This is not uncommon in compiled-to-native languages.

When I was forced to use OS X (for about 2 years), my homebrew stopped working (just partially wiped out and required 'doctor' or whatever) twice due to major OS updates. Not exactly breaking the system, but breaking all the tools

Opportunistic encryption in HTTPS was meant to address this, but I think there were problems.

Fastmail lets you write sieve filters. Not exactly the same but you could port them over, right?

When I went to use Caddy (because I love the idea of it), I was disappointed to find that there was no yum repo. Of course, this makes sense because you have to compile the features in. But, it would still be nice to have deployment automat

Yup, I have never seen a straight answer to this concern. One one hand, it seriously undermines the meaning of the browser padlock. On the other hand, this has already been happening in less visible ways - Cloudflare is definitely not the f

Perhaps the sentiment is valid, but practically speaking, in Rust you do even more of the compiler's work for it, no? I suppose one could just cherry-pick an analogue of the `try!` macro into Go.

For me, most of the time, the URLs it encoded didn't actually work if you put them back into the browser. Not sure if they were too long (they were really really long, seemed to encode stack information). Edit: here's someone comp

Angular 1 had, on the face of it, a nearly identical error message mechanism/website. It was annoying as hell and rarely useful. Maybe React will have better execution.

FWIW I got in contact with their R&D team earlier last week and they told me: no StartEncrypt API now, later it will support IETF ACME, maybe open source.

Hopefully the author only means to bring relative shares in from cgroups - absolute limits seem like they would only serve to throttle the browser for no good reason. If you do want to throttle a browser tab, let the user do this in the bro

Bit late, but an R&D contact from StartCom told me that they will be supporting IETF ACME with StartEncrypt, with the possibility of open source as well.

That's pretty sweet. I'd love to see something similar for the EL family: RHEL, CentOS, Fedora. There's certainly a lot of opportunity, I think, to improve the Linux package management ecosystem. For example, Spacewalk is kin

Well, not necessarily. Let's Encrypt gave us the ACME protocol. Would be nice if we started seeing competing implementations of that.

NEOs are still good. Have one for my PGP key, works great to move files between computers/OSes.

Compounding em is total hell to keep track of in my head, even with a stylesheet open in front of me. I'm not much on top of front-end, but why aren't rem units just better in every way?

That's great to hear. I can't live without Vimperator, and it's really good to see that there's a decent plan in place to keep it (or close substitute) alive.

I live in metro Melbourne and had a 90 minute commute to get to work nearby the CBD. Throwing away 3 hours, day in day out was really, really stupid, and nearly drove me to quit within 1-2 years. You can fit a lot of life in 3 hours. It&#x

A network-addressable store such as Redis is not the same as just being able to pull stuff out of memory. A map guarded by an RWMutex is simpler in code, probably more performant for simple access patterns, simpler operationally and effecti

Their fraud prevention is practically non existent and they won't lift a finger to help you. I recently had to layer minFraud on top of Stripe because so many (very obviously) stolen cards were being let through.

I'm one of the developers of that paid plugin. We developed it primarily for my day job (as a web host, SSL is one of the worst support burdens for us), but it's been really successful for other hosts as well. The situation certai

You will run into rate and other kind of limits if you issue many names for a single TLD+1 name. Constantly ran into this while developing a plugin for cPanel.

See other comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11116439 Potentially, Apple cannot circumvent their own protections on some models (in software anyway), and could in others.

That seems ... brave? I have used Alpine a few times in Docker images and it's fantastic, but we did run into incompatibilities due to musl.
