"File Transfer Protocol (FTP, the standard network used when working from home) "

May be at CNN, that is what they use to work from home.

HN greatly overestimates how dead FTP is.

[sliverstorm]

But I heard FTP was declared harmful and phased out in 1970?

Tell that to my wordpress projects....

You can. Put this line in the config file:

define( 'FS_METHOD', 'direct');

yeah because we had scp and rsync. Hell even dropbox.

Looks like they updated the article to read "File Transfer Protocol (FTP, the standard network used when transferring big files)". Better, although it's still wrong to call FTP a "network".

yeah, what the heck??
