Yes, there is vhost negotiation happening in TLS before session is setup, and the webserver selects the apropriate certificate. The loss of privacy is minimal, since without this system you would be forced to use one IP per TLS host (or dis

I think it would be acceptable if it's automated at the DNS level. You need to have a trust hierarchy anyway to resolve a name, so you can piggyback the same trust hierarchy to encrypt and secure all communications. In the fee paid for

It's only a matter of time until captive WiFi networks will force you to install their root certificate or app if you want to use their services.

To achieve the goals we’d set, we had to go beyond using BGP as a mere routing protocol. Uh-oh.

The whole blog post seemed like a click and bait to me. Nothing is "explained" other than what we knew already, that some unlucky SOB shot themselves in the head with a BGP shotgun. I understand, they have no way of knowing what h

Essentially, they locked themselves out with an uninspired command line at the exact moment the datacenter was being hijacked by ape-people. Yup, corporate comms won't love these status updates.

I had problems with my internet connection and loaded my ISPs site. Strangely, my bill was paid. Even stranger, some sites load while others do not. Then it hit me: I am so dependent on Facebook owned properties (Whatsapp, Facebook, insta)

People in your social bubble clearly don't care too much about major personal events, but do care about politics. It's what your friends have in common, and what Facebook will deem important. You are just a statistical anomaly.

Scalpers perform a social service by rationing demand and ensuring availability. They don't eat the whole consumer surplus, rather, they must compete amongst themselves and the price you pay is the amount that makes client N+1 walk awa

But if they had paid him to create completely new art, it wouldn't have been an authentic performance of "Take the money and run", but a mere simulacrum. The breach of contract is the artwork.

You could reserve, say, 46 bits for heap and 46 for stack, 70 terabytes each ought to be enough for anybody . Then start allocating thread stack in successive halvings: 2 threads get 35TB each, 65536 threads get 1GB each etc. Effectively,

Seems like a moot point on any 64 bit platform, where you can effectively reserve GBytes of virtual memory for each of thousands of threads, and page in physical memory as required. It's the only sane interpretation I can give to a sta

When you switch a 11 year ICE car with an electric, yes, you would generate a 11 year-old ICE car. If priced low enough, somebody will pick it up and use it for a few years, since the purchase price, compared to a new electric car, is lower

You should take that kWh/kg figure with a kg of salt. You need a heavy COPV tank to store hydrogen under pressure, a 100 kg tank might store only a few kg of fuel, take 400 liter to do so, and be comparable with a 30l conventional fue

No, enough with this nonsense. Capturing, liquefying and transforming CO2 into fuel requires energy - due to thermodynamic limits, much more energy than what the fuel can give back. You then take that fuel, and... burn it into 25% efficient

That doesn't really work in practice. All it does is raise the price of black market sims by a fixed, low dollar amount, that is irrelevant for criminal operations willing to spend thousands of dollars for secure coms. Think about it:
