To be clear, the failure here is not that DigiCert issued for .arpa, which is not forbidden, but that they gave the reporter, Cynthia Revström, the ability to issue for all of in-addr.arpa even though she had only demonstrated control over 5.168.110.79.in-addr.arpa. This vulnerability could have applied to regular non-arpa domains too; e.g. someone with control over example.github.io might have been able to get a certificate for any github.io domain.

However, since issuing for .arpa is weird (and maybe should be forbidden), the discussion got sidetracked talking about .arpa issuance.

One approach would be to take the issue to individual school boards. I think it's probably initially easier to propagate prohibition of posting content of any current student as part of a school system's acceptable use policy to ever greater numbers of school systems than to go the law making route.

There is a difference between dealing with the state and making deals with other private citizens. I will clarify my position after a test I have to write now. Sorry about the crack hit quip. It felt cheap but I took it anyway -- should have explained it at least.

The dialogue in B5 seems like a dated screenwriting style because it is. Most of what's dated is the humor--the gags and character wisecracks fall into a set of 90's humorous screenwriting formulas, just as the wisecracks and gags in say, "Star Trek: Discovery" fall within today's set of humorous screenwriting formulas. (There are some humorous bits in B5 that are still funny, like the line where Londo calls Vir a "moon-faced assassin of joy", but most of these work because they sound like something the character would actually say and not just a cheap screenwriter joke formula.)

But some of the writing still holds up.

It's interesting that it's using Laurikari's algorithm- I looked at the 2000 paper years ago and could not get a working algorithm out of it. Eventually I found another way to do this that I use for JOE's regular expression library. So now I'm curious which one is faster...

https://sourceforge.net/p/joe-editor/mercurial/ci/default/tr...

It uses a variant a Thompson's matcher, see:

https://swtch.com/~rsc/regexp/regexp1.html

"However, Thompson-style algorithms can be adapted to track submatch boundaries without giving up efficient performance. The Eighth Edition Unix regexp(3) library implemented such an algorithm as early as 1985, though as explained below, it was not very widely used or even noticed. "

So in JOE's matcher, when simulating the NFA with the multithreaded machine, each succeeding thread will correspond to one of the sub-match possibilities. Augment this machine to keep the ones you want (the ones with the longest matching strings starting from the left usually).

Magento 1 End of Life – Upgrading to Magento 2
In my experience that only works if the judges aren't engineers, which granted, is more common than it should be.

When I worked a booth at a hackathon a few years ago, we had 5 Drones to give out to the 5 best uses of our API. We had a few takers, but all but one made a bullshit project using as many apis of other companies to hedge their bets and increase the prizes they could get, and a lot actually didn't really use our api (they made up data and said it came from ours). None of them had a deployed application, or much more than slides.

One team not only focused solely on our API, but bought a domain and deployed a working product. Using our actual data.

We ended up giving that team of 4 entry level engineers all 5 drones, because they're the only ones that deserved them. Helps that all our judges were engineers.

I'm on my HOA board, so yes, all of your objections appear to me as "I don't want to do anything at all". And comparing "talk to your 50 shared neighbors" to "organize an election with hundreds of millions of voters" is just off the charts hyperbole.
That's a useless list. To take the one example I happen to work for, yes NASA uses AWS, but not for anything terribly important. Without any evidence that one of the handful of groups on that list that have safety-critical infrastructure are running that infrastructure solely on AWS, I maintain my position that Lyft going offline would be a greater inconvenience to me.
Obviously they have no data, it's a hunch they have. This should be clear from how it's stated.

I guess I was thinking of an app that would, say, see I have a losing investment and recommend that I sell before EOY to offset some taxes.

Or put more money into my 401k if I hadn't maxed out by EOY if I was close to being dropped to a lower income bracket.
That's a fair point. I'm wondering, are there situations where the all-or-nothing investment in Erlang pays off?

Something I've noticed is that companies that adopt Erlang the language do tend to go for the whole hog. In that case they tend to build their whole infrastructure using it.

On the other hand, companies that are coming to the Erlang VM via Elixir often have existing infrastructure and applications written in another language (PHP, Ruby, etc.) and they're looking to get better scalability within a given application, while still leveraging their existing infrastructure.

Stop Taking Car Buying Advice from Professional Millionaires
It's not really same at all though and I think the article does a good job of illustrating how social media can coerce a normal kid into doing something that normally a bully would do without ever actually feeling like he did something wrong.

There is no "bully" moment, there's no confrontation of your perpetrator, it simply feels that everyone is against you. The enemy isn't a single person making you feel bad. It's everyone.

I know I didn't face the threat of that kind of stress at school. Embarrassing moments were allowed to pass in a few days and did become enshrined documentation attached to your identity.

It's a confusing title. It would be more clear as "The declension of the word "dog" in various languages".
Partly because Michael O'Hare needed to be swapped out at the end of season 1, but also partly because what ended up being the story of seasons 1-4 was supposed to be spread out over an entire franchise of series with two 5-year arcs each.

JMS supposedly had contingency plans for losing any of the actors, but O'Hare in particular was difficult because his character was supposed to be the central mythic figure. (This is why he shows up again later on as a guest star; one specific aspect of the character was already set up to the point that they couldn't work their way out of it easily.) Unfortunately, O'Hare had to leave the show for health reasons after the first season.
Voter turnout only goes over 50% for presidential elections. It isn't even that high for midterm federal elections, let alone local ones. A school bond failed in the next county last week because an overwhelming number of votes supported it - but they didn't have enough people vote to make it a legal quorum (or whatever it's called).

The connection is that they were both fighting against the British Empire at around the same time, and both had support from the French. Quote from the article:

> Allied with France, however, Haider held off the British advance for another two decades, dying in 1782, just a year before the US triumphed in its own rebellion against Britain.

> Haider and Washington never communicated directly with one another, but they fought against a common enemy, and shared a common ally. Like the Mysoreans, the American rebels were members of a global coalition funded by the French government, which saw both uprisings as a chance to humble Britain.
Wow, the bullies these days just mean-post on social media? In my day they'd pull knives on you.

IBM cloud is a joke. That's why I put it in there. The aforementioned executive was clearly not thinking.

There's nothing you've written that I disagree with. It's easy to do the math that shows where bare metal saves money inclusive of the labor costs. For some reason most everyone seems to fail at it. I could expound one why, but this:

>I remember how hard it was to hire senior operations people. There are not many of them, and there are not many of them at the level of being able to deliver something amazing. The ubiquity of the cloud has only made these kind of experts less common.

Those folks just don't exist. Building infra is more than just buying infra. It takes actual development, which is why I think so many fail at it.

Your anecdote about Dropbox is telling. They adopted cloud, and more importantly cloud methodologies and then went back to bare metal. There are others that have done the same. I recall a talk at an Openstack conference given by Verizon in which they described their approach. Developers begin in AWS, utilize a cloud-based approach, and then when cost concerns become an issue, they aim to offer similar services in-house on bare-metal.
How good is the quality?
> does anyone know of any TV series that had a firm, 5 (or multi-year) arc planned out in detail years before any filming began?

Game of Thrones, though adaptations where the source material is spread out over multiple seasons are probably cheating a bit.
Other than the logo on top, the menu, the footer, and your own text in the search bar, what content on YouTube would not be covered by that tag?
Outside of S3 I can't think of any services that AWS offers that are worth a damn.
They could also just rent dedicated bare metal servers on a month-to-month basis, getting whatever hardware specs they want so long as it's not overly exotic. Then they don't have to worry about anything at the data centre or hardware level.

Given that cloud costs easily 6-7x for the equivalent amount of hardware resources as a well priced dedicated server provider, you can just buy 2-3x the resources you need for extra scalability and not have to share those resources with anyone. Or if you are in the tiny minority of companies that really does have extremely erratic load requirements, you can put your base load on bare metal and your excess load on cloud.

I don't understand why people on HN always put forth a false dichotomy between cloud and running your own data centre when there's a plethora of different mixes of infrastructure and managed services that falls in between.
To be fair it was an art installation. It may seem whimsical but at the same time it was a juxta or urbanity (which is known to think of itself as divorced from the far flung hinterlands that feed it) and farm. Business and cultivation. Suits and overalls. I think it was a pretty cool installation. Not as flamboyant as that artist who circumscribed islets with pink plastic film[1], but to me it has more meaning.

Building Layouts Drive Social Interaction
Since we're doing Slavic languages, let's go with Serbian.

- dog = pas (we don't distinguish between "a dog" and "the dog")

- declensions (singular): pas, psa, psu, psa, psu, psom, psu

- declensions (plural): psi, pasa, psima, pse, psi, psima, psima

- but that's not all, the number can change the declension: 1 pas; 2, 3, 4 psa; 5+ pasa

It's my language and I love it, but the grammar is a nightmare. I think it might be one of the easiest languages to learn to read and write, but good luck learning what it all means ;)

I feel like my coding peak was at 35 and is slowly declining ever since.

I'm slowly getting better in dealing with people though.
My argument is that spending 10% of their revenue on cloud infra affects their unit economics sufficiently that they'll find it difficult to compete.

Perfectly willing to admit I'm wrong if and when that time comes. At this point, that's my theory.
