Can you please explain why?

Doesn't encryption protect against these low level network backdoors? I'd think that encryption happens in the upper layers so by the time traffic goes through the ME, it is just g…

I've been looking for an article that I think I found 10+ years ago on the web about a very similar topic, something like "the evolution of database systems". It was a very well wr…

This post feels like recent movie trailers. The way you wrote it makes me believe you know what you are talking about but I have no idea. Care to give the curious reader pointers t…

This really seems like php. I also think that mixing UI with logic is a recipe for disaster and there is already php (and several others?) for that. I suppose the creators of such …

I almost peed.

Never heard of Level1Tech, just looked them up. Man... These people are so likeable! Great content!

The author seems to be very knowledgeable about the different aspects of programming. Whether you agree with his opinions or not, this article I think is a great starting point for…

I'd like to hear about this too!

Ken Thompson wrote in his famous paper [1] about quines: > If you have never done this, I urge you to try it on your own. The discovery of how to do it is a revelation that far sur…

I appreciate the clarification but what I didn't get is what "symbolic processing" has to do with "hard real-time" (who cares what the language looks like?) and similarly, how is "…

In every paper there comes a line at which I completely lose what they are talking about. If I'm lucky, this happens after the abstract/intro. In this case, this was it: "A real-ti…

This resonates with me so freaking much. I am disgusted by how every bit of information on webpages seem to be buried between paragraphs of empty EMPTY talk and even when they seem…

Fantastic job. I love that I can easily read breadth-first.

Can someone help me understand what is usually meant by "systems" as in "A systems approach"?

The way the author describes static and dynamic typing seems to imply that static == compiled and dynamic == interpreted. I probably misunderstand something, can someone help me cl…

Such a simple and good looking game. Fantastic! Gives you a sense of just how big our oceans are.

Where should I start if I want to dip my toe in this topic? Have a few years of web development experience and a Bsc in software engineering in progress.

Good point, thanks for the excellent article!

> We know that sharing Hadoop helped our competitors, but we also know that the revenue stream comes from ads. This is not clear to me, can you please explain? I'm still stuck at t…

2nd point seems valid. 1st one however suggests that people will try to use it to their own benefit - some of them to compete with Yahoo. Why else would they contribute to the proj…

I don't understand how such a move is profitable for a business. Can someone please point me to some articles that discuss this?

Someone please explain us: - what the heck are we seeing - why is a twisted 3d object such a big deal - what are the applications

Thanks! Can someone tell me what kind of architectural style does that house on the landing page represent?
