And usually my wheel is better. Because I don't copy blindly ripoffs from code sites, adding my mistakes as well.
It's like music: you want Led Zeppelin? Get Jimmy Page and refine and retune each and every sound.
Otherwise go on Ibiza and do remix of remix of remix. And the result is the most garbage of the garbage known to man: european discopop. I would call it [complete here with the hype scripted language of the day].

Actually, it’s even worse than that – it’s really 67.37% – but let’s not split hairs over that right now. The point is that it’s an alarmingly high number for what amounts to very simple configuration vulnerabilities. Here's what you need to know. Server Error in "/funny subhead" Application.

It’s really not that hard to make an awesome command-line app. If you do it right, the end result is a highly polished, well-documented, easily installable and maintainable piece of software that will be a part of my command-line arsenal for quite a while. These rules will help. sudo solve my problems --now!

Powershell does have a lot going for it, but I personally find bash/zsh more useful as the universe of tools and knowledge to draw upon is orders of magnitude larger than for Powershell.

I do not know about bash/zsh, but going OO has significant advantages, and few disadvantages. The disadvantage would be that more thought has to go into creating scripts.

Marijn Haverbeke is not only the author of several pretty useful Common Lisp libraries (some of which he touches in the interview), but also a succesful JavaScript hacker, winning JS1K contest, and writing a profound book about the language — "Eloquent JavaScript". Besides, he hacks on Mozilla Rust and his own language Hob, not to mention co-authoring a JavaScript-to-Common-Lisp transpiler, writing some games in Scheme, and experimenting with Haskell. Marijn Haverbeke wrote one of the most influential books on JavaScript. Here are his thoughts on Lisp.

Back in the 80’s, home computers like the Commodore 64 had an integrated BASIC interpreter. Any kid could learn programming on these machines. Actually, this was one of the major selling points to parents. Unfortunately, today no tablet comes with an interpreter built-in; actually some tablet vendors seem to actively discourage such interpreters. This means that no one can learn how to program on a tablet. It could help a whole generation of kids to learn programming.

Not even a Windows 7 tablet? One I tried had CSC, it must have had VBC as well. Granted that's not exactly the same as a BASIC interpreter, but it still allows the user to use/learn a programming language.

If you've ever had to troubleshoot errors a proprietary file format or wire protocol, you know it's a struggle, at best. Text formats make it easy to examine what is happening under the hood of a fancy UI, to quickly fix small problems and to manipulate the file using other programs. All your ASCII are belong to us.

That's part of the reason XML is so great. It has the advantage if organizing the data also, but at the cost of a lot more texts. Of course text files have a cost in size also, but by today's standards it is small. Only when you get to pictures and video does size bloat to the point of having to worry about it. Thank god we no longer have to fit things on a floppy disk.

After working with SQL Server for over a decade, I realized that I didn’t have a good answer that would satisfy my customers' concerns about SQL Server security. We have an entire company built around this product, we should probably understand how the security works. So I did some research and here's what I found. Understanding the CRUD under the Tables.

Online PC gaming is known for being full of dirty cheaters. Cheats can be implemented through many methods from simple to impressively complex. Macros, hex editing, memory inspection, memory modification, DLL injection, network manipulation, packet modification, and lord knows how many more. Direct X interception is a particularly naughty breed of hacking. By sharing knowledge of its inner workings hopefully that damage can be mitigated.

The point isn't to claim that C++ is the "one true language", but rather that any benefit a programming language has for the programmer doesn't matter. If writing code in language X makes you 100x more productive but produces slow code, then all your users will notice is that your programs are slow. The proof is in the coding.

What your customers will notice most is determined by their priorities. Time-to-market and technical accuracy can both trump absolute speed. Authentication delays and complex queries wouldn't run any faster if the code were reduced to one machine instruction.

This is quite true . . . until after the delivery. Then the complaint is about speed.
Actually, they original items you have are, in their fashion, also about speed, albeit delivery.
Whatever phase they're currently involved with, be it awaiting delivery or consuming the deliverable, customers/users want a manifestation of speed.
I think the best way to interpret the quote is over the long haul. Assuming there actually is a longer development time with C++ (not necessarily so), is it so much longer as to outweigh the benefits? Also, if as you gave as an example, one is SQL-ish Server bound for throughput, then it hardly matters.

Right. Is enough to look at once-C++-now-not-C++-Hotmail to count how many clicks you have to push onto the new mail message. Now that's a progress in the time to market. All I see is that I can't read my email so I moved to other (C++) clients. Such as Outlook.

If your software is fast but buggy all they'll notice is the bugs.
If your software is fast but new features (and change requests) are slow to arrive all they'll notice is the lack of features.
If your language of choice delivers good speed, mitigation of bugs, and fast development time then that's what they'll notice.
