The one that I got a hit for was made specifically for New Relic. Is this some kind of sales platform or what? It's so tiresome to have your email become the town bike the moment any SaaS gets their hands on it.

Yes, but they also come with Google's release engineering, so at least you can be somewhat confident they've not been subverted in some way not intended by the authors of the browser. The way Ungoogled Chromium is distributed is w

After Microsoft's giant OneDrive bait-and-switch a few years ago I am super skeptical of any "too good to be true" storage pricing. I really wonder how it is physically possible to offer these rates.

You can also just enable versioning on the bucket which prevents PutObject from doing any permanent damage. If restic needs DeleteObject, you can also configure IAM to not allow deleting of specific versions, which means it can only tombsto

Whoever wrote that part of the net/http package probably wanted `Cookie` to fulfill the `Stringer` interface, so the compromise was to use an empty string. Mildly reminiscent of x/crypto/acme/autocert only having support

SaaS-ifying your docs seems risky to me. Writing documentation is a big investment and startups tend to come and go ("it's been an incredible journey"). $39/mo is much more than what it costs to self-host Confluence, whi

Forgive me for further splitting hairs, but you can buy SSL certificates without a credit card or proof of identity (Namecheap + Bitcoin since 2013 being one but not the only opportunity). I think this $ thing is an arbitrary line in the sa

Is your argument honestly that paying less than $10 is a sufficient deterrent for a serious attacker? To take advantage of a mis-issued certificate to begin with requires more resources than that. It's disingenuous to call this certif

Inaccurate status pages are fatiguing. Why are they not automated? It's such a drag to have to use Twitter and IRC to bully their CSRs into actually acknowledging problems. The cynic in me says that these companies want to get away wit

Well, I think they're worth separating. I've seen a raw SIGSEGV in Go due to a runtime bug years ago, and the only safe outcome is process termination. On the other hand, dereferencing a nil value in Go in relatively safe (as in J

When have you seen segfaults in Go? I think 100% of the time, it is either a bug in the Go runtime, or you're using cgo (which is not really Go anymore). A language as simple as Go without nilable types would be great, though.

Yeah, Linode Newark is an unaffected vantage point. Same with Vultr, but Digital Ocean is no go. Since the MX are spread between NYI/AS11403 and AS201628, I think that all mail delivery should still be fine. I'm receiving occasion

Well, they are directly included in most root programs now (ISRG Root X1). The cross-signing was a bootstrapping and compatibility solution (e.g. Windows XP). It seems likely at some point that they will drop the cross-signing.

At least with Let's Encrypt, you can revoke a certificate issued by a different ACME account, as long the ACME account you are revoking from has a valid authorization for all of the DNS identifiers on the certificate being revoked. Of
