I love the fact that the author "wrote" this page with massive CSS framework (tailwind) and some sort of Javascript framework, with a bundler and obfuscator - instead of a plain, simple HTML page. Well played! :-)

This is less an example of why serverless was bad but rather an example where using non-suitable services for tasks they were not meant for. In this case they were using AWS Step functions that are known to be expensive ($0.025 per 1,000 st

Having a good keyboard is important (not only for ergonomics, but also for efficiency) in our business. But I find I'm having difficulty when temporarily switching from US to DE keyboard layout, or when using a mac (vs linux) - so what

By being able to modify executable files on the webserver, an attacker can add a backdoor through a security hole quite easily. Without, he could just make use of the security hole as of itself.

The update mechanism itself is still insecure, as the wordpress instance must have the ability to exchange its own source code - something you'd at least call risky. Web applications should run with the least possible privileges, ie. o

I am a (happy) user of homeshick ( https://github.com/andsens/homeshick ), but this project really seems to top it by providing the only feature that I've missed until now: - use the same source file with different

So, what could it be that makes iPhones "react" with helium? Helium is an inert gas and shouldn't really chemically react with anything in there. Any clues why such an environment doesn't make Android phones behave in su

This is an unsolved problem; some people work around it by managing multiple twitter accounts, one for each "channel". It doesn't scale by topics, though. OTOH if I have to think about which channel / user I tweet to, I

I use homeshick ( https://github.com/andsens/homeshick ), a - as I understand - rewrite of homesick (ruby) in bash. It needs to be sourced in .{bash,z}shrc and has features like tracking files from multiple repos (so cal

I wonder why it wasn't possible to restart the mistakenly shut down engine. The article states that in first seconds after the shutdown, the pilots were unaware of their mistake. They then noticed the plane stopped climbing and actuall

As I work on quite a big directory tree, where most of the repos are in just a few parent directories, I like using the CDPATH variable that is present in at least (oh-my-)zsh and bash(-completion) (IIRC). That would auto-update when new di

Probably true; the architecture we had in the team was nonexistant, so it turned into a mess... XSLT then has nothing to improve upon. If you start out "right", you probably will be able to enjoy XSL.

I need to agree. Using XSLT to write a XML -> HTML website is not a good idea - at least when a bunch of developers maintain it over time. From the ground up, I admit I like XSLT. But: maintaining large sites that inherit templates (call
