Ah, now I understand. That makes total sense. Thanks for your detailed explanation.

Okay, so let me make sure I understand it. You have your own personal key, and CA key. Your personal (private) key lives on your workstation, and CA key lives on RPi. There are some other machines that you want to SSH into. They trust CA pu

by xyzzyz 4y ago
So anyone on your LAN can visit the URL and download the CA private key? Isn’t it only marginally more secure than just keeping the private key on your workstation in the first place, and foregoing the entire rigamarole with certificates? I

That actually doesn’t answer my question (though the actual addressee answered it already quite satisfactorily). First, there is no such thing as CSR in context of ssh certificates: ssh certificates are not x.509 certificates (known for t

by xyzzyz 4y ago
How do you issue client certificates? Do you not worry that the private key needed to issue these can also leak just the same as your personal private key?

This is not a material distinction: for every pair (M, input) you can create a machine M’ which has no actual input and instead first writes down the input to M onto the empty tape, and then runs M. This technique practically allows you to

In fact, denying the courtesies and benefits to norm breakers is exactly how you improve society. That’s like raising a child: you won’t convince a toddler with a reasoned argument about empathy, the value of preserving shared norms, and

by xyzzyz 4y ago
The time tested way of improving society is widespread shaming and bottom up enforcement of norms. We don’t do that anymore, lest the liberties of the norm breakers are lost, and their feelings injured.

You seem to have noticed the part where the parent comment says “don’t regulate”, but missed the part where it says “if the market will naturally fix itself”. Please, read it again, so that you can respond to what it actually says, instead

You have an extremely simplistic view of civilizations that lasted longer than almost all the ones currently existing. Imagine someone in year 4000 dismissing the French peoples as a whole as “violent and bitter enemies of scientific truth”

Which are clearly false when applied to the actual topic of discussion, so why bring them up?

Ah yes, the US universities are well known to hire the wealthiest elites as researchers. Poor foreign grad students are virtually absent from US universities.

The “Protestant” Northern Europeans in colonial America were anything but homogenous. New England Puritans not only had laws requiring Quakers to stay away, they in fact whipped, mutiliated and even executed those that refused to do so. T

Ah, yes, sorry, I got confused by this thread. Yes, globes are great educational tool. I think it’s actually valuable to show all of globes, Mercator, and the weird equal area projections, just to teach about trade offs.

by xyzzyz 4y ago
Globes of size useful for navigation are too big to be convenient when actually navigating. You cannot flat pack globes. They’re just impractical for this purpose.

You’re missing the point completely. It’s not about law and regulation literally being append only, it’s rather about the number of laws and regulations consistently growing over time, with very little repeal of old regulation, which are
