Why would you run Ubuntu for that, Node runs pretty well on Windows, I work with it daily. Combined with VS Code I'm not sure what there should be missing...

I would check if something in the signing process is going wrong, refer to this (very long) SO thread: https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/109629/deprecat... We actually switched certificates (from StartC

That's not true though. We have very little volume installs and since the EV, there has has not been one of these messages..

Check this Stack overflow thread. For us it was cached SHA1 certificates in the cert chain: https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/109629/deprecat... But yeah, it's a pain..

Interesting, what command did you use? This works for us without any issues: signtool sign /a /fd SHA256 /tr " http://timestamp.globalsign.com/?signature=sha2" /td SHA256 <exefile>

This alert would not show if you used SHA256 instead of SHA1, which was deprecated: https://www.globalsign.com/en/blog/microsoft-announces-updat... EV certs immediately gain trust: https://blogs.msdn.mi

I think a proper EV should not show any warning at all. The issue here is using SHA1 instead of SHA256, not sure why op would do this. SHA1 signing was deprecated.. https://www.globalsign.com/en/blog/microsoft-anno

I'm sorry for making too generic statements, I'm not trying to have a bad discussion, really. Regarding the personal risk comment, I could've been more clear: From what I got, no lawyer can give you a guarantee at the moment,

I'm not sure what else I should reply to something like your comment before tbh. Neither can I predict the future, nor am I a lawyer. I'm just posting about my opinion, which I got by gathering information online and from consulti

Just a personal risk I'm willing to take. I don't think they'll come for the small fish first.

I have an actual business, thank you. And I did my homework by talking to a lawyer about it. What I got from this talk is, that most of the stuff that is going around is pure panic mode. Please, don't take my words as granted but talk

No - you cannot ignore it when you are a small company that's true. But you can (probably, we'll see) ignore it if you don't do shady shit with your customer data. You are allowed to process data, if it's used to fulfill

The thing is, he can't say anything else. There are no reference cases in court yet, so it will need to be decided what is actually true. However, this cases will be fought with the Googles & Facebooks, not with 5 person companies.

Sure, feel free to "leave", really, no offense. We talked to a lawyer in Germany regarding this (we are a small software company with 5 people). His response was: If you don't do shady shit with customer data, you'll pro

There is so much misconception about GDPR. It is cleary directed at large data-tracking corps, not single person IM apps. Even if someone tries to "sue" you (which he can't, only report you to authorities), it first needs to

Um.. I'm not sure the article author is familiar with the fact that "Skype for business" (the "complex" one) is actually home grown and was just rebranded from Lync. This is not at all the same as the consumer Skype

I mean, the Instagram App is also available on Windows, with almost all features as the iOS/Android counterparts. So I'm not sure, maybe they are already using that as well?

It hurts so much to read stories like this, where politics stands in the way of education, especially when the university already approved. Have you thought about coming to Germany? Not the US, but not bad either.. https://www.da

Potentially relevant, with much less moving parts: A bigger kind of "Hubspeicherkraftwerk" (not sure about the english name, wikipedia does not offer one ;)) - carve out a large cylindrical block of a mountain and pump water below

This is a great idea. We are already using Zendesk for our main product, but I could see me using that for side projects, as it's much less bloat!
