I remember reading in recent history but it seems the author has a few interesting points. Can anyone do a tl;dr in plain english?
