and yet still doesn't use array dereferencing

eugh. really? If true, I'd imagine they do it to appease mobile users.

AWS was hit today, we saw a spike failures. Got hold of one of AWS guys and they basically noticed that the issue they saw in the US earlier in the day happened again in EU west. Funnily enough they probably could have avoided it if they'd deployed their mitigation to the other zones.

It 100% is. Theres someone i've NEVER spoken to in my life other than over whatsapp, they know noone I know and yet they popped up on my suggested friends list.

but the employers are the ones more likely to pay to get their advert promoted, featured etc.

yes, they should be. and they are (Mail opens) - but my point is the link opens in a new window which is blank, then brings up the Mail

why does mailto: open in a new window?

ALRIGHT THAT'S COOL

nah, you're going mad: http://i.imgur.com/1TPBQVU.png

well, a lot of people's work is reliant on it, so i'd say it's a pretty important thing.

> Also, please use GitLab.

and you can't just say "use xyz".

just run `!rm` and hope for the best

"faulty SQL queries caused us to have to restore the database"

Nope, IIRC he didn't technically own the domain, it just showed up in his account as owning it (therefore he could have viewed analytics and other information) - but he didn't actually have permission to change the domain.

It's a long article, but here seem to be the relevant parts:

Facebook researchers started the project by compiling the most frequent responses people had to posts: “haha,” “LOL,” and “omg so funny” all went in the laughter category, for instance. Emojis with eyes that transformed into hearts, GIF animations with hearts beating out of chests, and “luv u” went in the love category. Then they boiled those categories into six common responses, which Facebook calls Reactions: angry, sad, wow, haha, yay, and love.

Facebook Reactions won’t get rid of like—it will be an extension. Within the company, there was some debate on how to add the options without making every post look crowded with things to click. The simpler Facebook is to use, the more people will use it. Zuckerberg had a solution: Just display the usual thumbs-up button under each post, but if someone on her smartphone presses down on it a little longer, the other options will reveal themselves. Cox’s team went with that and added animation to clarify their meaning, making the yellow emojis bounce and change expression. The angry one turns red, looking downward in rage, for example. Once people click their responses, the posts in News Feed show a tally of how many wows, hahas, and loves each generated.

edit: Yay was rejected as a choice.

Basically:

1. CSS transitions to slowly move the scenery

2. Hover states for the two walls (and the "game over" screen)

The CSS negative margin you've applied to `.row` is causing your page to add vertical scrollbars. You should remove the padding from `.container-fluid` and apply margins to the inner elements to stop it. It looks naff.

Slight digression but I find it a bit odd they've used Safari in their screenshots.

How nice of them to give me $1 off when paying yearly.

You just say, bingo.

I'm literally not surprised by anything in this article. Joomla is a mess (my opinion, doesn't actually matter to my point), written in PHP so whenever a patch is released, you can see exactly what the exploit was. In fact, I'm surprised it's not less than 2 hours.

So obviously, "Patch now!" - although, that's not the prerogative of this site, it's to convince you to purchase their "website antivirus" -- which I still can't work out what it actually does, or where it sits.

$862m isn't that huge in the grand scheme of things. Not to mention, it's most likely not going to be $862m, my guess is it'll be less.

That's nearly 10% of their work force.

I'm not OP but I'm guessing "...we plan to part ways..." - however, twitter is hardly going to say "...we decide to sack..."

They should just re-introduce the ability that they removed about a year or two ago: ability to remove your name from being searchable on facebook, unless the user knows your actual facebook.com/url.

I loved that writeup.

+1, their exception aggregation is lovely

Hosting like godaddy tends to not differ in performance between their lowest and highest packages, they just differ in cheap resources such as space, bandwidth, "number of allowed email accounts" etc. Processor, memory consumption and maximum concurrent users don't change.

Do you know anyone that is familiar with setting up VM's or managing servers? If so, hit them up and get them to set you up a linode vm (or whatever other provider you want) with nginx. If you don't, perhaps looking at getting a contractor to set you up.

I thought that because they were making money on the side, and therefore would be either a company, or sole trader, utilising their car that (in the UK anyways) it would fall under the banning a number of years back.
