I'd say this has been the case for a minimum of the past 20 years, at least in the US.

Here's a screenshot from an early mac control panel. Notice the use of the word "Font" for typeface.

You're decades late with this observation. It happened when the first GUI word processors labeled the setting as "font". Users are not typography experts and will call it as the software does.
Act locally. Do you live in Spain? Talk to your legislators about passing strong net neutrality laws like the Netherlands. You have weak net neutrality from the EU, but you can do better.

Would things like LWT or async help you in any way?
Minor nitpick regarding the "except for certificate-pinned websites" part:

HPKP does not validate pins if they resolve to a user-installed trust anchor like an intranet CA. The RFC [1] leaves behavior undefined (see Section 2.4), and I'm not aware of any popular implementation that would honor the pin in case of a user-installed certificate.

This can be incredibly frustrating if you're trying to protect against MITM attacks; but at the same time, I can follow the browser developers' line of thought that goes "if we were to enforce it, users would just jump ship to the next available browser".

> Could and might are often, but not always, interchangeable. He might have come / studied = 'We don’t know whether has come / studied or not', but you could substitute could. If you want to indicate ability or permission, however, you need He could have come / studied = ‘He had the ability to come / study.'

> It's possible that he came from a different culture would be used in considering a historical figure who didn’t seem to fit into his environment. If you were talking about a current situation, you’d say It's possible that he comes from a different culture. It’s hard to think of any circumstances in which It's possible that he come from a different culture would be used, even if you regard ‘come’ as subjunctive.

> English modal verbs are both important and subtle. You're unlikely to gain a full understanding of their use in exchanges such as this and if, as I assume, Noah, you are a non-native speaker of English you really need the help of a qualified English teacher.

Unfortunately, if the owner of the content is not interested in keeping this site up, the content will be lost sooner or later anyways. He probably also does not bother to install security updates and he will most likely stop paying the bills at some point (domain name, hosting server, etc).

Installing LetsEncrypt is not much work and he might be motivated if a lot of people ask him. If he is really not interested, it is probably best to archive the website to a real archive and hope they make sure they content remains available. Unfortunately this also means that the archive will no longer be found on google or most other search engines. It is really a shame that there is no work on google's side to make sure archived content can be found among other search results.

Ask HN: Do you use an app for far out reminders?
I am just curious if you use an app or calendar for reminders where you have to do something once or twice a year?

I for some reason I do not put these things on a calendar, and I fail to do them on time.

One example is calling the HVAC service company to come out and do the bi-annual inspection of the system.

By the time I do get around to calling them, they are booked out several weeks.

I'm sorry, but what you are describing seems, if not childish, incredibly naïve. It presumes a scenario where there is always ample access to opportunity without facing sexual harassment.
You can get a certificate for a local IP address. If you own foo.com, you can get a cert for local.foo.com from letsencrypt that points to 192.168.1.5. Obviously you can't use HTTP verification, but you can use DNS verification, point _acme-challenge.local.foo.com to a public server and run certsling or another acme client on that server.
I think "font" is the right term here. They talk about it being "available to download" and "available as part of a Windows pre-release", all of which make more sense when talking about the font (calibri.ttf) rather than the typeface, inasmuch as it one can meaningfully distinguish the two: I'm not aware of any other implementations of Calibri (e.g. OTF), but I'm happy to be corrected.
Thanks, I'll try that. I'm going to be doing a lot of remapping I can tell. The default layout makes some strange choices to me, like ctrl-alt-del difficulty.

> Net neutrality leaves those decisions up to, other, big players like large (tier 1) ISPs, cloud providers and big services instead of consumer ISPs.

Without net neutrality, the decisions are still up to tier 1 ISPs, cloud providers and big services. You just have to deal with one more type of decision-maker (consumer ISP) in addition to, not instead of, all of the above.

Come to think of it, I wonder how those deals will play out when net neutrality is gone. ISPs probably don't care enough to discriminate against individual domain names or small IP blocks, and most developers don't want to have to care about such things, either. So the prioritization deals will most likely be between large companies. Something like, host with Linode if you want fast connections to Comcast users, and host with DigitalOcean if you want priority access to Verizon users. AWS might start offering two types of elastic IPs, one that gets prioritized with all major ISPs and one that doens't, with different transfer rates.

Open XML formats (.docx, etc) came with Office 2003.

From what I remember, the EU wanted to standardize an open document format, and had their eye set on OO ODF, as the most mature of those at the time. Microsoft put out their OXML format, gave out free patent grants, lobbied hard, and managed to get it into ISO.

If you want some nightmares though, open an office XML file in a text editor some day.
It is, but many of the XML values and attributes are just dumps of bitfields and identifiers that are structured exactly as they are in memory. In other words, the XML format was mostly a PR move to stave off accusations of not being "open" enough, and the people who implement support for the new format still have to reverse-engineer a bunch of Office-specific binary nonsense.
Look at your computer. How much of the software and services you use is based in the US? Don't rank by variety. Rank by minutes engaged each day.

The NoFail programming language
It's fitting that the document has been issued by the NHS. In the UK it's used so much that it doesn't mean anything anymore. It's just a way to get away with bad behaviour or incompetence. One fun example is https://www.sorryfortheinconvenience.co.uk/tfl
Several thoughts, somewhat unsorted:

- There could be an underlying medical problem. Mild depression often has low willpower as the most noticeable effect. If it's not too much of a hassle, maybe get your thyroid checked. And whatever works for depression should usually work for your problem as well, exercise unfortunately being the most effective

- If what you're doing really doesn't interest you, it doesn't make much sense to see a pathology where everything is working as intended. Try something new (as a hobby maybe) that requires similar levels of engagement, and see if the problem persists. If not, it's time for tough decisions.

- There's a theory that willpower works much like a muscle. There's a book about that phenomenon, but it really doesn't have much more content than the last sentence. It's one of those results that I don't completely trust, but trying it out doesn't cost much: do anything that requires willpower regularly, and see if you improve. The examples from the book were really small interventions, such as brushing your teeth with the non-dominant hand. After three weeks or so, people were significantly more likely to successfully stop smoking, compared to the control group. That's a rather big effect.

- Try reducing your work hours. Being "always on" just drains your resources. Start with restricting your daily work hours to something like 3h or even less, and only expand again if you're productive in those hours.

- Somehow get your hands on ADHD meds (or, you know, the generic alternatives that fuel the bitcoin boom). You'll be as focussed as you ever wanted to be, and even a one-time experience can be helpful, by reminding you what it actually feels like to be "in the zone".

I second the suggestion for DeepWork. The bit on "Embracing Boredom" is a really good way to exercise that muscle. Also, think deeply about the axiom "think more, type less." Ideally you're programming to create long-ish term solutions. Programming for the flow or gratification does not lend itself well to that. On the other hand, if you're in competitive programming, think about the gratification you can get by writing clean AND fast code.

That's right. Cloudflare doesn't try to lock people in with artificial constraints. Use Let's Encrypt for your origin. Very soon we hope to support Let's Encrypt completely for our main certs (once they have wildcard support).
Yes, for now I'm relying on mercury to do the job. I tried out some readability packages, and they worked pretty well, so I think I'm going to replace the dependency on mercury with a built-in readability package pretty soon.

GiveCampus (YC S15) hiring engineers passionate about education in DC and SF
We are GiveCampus, and we build fundraising software for educational institutions. Our goal is to build innovative software so schools can raise money, and make it cheaper and more accessible for everyone. 25 of the top 50 colleges in the US already use GiveCampus, and we are growing faster than we can currently build!

Our engineering team is currently still small, and we're looking to add to the team to keep up with our continued growth.

Our ideal candidate:

- working professionally for 2+ years. Not currently hiring fresh bootcamp grads.

Front-End

- great front end chops, but can still manage some of the backend functionality as well.

- eye for clean design (though not necessarily need to be a designer), and be able to implement and iterate quickly.

Full-Stack

- can do css down to database queries, and be comfortable with everything in between.

- enjoy owning a feature or product, from idea to deployment, and support/iterating in the hands of users.

Our stack is Ruby on Rails, with mostly vanilla JS on the front end, and we're moving toward React where appropriate.

Michael Seibel, CEO of YC, expects us to be a household name in the next few years: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13896296. We were also covered by the Washington Post last year (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/04/19/colleges-are-going-online-to-crowdsource-donations-and-theyre-raising-millions/), and have more than quadrupled the number of schools using our software since it was published.

Shoot us a message at careers@givecampus.com with your github and a little about why you're interested in GiveCampus!

There's also a niche market for more complex certificate solutions, like the one we saw stackoverflow required: https://nickcraver.com/blog/2013/04/23/stackoverflow-com-the...

It's just that those solutions require actual work and capable customer support, and I don't think that's a business Symantec wants to be in.

Still I would hope that their certificate business is taken over by someone serious about SSL/TLS/certificates. I would have for Let's Encrypt to become a monopoly.
It's possible to purchase certs signed by pre-trusted CAs extremely cheaply ($9/year/name) that can then be used on internal services. This is not a difficult problem to solve.
So you can tell me why it isn't, then? I don't see WPF being as clean as React is. It uses tons of magic strings in XAML files. JSX properties are expressions and thus can be statically typed. QML is almost the same, just a little different syntax, but I don't see any difference that would make it cleaner than React.

You can have a single cert with all 135 sites' domain names in it. A wildcard cert may be preferable if the list of domain names frequently changes.
Everybody wants to own the customer. It's true everywhere in the value chain, in every value chain. That's why they need you to install their app.
If your router or scanner is to be accessible over the network then it needs its own name and it needs to be able to certify that that's its name. Anything else is just too dangerous. A user expects addresses they enter into the browser to mean the same thing on any connection; having a few "magic" addresses that go one place on one network and another place on another network is a recipe for users getting hacked.

For the consumer use case, maybe the router gets a unique default address in the manufacturer's namespace (router12345.linksys.com) and ships with a certificate for that name and that name printed on the box, just like we do for the admin password. Since it's a router it's probably running the DNS for your network (at least in the consumer use case) so it can route requests for itself correctly. For scanners or similar, the router would need to update its DNS when the scanner joins the router's network - a lot of routers already do this within the local domain based on DHCP registrations, so this ought to be simple if it's not already done. Crucially this part isn't security-critical - if you try to print a confidential document on your network printer while you're on your neighbour's wifi, the worst their router can do is not route you, because an evil endpoint won't have your printer's certificate.

Saying sorry has always been meaningless tokenism to me. We are what we do, and not what we say.

However -

An apology does indicate that the person saying sorry is able to admit to mistakes. This in turn shows an ability to learn, to try new things, and an open mind. At least more so than one who refuses to apologise under any circumstance.
