It does, but it would've mirrored your latest commit before it went down. Anyway, here's how you connect Keybase to GitHub: https://blog.codefor.cash/2019/08/30/free-automatic-github-b... https:&#x

Deploy to another Heroku environment and use DNS to reroute the traffic temporarily?

I wrote some open source code to automatically mirror all my commits to Keybase. </shameless plug> I think read replica mirrors are good practice for fault-tolerant systems

srosenberg: you've really caught my attention here. I'm likely unqualified for the job, but I would appreciate any feedback on my approach. WolframAlpha says ChineseRemainder[{145767, 109572}, {611939, 598463}] is 243085550 So as

I see a common fantasy among developers; they want to apply their sophisticated intellect and technical knowledge towards exploiting financial markets. So, my argument is that if this is what one is up to, one is not going to find many val

That's a reasonable argument then, and now I appreciate the metaphor. If one is interested in the technical details of implementation for technical reasons, I would agree that a brilliant and interesting engineer wouldn't necessar

Graham, Buffett, Soros – sure, ok, although I doubt they're giving away the keys to the kingdom in their books. Buffet himself is notorious for saying that great ideas are proprietary and not to be shared. In the investment world, in

OK, contributed $10 there as well. Worst case I'm out $20, best case I've done my tiny part to keep the ball rolling.

Some people think that Robinhood front-runs its customers as well. I am not accusing them of that, and I am sure their policy is clearly outlined in their fine print terms of use agreement. The finance world is very different from the star

by gargarplex 7y ago
Thanks; I did not know that. I perceive that a mature brokerage would be more likely to be covered in the event of a "bailout" – are there any other advantages, e.g. 24x7 customer service via phone, including ability to place ord

Exchange risk is a real thing. For all the positives and fun that Robinhood provides, dealing with immature platforms that aren't backed in full by the faith of the US government and social contracts is in most cases not worth the cos

I didn't downvote you – in fact, I upvoted you. But I should also make the point that worker threads do not support importing native Node modules that were built directly on the V8 API. For example, most popular sqlite libraries (bet

Excellent source; thanks! It’s probably worth clarifying that Node is ⅓ the speed of Java in some of these cases and that the Node implementations use both fixed size typed arrays as well as worker threads, features that aren’t common pract

I never claimed whatsoever that Rails itself is inherently more vulnerable. I made my comment with having maintained Rails apps for many years and watching the CVE list.

by gargarplex 7y ago
I figure, if you ever want to attack a Rails app (white hat on), go through the CVE list and try every vulnerability. There's been so many with exploit codes and it's dubious that every single service is patched.
