Isn't the main problem to secure the distribution of the key? > Maybe my site has been hacked and I don’t even know it. How would the fingerprint help in this case? If the fingerprint is also hosted on the website.

I am not nearly as knowledgeable as many of the commenters here on the hardware, but I do have first hand experiences running ARM on production at scale. What AWS offers and what Google offers are not even close: on AWS, our workloads actua

You seem very insightful on this topic. May I ask your opinion as to why ARM is taking off on the server market?

A silver lining I take from this is at least we have incidents page hosted somewhere else :) I look fondly to earlier AWS outages where everything is Green on the status page because the Red icon hosted on S3 was down...

No one is entitled to YT videos without ads. But at the same time, Google is not entitled to dictate how my user agent renders a page, locally, on my own computer . I'd have no problem if google just inject ads directly into the vid

And in America we earn our keep. Life is not fair, if someone's willing to work for less, you simply show up and do a better job and demand a better salary. Entitlement is not America, it's communism

You got a good point, but let me clarify a bit: my hire back was within 4 months so I didn't consume any HC since my position was not backfilled yet. Which I do think applies to this case, esp with ones say starting next Monday, their
