There was a 10?

> it's worth it to purchase tools that have long term benefits. Good luck finding an LCD with any concrete health benefits beyond any other. The industry literally just adds a bunc…

The essential point is that he's 40 and still doesn't know what he's doing (a common problem in any technical field).

This is true until you realize all general purpose languages are the same and redundant. There is no reason to have more than one on a given system.

Ah yes, we should outlaw the ability for people to send money to each other and have civilization take the burden of incompetent corporations that can't be bothered to follow basic…

You sure some ransomware crooks don't provide contracts to their clients?

The standard business solution to solve security issues - for example like having all your database in a public folder - is to get a guy to implement "security" (whatever that mean…

I was saying that it's a red herring to go "oh people don't used typed languages because Java programs start up slow".

I know you're trying to pin me as being rude, but no. Your answer is bad and ad-hoc. Just because a language is not Java does not make it magically untested and obscure. Just use G…

We live in a world where people unironically put comments on top of every file in their projects (but only the ones they can easily insert a meaningless string into) like "you cann…

After all the snakeoil that depends on facial recognition is bypassed, that will still before it's retrained.

Zope was pretty popular a decade ago, never got into it though.

The idea of an interface is fundamental to computing. No matter what you do, at the end of the day data exchanged between two systems has to be structed _some how_. E.g., machine c…

Replace Java with literally anything else (including whatever Java implementation does not have the issue) and the "startup time" red herring is gone.

Python is just for playing with strings, which is a contrived problem brought about by UNIX-style OS. And other confusing non-fundamental, stuff that just leads to months of cognit…

No, you were correct. Some people are helping here and there but overall every aspect of the software industry is an absolute mess. Most infosec pros will not point this out, eithe…

Give me access to a machine that isn't blocked from Google, and I will.

It's been happening since before 2010, but sure.

Sorry, I thought hackers do not have nationalism.

They had the death penalty for using the royalty's name in vein until the 90s or so, jailing someone because he was drunk and made a "death threat" (with zero likelihood of it bein…

Heard of him since his DNS vulns. Never read or watched his presentations until recently. It was a breath of fresh air seeing him talk. I thought "this is a true hacker. no corpora…

This is _exactly_ what I'm talking about. You type "directions to adelaide", and you get something about Adele. I don't agree with the sentiment that it seems conspiracyish or "dys…

You can not use Google. The real problem is when you have to do tax or you go to jail and it has to be done with some smartphone garbage (not sure if we're there yet, my country st…

Ok, "the justice system".

Why is British policing so consistently stupid?
