The next NASA Rover is on schedule to land on Mars in February 2021, but it’s still missing one vital component: a name. Red Rover, Red Rover, send your ideas over
I'm pretty sure Rover McRoverface has already been submitted.

Google has confirmed that it is rolling out an emergency update to the Google Chrome web browser over the coming days to fix a high-severity vulnerability that could allow attackers to take control of your Windows, macOS or Linux system. I'd have thought they'd wait on this until they could report it as an Edge bug

Wouldn't it be far more efficient to just uninstall that piece of nosy, intrusive, and privacy-abusing cr@p it?

By now, many of you have seen the Perl 6 Github issue "Perl" in the name "Perl 6" is confusing and irritating. s/perl/raku/g
Not that I pay attention to perl or anything, but I thought perl 6 still wasn't released. I thought it was going to come out after Duke Nukem Forever, Half-life 3, and Taligent

We'll have to sneakily ask a question that only the real Perl will know the answer to, then shoot the clone.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

We're tuned to acknowledge those open source developers who contribute by adding new lines of code, but what about those who perform the equally or more important task of deleting cruft? My hero: rm -rf /

I just remembered some old projects:
- internationalization. Find all strings in the solution and create resources for them
- database cleanup. Find all string concatenated SQL queries and replace with parameterized queries.
Guess how much fun I had with dead code in the form of "backup projects" in the solution, backup files in projects, no more needed files in projects (build action=none), functions which are never called, ...?
The guy is right: delete code!
Oh sanctissimi Wilhelmus, Theodorus, et Fredericus!

HackerOne says that five more hackers have become millionaires after reporting security vulnerabilities through the vulnerability coordination and bug bounty platform. Brother can you spare a bug?
|
|
|
|

Now,This is the way to do it!
Hackers in +/- direct contact with software producers, looking for problems, and reporting them immediately to the software producers and only to the software producers!
Beats the crap out of the "security researchers" who look for trouble that they can use to up their social media profiles, or whatever.
One of the two groups of people, above, should be given the same short shrift as criminals, and treated as criminals.
The other group: Keep giving them the rewards for their work! More power to their elbows!

 Agree

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

TypeScript 3.6 introduces stricter checking for iterators and generator functions. (and much more) I'd put a 'your type' comment here, but that seems to be all I do for TypeScript

Stricter checking, oh yes, spank those iterators again and again, they've been naughty.

All wireless carriers admit to doing it: They slow down internet speed for video streaming, sometimes claiming that it is necessary to do so in order to control network congestion. "I am shocked—shocked"
