MinIO accepted contributions from people outside the company who did work on it for free, usually because they expected that minio would keep the software open source.

2 isn't quite the same as my idea, it uses a list of fingerprints for valid certs instead of a CA itself, but it is roughly equivalent.

I can think of a of other ways that client certificates could work, but they have problems too: 1. Use DANE to verify the client certificate. But that requires DNSSEC, which isn't widely used. Would probably require new implemntations

So that argues against including CAs that don't issue server authentication cerificates. That's somewhat reasonable, although it does put non-browser use cases in an awkward position, since there isn't currently a standard di

On Android the OS implementation of "push" notifications is pull/poll based as well. At some interval, the OS polls Google's servers to see if there are any messages available. Firebase essential acts as a message broke

Maybe those those things may be more important, depending on the office, but IME, that isn't what people usually mean when they say "office suite".

If you scroll a little further down, you'll see that it lists components of an office suite as: - a word processor - a spreadsheet application - presentation software This doesn't look like it has any of these

The things complained about in the article are not a minimal reflection of how computers work. Take the "wobbly types" for example. It would have been more "minimal" to have types tied directly to their sizes instead of

> in C it's hard to say reliably define this int is 64-bit wide That isn't really a problem any more (since c99). You can define it as uint64_t. But we have a ton of existing APIs that are defined using the wobbly types, so we&

The general idea is sound. The implementation less so.

FWIW, the crabi project within rust is trying to improve on some parts of it. But it is still built on (a subset of) the environments c ABI. And it doesn't fix all the problems.

That works, but it feels wasteful to needlessly copy it, and it is verbose.

Part of the value of the factbook is that it is kept up to date. If it is no longer published, the version on the Internet Archive will become out of date.

Sharding is often not easy. Depending on the application, it may add significant complexity to the application. For example, what do you do if you have data related to multiple customers? How do you handle customers of significantly differe

Or echo $NUM_PAGES | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages I've always found it odd that there isn't a standard command to write stdin to a file that doesn't also write it to stdout. Or that tee do

Which is why it isn't really fair to say "this is what people voted for." Just because people voted for a candidate doesn't mean they agree with everything that candidate does.

That doesn't change the fact that the majority of Americans didn't vote for Trump. In fact, the majority of people who did vote didn't vote for Trump. Yes, he won the "popular vote", but that just means he got mor

I didn't see anyone blaming non-voters. The argument is that a majority of Americans didn't vote for this, because most Americans didn't vote at all. (Also, of those that did vote, less than 50% voted for Trump).

It makes it inconvenient to do things like estimate how long it will take to transfer a 10GiB file. Both because of the the difference between G and Gi, and because one is in bytes and the other is in bits. There are probably cases where co

by thayne 8mo ago
And that is because some people didn't like that a kilobyte was 1024 bytes instead of 1000, so they started using 1000 instead, and then that created confusion, so then they made up new term "kibibyte" that used 1024, and now

My big problem with pre-commit is that it doesn't have any way for you to have your own commit hoos that run in addition to the hooks that are part of the repo, and the author of it is hostile to any suggestion of supporting that. Heav

From what I understand, LSP support for c# isn't very good, and is from third parties, not MS themselves, because they want you to us Visual Studio on Windows.

I have similar concerns about c# as I do about swift. I'm less concerned about go, because unlike swift and c# it was designed from the beginning to be cross-platform and if anything Linux is the best supported OS. But barely so. Also,
