Not really a problem with UDP itself, but with some very old protocols like DNS that rely on UDP but can’t be changed because of compatibility. If you’re writing a new service that uses UDP, there’s nothing stopping you from designing it so that it doesn’t provide an opportunity for bandwidth amplification.

The fact that most universities will graduate CS majors without ever teaching them how to use a debugger, build system, or version control system shows how useful they are to actual engineering work.

Pascal’s little-known friend Luigi’s wager.

If you pay with your CC and sign the receipt after seeing the total, you’re going to have a very hard time getting it removed.

This is brilliant. Definitely going to try this tomorrow.

Not only that - they’re dying in the street immediately adjacent to vacant luxury condos.

Only if they are well-known in the language you’re using or domain you’re writing for. x and y are fine for coordinates. i and j are fine for loop indices. But abbreviating things unnecessarily is bad IMO. s = GetSession() is too terse, for example.

Joke’s on you - my back hurts all the time!

Don’t be so quick to dismiss the feedback from compliance teams. It’s possible TOU are written such that you really can’t store data on the client without agreement. It’s also possible that other regulations besides GDPR apply that you may not be aware of, for example those specific to banking or health.

I think you meant IAbstractBlahBlahManagerFactoryControlBeansHandlerFactoryFactory6ProxyHandlerAsync_Compat3, and of course its test counterpart, IAbstractBlahBlahManagerFactoryControlBeansHandlerFactoryFactory6ProxyHandlerAsync_Compat3::FakeMockVirtualDeviceTestManagerBeansFactory2_HACK_DO_NOT_USE

And technical expertise, and the ability to use a computer without accessibility aids, and the notion of what a “format” is so that they can open their kids’ halloween homework assignment without the formatting being completely broken, and the ability to solve computer problems on their own without calling Geek Squad or visiting a Genius Bar…

I agree there’s nothing consistent, but having 3 as a factor in ratios does make things nicer - it lets you stick with integer numbers for more things. I’m not saying it’s better than metric, but I do think having more small factors in ratios is nicer than having only the factors 5 and 2.

Base-60 ftw.

Metric is 100% better in every single way, bar none.

Imperial unit ratios tend to have a greater number of smaller factors, which makes fractions nicer. 1yd/3 = 1ft. 1ft/3 = 4in.

I’m in this meme and I’m kind of okay with it.

”Inapaswa kuwa katika makumbusho!”

Such a great movie - Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker had great chemistry.

Honestly it’s refreshing to not see the word “slammed” for once…
