Well, I suppose it's perfectly valid to write a propellor property puppetClient PuppetConfig :: Property So if propellor's capabilities for (re)installing a system are why you want to use it, it can be composed with other configur

You know, programs could version their UI's. I was struck in Bram Cohen's interview by how much care he's taken to avoid changing vim's behavior at all, while still letting nice new features be added. In the case of vim,

Typically gpg is used in asychronous communication. Ie, I encrypt or sign something and send the file to someone else who decrypts or verifies it at their leisure. So how can timing attacks be used?

Debian has already released a batch patched to only treat BASH_FUNC_FOO() as exported functions. It's the second half of the security fix, so I recommend upgrading. There is a small potential for breakage as you mention, but less than

Gnome, KDE, XFCE, LXDE, MATE, Cinnamon, Unity. I find this list beyond frustrating, and verging on absurd. I tend to think of this as the lack of pipes problem. Every unix tool can be piped into or out of every other tool, and so combined w

It's an interesting design question to pick orderings that work best with currying. Oddly though, when writing haskell code, I don't worry about it much. Once I find myself needing to `flip` a function before using it, I have dete

This reminds me that I have a small amount of tips on gittip. However, I can only withdraw it by adding a bank account. Security concerns make this not appealing, at least not at the current level of funds. The cost/benefit is not ther

Here are two ways to decentralize git usefully: 1. Add the ability to git push over git:// to any git repository, which results in a patch being presented to the repository owner in some useful way Ie, reverse github pull requests

I played this for a while with redshift on, and so didn't realize that the requirements for needs were listed (in invisible red). I think it may have actually made the game better in some ways.

I'm hoping to see a chrome extension that flags every certificate issued before 2014/04/07 as insecure. In the meantime, I am switching to firefox to use certificate patrol for anything I care about.

I don't feel this belongs on the front page of HN. I was pretty worried when I posted it though. The remaining questions are 1. Is openssl(1) really only intended for "debugging purposes"? 2. http://www.philandstuf

Why is the signature fed through a bitcoin script? Not using a (non-turing-complete-but-still) programming language to encode a signature seems like a good first step to avoiding malleability. Bitcoin has good/interesting reasons for u

AFAICS, the arguments about restarting pid 1 on upgrade being a problem also apply to sysvinit, which has been restarting itself on upgrade for 20 years.
