If the CA is compromised, can’t they just bypass ACME verification and generate a cert for your domain anyway?

m is insert-ordered, not key-ordered. I guess “sorted” would be a better descriptor since “ordered” is ambiguous. Yes, arrays can be used as LIFO queues. They can also be used as FIFO queues with shift() instead of pop(), but the language d

As a val.town user and former cgi-bin user, I'd say it's a bit similar in terms of how I use it. If webhooks were a thing in the cgi-bin days and I needed a one-off script to run every time a webhook fired, I would have put a sc

There’s a list of coins that coinbase has sold that the SEC considers securities on page 33 of the filing, and Bitcoin is not in the list. They list coins like SOL and DASH. I’d paste the whole list but my phone won’t let me copy from a PDF

I'd like to know also. I've been looking to upgrade a Raspberry Pi 3 that runs a dashboard display and have been checking Raspberry Pi 4 stock, but if there's another device I should be using in the same MSRP range I'd

Nicely done! Dumb question, but as someone who is aware of server components but hasn't used it, what makes a hook “server component safe”? I assume it doesn't necessarily mean that you can use it on the server (e.g. useMouse), bu

There are a lot of people betting on WASM as a successor to linux containers for many use cases. Sockets and threads have been the main barriers IMHO to that happening. One exciting advantage of WASM over containers is that it can run acros

I can’t speak for everyone, but I upvoted it from nostalgia, having read the book version over a decade ago. I happened to be thinking about ordering a copy for the office just yesterday.

Unlike the block reward (mining subsidy) which is set according to a fixed schedule, fees are set by the market. They will go up if demand for L1 transactions go up, but there’s nothing in the protocol to push them up over time. Satoshi’s v

So the audio captcha was just two one-of-three challenges? How does this slow an automated bot down, it could just guess repeatedly and get it right 1/9th of the time.

They are neither VMs or containers, but V8 Isolates. They lacked an API for making outgoing raw TCP connections in the same way that JavaScript running in a browser can’t.

Due to a history of dishonest promotional contests, contest law in the US is actually pretty strict. It doesn’t surprise me at all that if you put on a contest and misrepresent some aspect of it, the court will not be happy. > his witnes

My understanding is that states are generally in charge of their own tort law. Federal law comes into play when multiple states are involved (interstate commerce), or when a state law is thought to be unconstitutional.
