No, makes sense, using open source means they can make sure there are no backdoors in there they don't know about, and can implement their own without developing their own solution from scratch.

It also means that no external company will know exactly how many servers they have
It wouldn't even surprise me if they were to have their own chip factory to keep that type of detail hidden.

While Oracle has a cloud platform that it’s been trying to spread to the masses for a few years, the biggest deal regarding the new cloud upgrade is supposedly the ability for people to use Oracle’s database in the cloud or on-premise in their own environment. "What is cloud computing? It's complete gibberish. It's insane. When is this idiocy going to stop?"

In a bid to secure even more of the Internet’s websites through the use of secure connections, San Francisco-based content delivery network and Internet security provider CloudFlare has launched a new free service for both its paying and free customers: automatic Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption for any site, without the need to pay for or configure an encryption certificate. And I didn't get them anything!

The software testing community is in the midst of a deep and contentious rift, with ISO 29119 at its heart. The International Organization for Standardization, in conjunction with the IEC and IEEE, has put forth ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119—a set of standards governing testing processes, documentation, techniques and keyword-driven testing designed to create uniform testing practices within any SDLC or organization.
Who knew testers could get so worked up?

If you’ve purchased a “System Builder” OEM copy of Windows 8.1 from Amazon, Newegg, or another online retailer, you’re probably violating the Windows license agreement. That means you technically have a “non-genuine” copy of Windows.
Sneaky, sneaky Microsoft.

Try to get your hands on a System Builder license of Windows 8 then. There are still copies on eBay etc. I guess. The update to Windows 8.1 is free for Windows 8 users anyways, but this way you are not violating any weird licensing terms.

The venerable AJAX Control Tookit has been downloaded over 9 million times. THAT’S A LOT. It was created in a time before jQuery, in a time before AJAX, in a time before today’s modern web. However, it’s super useful, and we here at DevExpress appreciate that there is a lot of good use to be had in these kinds of libraries. Good news if you couldn't move off of it

 Some of the worst years of my development life were spent dealing with that monstrosity.
Anybody ever try to change the CSS styling of the ACT calendar popup? This toolkit was quite possibly #1 in the list of reasons I ran - screaming - from webforms development.

|

Yup. I sure did.
I made it Red, White & Blue.
White Background
Blue Text & Borders
Red controls & selectedDate
Even did seasonal versions for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, ST. Patrick's Day, Valentine's Day, and my birthday: Royal Purple, Yellow and Fuschia, simply to do some diff colors.

Microsoft is building, testing and updating Windows in a very different way, starting with Windows Threshold. In many ways, those changes matter more than the new bits themselves. "There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful."

IT professionals seeking certifications in the coming months may get their best return with cloud and security-related certifications. Agile-related training won’t hurt, either. "Plastics"

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
