Yepp. It works while offline. And it issues the same code on all devices for 30s. I would say it's using TOTP internally

setting it via a meta-tag kind of defeats the purpose of course. It's much easier to inject a policy clearing meta tag (or change an existing one to contain something invalid) than it is to forge a non-strict header.

bestvideo+bestaudio has been flip-flopping ver time and releases between mp4 and webm though. As I'm mostly using this for consumption on an iPad, I prefer mp4, so I'm happy to have found a way to get the best possible mp4 version

-f also supports some symbolic names, which is very handy because it allows you to easily get the best possible quality without having to check the formats every time: -f 'bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]' this is wh

The white paper doesn't say anything about additional public keys messages are encrypted for. It states that: - The private keys remain on the devices (which is good, but they don't need them to read your messages) - The messages

The one thing iMessage and WhatsApp have in common is that they both end-to-end encrypt without giving the user control over the keys being used. So ignoring actual protocol and implementation flaws (I agree with you that WhisperSystems wil

Not really. What's much faster is the wraparound protection vacuum which is a special more thorough vacuum that runs at a configured interval which defaults to every 200M transactions against a database. Only that one is sped up to now

considering that they have actual test code which also takes quite a while to run, I would assume that there are systems misbehaving in many different ways, all of which might cause this feature to break, so all of them needs to be tested a

This is information I would never accept an external dependency on. There are not too many IP ranges around, so this information can easily be stored somewhere and used without the need to query an external service. Having the data locally

Just a little heads-up: Postgres is very easy to run on your own and even in the default configuration runs well even for a considerable amount of users. Over here, we only started to seriously thinking about what we're doing once we w

I am totally impressed by the work 2ndQuadrant is doing: many of the recent innovations to Postgres have been done by them and all of that without any obligation for them to be doing so. The BSD license would allow them to add all of these

I don't think this is entirely true: Even if you're appending lines to a text-file, if you do it from multiple concurrent threads, you're going to potentially corrupt individual lines. And if you want to make absolutely sure
