As a non-C programmer, why would "header only" be a good thing?

I mean, i think you need to look more into it than that. If you make a test that always returns true, it would also meet that criteria.

I feel like that kind of word of mouth is not enough to compensate. Like how many customers is word of one sucessful match expected to attract?

I think the second paragraph is. They are saying that an "error" is any departure from legal principles, and the poster is saying that that is a bad definition of error.

Yeah, and sometimes if you pull an all nighter bad things happen as a result of lack of sleep. So it is an apt metaphor.

Did i miss the part of the RFC that says google must accept every message? Pretty sure the RFC allows email providers to reject any message they feel like.

Sure, but you can also evaluate if it gets awards, or buyers, buzz, etc. I agree its pretty subjective and not the essiest thing to evaluate, but i think its certainly possible.

True, but its not a free for all. Judges (especially in a common law juridsiction) are supposed to be consistent and interpret laws following certain principles. There are more right and less right interpretations - thus we can grade judges

I dont see how we are getting "answers". Disagreeing with program design is not a question. Tbh though, that doesn't sound that special. Many countries subsidize artists.

I don't really agree, but you could argue that GLP is targeting people who want a magic solution just like casinos.

That's far from clear. XMPP is still probably a minor use caee of client certificates.

As a general rule in cryptography, a lot of vulnerabilities relate confusing the system by using a correct thing in the wrong context. Making it a rule that you have to use separate chains for separate purposes is a good rule from a general

You are being pedantic but also pedantically incorrect. Lets encrypt provides value by providing signed TLS certs that are enrolled in webPKI (i.e. trusted by browsers). If they were just provided a (not necessarily trusted) tls cert, like

Too late for an edit, i read a bit more about how xmpp works, i guess the cert is not really about network access controls or authenticating the connection, but authenticating the data is coming from the right server. So i guess that could

I feel like using web pki for client authentication doesn't really make sense in the first place. How do you verify the common name/subject alt name actually matches when using a client cert. Using web pki for client certs seems l

That's not how this would work. Based on previous history where people actually did call google's bluff to their regret, what happens is that google trusts all current certificates and just stops trusting new certs as they are iss

Google didn't force lets encrypt to totally get out of the client cert business, they just decided it wasn't worth the effort anymore.

Being cold doesn't seem that big a problem. I think the bigger concern is what sudden climate shifts might do to agriculture. If some farmland becomes much less viable on a wide basis, that might be much harder to adjust to on the shor
