It's honestly quite pathetic, but not at all unexpected these days. I do sometimes wish that when the negligence is so gross (sending API keys in the response of an unsecured reque…

This really needs to be a system library; I'm rooting for it.

Counter-opinion: your resume will likely be viewed as a PDF or printed on a piece of paper and taken into an interview session, so all that really matters it how it looks on a stan…

I still use it for everything. Memory at that scale just isn't an issue anymore. Your grammar would have to be huge and your data structures highly unoptimized for it to matter all…
