Things like this can only be endorsed by malicious or very stupid people (if you are getting excited about this and have Minority report pop into your head -- you're of the latter).

What "security industry"? In how many companies nowadays is sitting and thinking things through an encouraged approach? It goes against the current economical values. The problem are not IoT vendors, the problem is money-driven ec

How great. Can't wait for "Music for tech-savvy young adults with interest in retro games" or "Music for Asian women aged 35-45". Before these industry-disrupting services emerge though, I guess I'll just stick

Does anyone know what the maximum possible (combined-)output resolution of the Radeon Pro 460 is? I'm having a hard time finding this info on AMD's website.

"Why Tokyo Is the World’s Best Food City"? Because the author uses the word "fucking" at least once per paragraph. That is why. So off I go to Tokyo, visibly impressed.

Could it be that nepotism exists in the (free) free market world? Shocking.

I'd just gone through the process of moving some ~40 accounts on various websites from having a Yahoo email address to a Gmail one. By far the most unpleasant experience was with PayPal. First I changed my email address. I received a c

Unfortunately, even though I would very much like to abandon mine (even though it's used only for some spammy registrations), email forwarding is not possible unless you pay them, which is obviously out of question. So basically, the b

From the pricing, and the fact that the blue version is available only in the US, this seems to be an "iPhone for Muricans that don't want an iPhone" (for whatever hissy fit). Now they have a choice, exactly like between Re

2016, ladies and gents. Everyone is hypersensitive. Nobody thinks or researches anything past a Google search. Everyone has an opinion. Everyone is on the internet. Everyone yells everything they think on social media.

An article was recently featured here, that said functions were limited to 60 lines. That seems like way too loose of a restriction considering the possible consequences.

And it's extremely hard to write unit tests for crappy code.

> a function shouldn’t have more than 60 lines of code. I started having headache spikes after reading this sentence that refers to keeping functions "short", in the article about safety critical programs.

As someone who doesn't know much about how parallelism primitives are implemented, I need to ask why SharedArrayBuffer needs a length to be specified? From my layman viewpoint, this seems too low-level to be used for casual everyday ap

> Making each an individual test would triple the test time, pollute the test codebase and not bring any advantage. Would it really? None of what you said here is true.

They should be tested independently, each with a completely reproducible setup that does only what is required for the assertion that will be made. I'm not sure what's hard to understand here... Are you trying to say that they ne

by finishingmove 10y ago
I am well aware of that and I agree on being pragmatic, but more often than not, the reason for multiple assertions per test is developer laziness and/or unawareness of the benefits of isolating failures by having just one assertion pe

We see the test checks three things: Verifies: - KogMaw deals less damage to non-lane minions - KogMaw deals percentile magic damage - KogMaw deals normal damage to lane minions and the verify method has three assertion

Question to C programmers: Every time I encounter some C code, it doesn't take long until the obscurely short variable names start popping up from all directions. Is naming variables in this manner considered acceptable by today's

I love reading gray on gray. No, really, the web needs more of this. Let's also make sure the font is readable only on retina displays.

I was hoping to read something in this article that could be used to inspire today's girls/women who are not programmers, but aspire to be (or have at least given it some thought). Unfortunately, it's hard to see things like

Well, no excuse for something like that. That's bad. I'm wondering generally though, after it reached some maturity (let's say 2016+ Manjaro), what's the difference in security of that distro compared to something like D

by finishingmove 10y ago
Distros like Manjaro have been on the receiving end of criticism regarding security updates, but how worse is it really compared to the more mainstream distros? I, as a layman, see no difference.

Word of advice: don't read a lot of HN and Reddit, especially not first thing in the morning. It can leave you feeling burned out and depressed. Do your best to try and apply the things you've learned to your current job, and devo
