That “python float” example is a hall of shame for Google, not python. I searched the same term using kagi.com and first results are exactly what the author expects. Link: https://kagi.com/search?q=python+float&r=us&

I don't get the OCSP Stampling protocol: if the server needs / is able to to contact the CA frequently anyway, why not simply use very short-lived certificates?

I don't think the existence of Wayland means X11 is deprecated. Lots of people (including myself) would prefer the perfectly working X11 than the feature-incomplete backward-incompatible "modern" wayland

If the router reboots, it cannot remember the correct mapping of the last connection, right? (The mapped port may not be the original source port)
71.
by blahgeek 2y ago
Is it common for routers to create a new mapping for TCP packets that is NOT SYN (in figure 3 in this article)? Is there a legit use case for this behavior? Wouldn't it be simpler and more secure not to do that?
72.
by blahgeek 2y ago
Yeah. Although X11 is stable and mature and already have every tools we need, apparently Wayland is the new cool thing and we now need to reinvent every wheels (and sometimes for each WMs separately).

On the bright side, it can also automatically apply updates and reboot in the blink of an eye, so all you perceives is that every app windows disappear. :)

No offense, but I think that's a very western-centric view. Your example only make sense when the user is familiar to English (or other western languages, I guess). To me personally, I find it strange that "D.txt" and "d

I guess it would be interesting to implement this for DBUS using FUSE.

It seems like it's reinventing (an partial, incomplete, non-standard) Xorg protocol on top of Wayland, while we can simply use X11

It’s sad that this type of projects will not be possible with Wayland, because apparently pluggable wm is not a thing in Wayland

We actually have the similar behavior when writing to files: contents are buffered in page cache and are written to disk later in batch, unless user explicitly call "sync".

It bothers me that they are only doing the transition now. It should have been done 20 years ago. 2038 is less than 15 years away and I bet a significant portion of systems will not be upgraded during this period. (As a reference, Windows 7

The description mentioned socat as a replacement. Does anyone know how? "man socat" examples only show using readline for sending TCP messages.
