Re:Show HN: I built a memory-safe web server in Rust

Until proven for many years, and a few CVEs later… I would be very concerned with logical errors and all non memory related bugs…

I actually think the old keyword is quite clever. I'm sure it could make sense in some places.

It's really bad when you need a tl:dr on a security vulnerabilities release, it was a lot more bugs than I expected, I wonder if GitHub enterprises is just as bad?
Re:Why You Should Never Use Google Authenticator Again
on Tuesday January 16, 2018 @05:17PM (#16163248)
If only there were a solution I could buy... ;) No, I do believe you should use Google Authenticator, it’s free, easy to implement and adds a lot of security over just passswords.

Does anyone know any company which are specialized in building cPanel plugins? Have you hired them, what was your experience?

on Tuesday January 09, 2018 @06:13PM (#16111068)
I would say it all depends on why the do it, if there is a clear motive (like if they depend on it...then it makes sense for me and them and builds trustworthiness). But just sponsor something out of the blue - no. I don’t believe in random goodness when money is involved.

I say go for it, if you are not a key employee (there is no risk imho), you may just be a better fit in their other company.
Re:Running 0 to 5K, took me 4 Years

Like it, as a runner and European citizen I always get confused if someone refers to American miles or not, but 5k is always 5000meters regardless? Do Americans who run ever talk about miles?

If you can, you should consider updating to 11.1 instead.
Re:NDJSON: newline-delimited JSON
on Tuesday September 05, 2017 @10:20AM (#15175418)
It's useful alright, however every time I'm reading records in a stream I prefer to have it prefixed with the record size in bytes.
However, having a new line delimiter is sure easier than trying to find the end of a JSON structure.
Re:Ask HN: Resources for building a programming language?
on Monday September 04, 2017 @06:59PM (#15171360)
I would suggest you focus a lot on the design, research the history and design of other languages. Try to understand how they evolved and try to figure out their bad decisions on the way.
Eg.
Pythons PEP, PHP’s RFC, Mailinglists
Building the language itself is the easy part...
Re:Why undefined behavior may call a never-called function
on Monday September 04, 2017 @06:52PM (#15171328)
I once wrote an optimizing brainfuck compiler, it ended up running the bf code (if no input) and just printing the output in a single instruction :P
Re:Why undefined behavior may call a never-called function
on Monday September 04, 2017 @06:47PM (#15171303)
I think this case shows one of the pitfalls of compiled languages. If it can’t be optimized at compile time we’re out of luck so we aim too far.
Re:Ask HN: What domain do you use for your docs site?
on Monday September 04, 2017 @06:15PM (#15171173)
I second that, it also allows moving and separation from different sites/publication systems (by DNS pointing). Also a valid concern: I seen main sites been redone/moved so many times while the docs stayed the same on its own subdomain...

Re:Lavabit Security Misconfiguration
on Thursday July 06, 2017 @05:03PM (#14713944)
It was unnecessary to split the protocol into two ports when STARTTLS came along shortly after. As for myself, I also thinks it's nice that you can partly identify the usage of a port by connecting to it.
Re:Lavabit Security Misconfiguration
on Thursday July 06, 2017 @03:37PM (#14713232)
I always favor STARTTLS in favor of implicit. I say so since implicit TLS on SMTP (465) is deprecated.
Re:Syria using 34 Blue Coat servers to spy on Internet users (2013)

Out of curiosity: How could Blue Coat had prevent this? There must surely been a middleman? We should probably not argue they should have a kill-switch in their product?
