    I still love PHP. 23 years ago we created some encryption software for it and it is still going. I also run a PHP newsletter. There's still a strong community of people and whilst …

    In some respects, true, but that isn't always the case. Say you own a company in the UK which sells widgets, but you also own an offshore company that also sells widgets. If you ar…

    I agree. Using something as a basis isn't a bad idea and I have benefitted from this over the years. You DO need to understand what you are doing and not just blindly copy, but hav…

    Drop me a message. I've started and run several ventures, a couple of which became more than lifestyle. Nothing is done alone though - there are always people who help you on your …

    I tried Boxcryptor, but didn't like how it worked, so have built something else myself and been using it in one of my companies (distributed) for over a year now. The side benefit …
