The conclusion I got from the article sounds like "talk to the user like normal human beings talk to one another". This seems like a very obvious and non-controversial idea, in hindsight. I wonder if that says more about how weird

Again, if you need to revoke a certificate, it means something terrible happened - someone compromised your server and your website has a good chance to be impersonated by 3rd parties. In all the other cases, you just let the old cert expir

If you cache the revocation list, you lose all the benefits of instant revocation making the whole process pointless.

Checking for revocation doesn't scale and has serious privacy implications. There are two ways to do revocation: CRL and OCSP. CRL is a list that becomes huge over time - hosting it would require massive amounts of bandwidth and client

Why do you need a "service" for this? It looks like something you could run very well locally.

I find this kind of comment revolting - if I owe something, I owe it to my family and my parents, so if Meta comes to make me an offer and I accept it, it's my business and no one else's. Strangers on the internet, instead of judg

The access from mainland to HK goes through the firewall, the access from HK to the normal internet is unrestricted as far as I know. The communication between the two VMs still needs to be obfuscated and encrypted. The only reason for the

HK "outside" the firewall, for now. It's where you would place the outside VM.

The VM instance is good for setting up a VPN tunnel, but it's not good in terms of bandwidth if it's hosted in. Because of DPI capacity, China has a very limited amount of "real internet" bandwidth. A more capable setup

I follow him on LinkedIn: he works on the things that will come in 10 years, not on the products that Meta ships in 1-2 years. LeCunn is going to be there for some time.

This is great and I hope they release all the other apps that right now can only be added on a Dream Router/Dream machine, etc. What I would like to see: 1. IPv6. I tried for several days to patch various warts in the Unifi Network Ser

I don't think most people would contest the 100 years you mentioned. If we look at the military investments US did since Clinton(so, last 30 years), you'll notice a trend of looking after it's own interests before the ones of

Sure, but you forget something. It's impossible to have a discussion with someone you consider inferior to you and they know it(eg. "Trump supporters are morons"). This makes them vote with the person who is willing to have t

Full homomorphic encryption is not the future for private internet, confidential VMs are. CVMs are using memory encryption and separation from the host OS. ARM has TEE, AMD has SEV and Intel has been fumbling around with SGX and TDX for mor

This guy is obviously the most senior person in a small startup. To me personally, calling yourself a CTO with a CV entry that amounts to what an L5 in a FAANG does in a half, is a bit ridiculous. What title would HN recommend for such a po

I have a few big problems with this ruling: 1. The sum. You are tracked and you get shown some ads. How does that causes you 5k EUR in damages? 2. Responsibility. If a site decides to add tracking or ads from a company, is only the ads comp

A government agency will have less incentives to be corrupt, in theory. On the flip side, it will be incompetent and demotivated. If you think about it, kosher and halal stamps on food products are something like this, and they existed for

What actual problem is this trying to solve? They mention patch/diff format not being good enough, but they don't explain for whom. Are GNU Patch people complaining? What are these people building that needs a better patch format?

Carmack is a very smart guy and I agree with the sentiment behind his post, but he's a software guy. Unfortunately for all of us hardware has bugs, sometimes bugs so bad that you need to drop 30-40% of your performance to mitigate them
