  1. Redmine on Ask Slashdot: Professional Journaling/Notes Software? · · Score: 1
  2. Re:Why aren't we using PNG? on New Mozilla Encoder Improves JPEG Compression · · Score: 1

    Because 3x storage and bandwidth usage is more expensive than 1x. The difference is specially more noticeable in large scale for the hosters than for clients.

  3. Re:This is novel but it's not new on US Forces Coursera To Ban Students From Cuba, Iran, Sudan, and Syria · · Score: 1

    FYI: Google Code has been banned to Iranians for years.

  4. Re:Rust on Ask Slashdot: It's 2014 -- Which New Technologies Should I Learn? · · Score: 1

    Nice suggestions, but I wouldn't count that as "web development".

  5. Re:NoScript on Ask Slashdot: Are AdBlock's Days Numbered? · · Score: 1

    No need to do heavy stuff in JavaScript. Just put the whole page under a visibile cover and remove the cover using JavaScript on page load event. >:)

  6. Re:no on Linux x32 ABI Not Catching Wind · · Score: 1

    Just use i386. You can even run i386 userland over an amd64 kernel. I can't see the big benefit of x32 over this scheme.

  7. Re:Please retain network transparency on Ubuntu Dumps X For Unity On Wayland · · Score: 1

    Because X11 can be run over Wayland, ssh -X should continue working. So I'm not so worried about that.

  8. Re:Quanta? on KDE Developers Discuss Merging Libraries With Qt · · Score: 1

    Because not enough money was donated to Quanta developers to show that "people are waiting...".

  9. Re:Some people don't care how many others they scr on Stuxnet Worm May Have Targeted Iranian Reactor · · Score: 1

    I guess he was talking about Israel.

  10. Re:Who cares on Mozilla Unleashes the Kraken · · Score: 1

    Put security first please. All major browsers have got a bad track of security issues.

  11. Re:Javascript on Mozilla Unleashes the Kraken · · Score: 1

    On Mozilla platform, JavaScript is not "one small part". Major parts of the browser and add-ons logic are implemented in JS. So the faster the JS engine, the faster the whole browser.

  12. Re:Standing and fighting is for glass makers on Iran Unveils Its First UAV Bomber · · Score: 1

    You're simply in a very wrong oversimplification. Iranian society is more complex than that. (I'm an Iranian who arguably knows Iranian society better than 99% of other slashdotters.)

  13. Re:Ubuntu already had popularity-content in place on Canonical Begins Tracking Ubuntu Installations · · Score: 1

    You meant popularity-contest.

  14. Googles bans us on Google Releases Chrome 5.0 For Win/Mac/Linux · · Score: 1

    Google bans download of Google Chrome in Iran (and probably a few other countries.) It redirects me to http://dl.google.com/service/prod_unavailable.html

  15. Re:Too late on The Final Release of Apache HTTP Server 1.3 · · Score: 1

    , but their fate chose 42 for them.

  16. Re:PHP is slow (check), now what.... on Facebook Rewrites PHP Runtime For Speed · · Score: 1

    This is scored 5-Interesting? Am I at Slashdot?

  17. Re:Dear Hugo Chavez on Radio Hams Fired Upon In Haiti · · Score: 1

    He didn't name the weapon he was talking about. FYI it is called HAARP.

  18. Google bans Iranians on YouTube Revamp Imminent? · · Score: 1
  19. Re:Hells about to freeze over ... on The Environmental Impact of PHP Compared To C++ On Facebook · · Score: 1

    Of course Valgrind is not for deploying! It is used to find memory bugs while developing.
    Thanks for the laugh! :D

  20. Re:Hells about to freeze over ... on The Environmental Impact of PHP Compared To C++ On Facebook · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Your C++ info is so 90s. FYI:
    A descent C++ web framework: Wt
    Memory management is a non-issue with RAII, smart pointers, Boehm garbage collector, and finally Valgrind.
    Qt or LiteSQL don't need to be "standard" to do their job.

  21. Re:Assuming... on The Environmental Impact of PHP Compared To C++ On Facebook · · Score: 1
  22. Re:Interpreted Languages... on The Environmental Impact of PHP Compared To C++ On Facebook · · Score: 1

    Dynamic languages are not as compilable as static ones. They are at best compiled into an intermediate form (usually called bytecode) which is run by some virtual machine. I guess PHP accelerators work this way.

  23. Re:I know someone... on Man "Beats" World of Warcraft · · Score: 1

    His name is Google.

  24. bleed on Microsoft Investigates Windows 7 "Black Screen of Death" · · Score: 1

    BLack scrEEn of Death

  25. Content of golang.org for a visitor from Iran on Go, Google's New Open Source Programming Language · · Score: 1
