[QUOTE="Local Host, post: 970305"] You looking at it the wrong way, you not using the bicycle you building it, and if you just copy others without understanding what you doing, you get a mediocre product. If you copy pasting over 200k lines of code, you doing something wrong. I agree with the article, we cursed with lazy and mediocre developers that copy paste others code, and there's lots of drawbacks including performance costs (not only security). Lots of outdated code online that don't take into account newer standards (not to mention you could be copying the wrong solution for your problem). I rather take months to write my code from scratch, with all the ups of downs of debugging, rather than copying someone elses dirty code (unfortunally this is not possible for everyone, due to lack of knownledge and time constrains). [I]As for the context of the article itself, Java Libraries having exploits is not news to anyone, and that particular game Minecraft, is dirty code from top to bottom.[/I] [/QUOTE]
