Is this really newsworthy? This has been the case for over a decade.

I had this same issue just a few weeks ago. I recall being asked for my 2FA on a few separate occasions and could never disable it or switch to a new authenticator app even though I had backup codes. However, I tried it a 3rd time one day a

I'd say there's a swing depending on priority. We care about code quality and having high test coverage, but sometimes the business needs something done yesterday and we sacrifice quality to get it out the door. I don't agree

> The game limits multiplayer interaction big time. It's no more than 3 parties allowed in an instance at any one time Just one quick correction. Destiny 1 limited instances to 3 parties, but Destiny 2 changed that up a bit. Patrol

It probably sounds silly, but I've been the victim of similar scams and so I started video taping myself opening every single package I receive. I be sure to show the tracking information on the box and then leave the camera rolling as

I don't understand why Amazon keeps claiming it was sent to the person's address when it was clearly shipped elsewhere. He even has a picture that shows the tracking number and the fact that it was delivered somewhere else. This s

I'm honestly curious...if diversity is such an important issue to so many people, why do large sports organizations such as the NFL, NBA, etc, still separate women into their own leagues and not allow them into the "men's lea

I hope you can find a company where you are treated as an equal. I can honestly say I've never worked for a company like you describe, so it sounds more like an issue with the company and not the entire industry as you seem to suggest.

Martin is working on a book about Clean Architecture: https://www.amazon.com/Clean-Architecture-Craftsmans-Softwar... I'm sure the book will have many real world code examples, as is fairly typical of his previous work

I very much agree. A few years ago I was searching for a new job and there was this one place specifically that had an opening that sounded like a perfect fit for my skill set. They had an extremely long application process that involved &q

I've been testing out 4 since it hit beta, and haven't had any issues. Code literally just works after updating to the new version with 0 issues, in my case at least.

I'd say when I was first learning about many of the design patterns, this was my biggest hurdle as well. The examples and analogies were unrelated to real-world scenarios and didn't do much to help me understand the concepts. It w

Same here. My first web page was on "expage" but I quickly ended up on Geocities and Angelfire for quite awhile. When I finally moved on to 'real' hosts I used Hypermart and Virtualave to host my Perl.

This is pretty scary. When you hear security professionals explain to laymen how to identify phishing attacks, it's almost always check the URL, make sure you're actually at google.com and not go0gle.com, or something like that. I

Definitely agree. It's not very surprising at this day and age, but if you told me this would happen 10 years ago I would have laughed and discounted the idea completely.

It's actually pretty sad. It seems to weed out the smartest folks so that you only hire those mediocre enough to not understand these problems within the hiring test.

The problem with democracy is the people are easily influenced by false truths. I'm all for democracy, but I also realize that a well informed vote and an uninformed vote are equal and therein lies the problem. It's not really som

This reminds me of something that happened to me in high school back in 1999. I found an Excel doc in a public network drive that contained every single student's SSN, DOB, whether they had free/reduced lunch, address, phone, etc.

I've personally always used alt+left to go back. I know backspace does the same thing, but the only reason I know that is because I seem to hit more frequently than you'd expect while not focused on a form field causing my browser

Yea, that is a lot of cereal. I definitely didn't need that much food but for some reason I wanted that much food. Oh, and I wouldn't have had the OJ on top of that personally. Today I still eat cereal but usually a cup at most, a

I'd say 1000 calories is a little much, but I think the original point here still stands. I don't have nutrition facts sitting right in front of me, but I do know often times cereal is given in very small quantities, like 130 calo

Runscope is a great service. I learned about it around a year and a half ago and utilized it to monitor and log an API I was building to act as midware betweens a user-consumed IOS app and an android administrative app for a huge event (&#x

There is a small miscommunication here. It's America's airlines (the entire industry) not American Airlines (the company). This article from November last year has more details: http://priceonomics.com/can-airlines

I understand your apprehension because I feel the same way, to some degree. But I'm excited about the new types of tech that I can already imagine using this API. There are so many fascinating ideas that come to mind, and I'm usua

This is something I have been curious about as well. It seems like Google at the very least should be blacklisting download.com or at least showing the message they show for "bad" sites: "Warning: Visiting this site may harm

Correct, it's not likely to change at this point. Official release is slated for Dec 3 according to their Twitter[1], so it appears they are getting everything ready to launch. [1] https://twitter.com/official_php/
