For a large enterprise deployment of LDAP I used OpenLDAP over 389DS/RHDS/FreeIPA because it was straight-forward and solved the problems of a multi-master and slave-to-each-master architecture well. The initial deployment used Su

I've been thinking about building this for Tcl. Tcl has been available in the browser in various forms for decades, but one thing that makes Tcl uniquely suited to a web application style development is its threading model. In Tcl, y

You might like AppFS, it solves the packaging problem. It doesn't include sandboxing, but that's a separate system that could be built on top. https://AppFS.rkeene.org/

One way to solve it is to look for TCP resends, over a diverse set of connections, and decrease the apparent line speed if there are "too many". The bloglog entry I posted earlier [0] goes over this. [0] https://rkeene

I'm a developer on one of these projects (Nano). I normally refrain from posting about it on Hacker News, since it's almost never actually on-topic, but if there are any questions I am happy to answer them.

Cookies were never the only way to do this. Before cookies became popular having the ability to create a session was still possible. The primary method of doing this was similar to cookies, have a sessionId parameter to your query. There

I previously worked on a similar (non-Google) product that was similar -- it was an "On-Premise Cloud" [0], where the cloud provider managed and owned all the hardware and software, and the customer created workloads on it, and th

For what it's worth, this is how Tcl self-contained executables work [0], since Tcl already has a virtual filesystem mechanism. [0] https://www.tcl.tk/starkits/

I think that very little software is hurt by supporting multiple platforms -- usually the software benefits from exposure to a different set of assumptions and can be made more robust for when the preferred set of systems changes in the fut

Simple Makefiles almost never work for portable software that needs to interface with a system. There is a reason GNU autoconf was created -- it solves a real problem. Different kinds of systems are different in a LOT of ways. Almost all

Tcl is very easy to embed into your application. Tcl has a very simple syntax (with just 13 syntax rules). Tcl is very portable. Tcl supports threads and threading using the apartment threading model, where threads generate messages to s

Native emoji support, pretty front-ends, and clear product direction are possibilities on-top of IRC (or XMPP) since their absence isn't a core part of IRC (or XMPP) -- it's just not a good way to make a profit it if you don'

But it's not any less centralized, which I think was the complaint, not that it was popular even though this was mentioned.

OpenSSH supports, at the very least, PKCS#11 modules out of the box these days, which can be used with hardware security modules.

It's waiting, the "tty" command which is invoked a "a.out" causes the tty to receive the sequence of characters specified -- in this case "id\n". The vulnerability here is that if, as one user, you switch

The digital currency project I'm involved in also has a strong user base in Venezuela. From what I understand, the biggest relative advancements can be made there if individuals or organizations are empowered to participate (e.g. in a

I think it's a good language. It has simple syntax (only 13 syntax rules), great documentation for the API, the language, core commands, and all the packages shipped with the core release. It's very flexible so it can be used in
