On the other hand, this isn't the first time that someone has arrived in Australia with a visa, been taken aside at the airport, questioned by immigration officials, and told to leave the country. The usual reason it happens is when the immigration officials suspect that the person told some some fibs on their visa application. To my ears, "failed to provide adequate documentation" sounds very much like a euphemism for "told us a pack of porkies." This would explain the confusion over what the Immigration Department and the Victorian Government discussed after he arrived, and the Victorian Government's rush to distance themselves from him after that discussion.
Gradual Change Blindness [video]
A wildcard is a name consisting of a single asterisk (matching any label) instead of the first label of a DNS name inside an eTLD+1. [Historically some other wildcards existed but they're prohibited today]

But SANs are just names (that's even what it stands for, "Subject Alternative Name" the word alternative is because this is for X.509 which is part of the X.500 directory system, in which names are part of the X.500 hierarchy, while these names are from the Internet's naming systems DNS and IP addresses which could be seen as an alternative to that hierarchy)

So in changing both the names, and the keys, you're just getting a completely different certificate, maybe the pricing is different for you than purchasing more certificates, but these certificates aren't in any technical sense related to the other certificate.

It's a problem to use nomenclature that's completely wrong in a technical discussion like this. If you call the even numbers "prime" you shouldn't be surprised at the reaction when you claim "half the natural numbers are prime" in a thread about number theory.

[Edited to fix eTLD to eTLD+1 obviously we can't have people issuing wildcards directly inside an eTLD]

> A capable dedicated server with 2 TB of disk and 1 Gbps unlimited bandwidth will run about $30 in a major European metro, maybe double that for the US.

Not even close to comparable. I think you're ignoring all of the functions they're paying for. They're not just hosting a few files. Also, your "worst case" is literally the most optimistic best case for a standalone single server, which completely disregards any redundancy and assumes that the $30/month server is truly unlimited/unmetered in every way. That's not a good assumption.

Cloudflare is a global CDN that will be fast for everyone regardless of location and will soak up bursts of traffic with ease. It's also fast in a location-independent way, which won't be true for a single server in a single datacenter somewhere.

Finally, the amount of effort it takes to do this with Cloudflare is trivial. The amount of effort it would take to maintain and optimize a standalone solution is not negligible.

Cloudflare seems like a very good deal to me, unless you value your time at $0 and you have access to these truly unlimited, high-performance $30/month servers.

As I wrote a month ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29378633#29385866):

The problem for Slack was not caused by DNSSEC directly. It was caused by:

1. A bug in Route 53 which caused wildcard record not to work with DNSSEC signing. Anyone not using Route 53 would not have had any problems with DNSSEC.

2. Slack decided to revert the DNSSEC rollout, but botched the process badly, effectively locking themselves in the trunk and throwing away the key. If they hadn’t tried to revert the DNSSEC rollout, or if they had been a bit more deliberate and careful while doing it, this would not have happened.

(Also, except for DNSSEC solving the obvious problem of not having any way to authenticate DNS responses, you also can’t use newer e-mail security standards like DANE without DNSSEC. MTA-STS is an obvious ugly hack, requiring a web server to run an e-mail server.)

> Why would people have put off switching jobs until November 2021? Covid has been about the same in 95% of America since June 2020.

I put off looking for a new job at first because I was worried about a Covid-induced major economic downturn. I didn't want to be the new person when my employer is figuring out who to fire[1]. I only pulled the trigger when the numbers rebounded (and the downturn wasn't a big as I feared, consumer spending was really strong).

USSR had a nationalist component to it from Stalin onwards (see e.g. https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/stalin/works/1945...). It is that part that the modern ideologues tap into, blending it with similar stuff from the Imperial Russia period.
The most engaged discussions happened when we had a huge wall that the team (devs+PO) had filled over time with many post-its to concretize the user story map. We would sit together on couch and look at the story map and update it together, noting where we find new unknown requirements, where we did not finish a feature, where bugs were found, etcs.

In terms of estimation we ran fast-estinmation games. Time boxed to 15min we meet after lunch break and do the following:

We have post-its on the wall indicating columns for the story points. We have a stack of print outs of the tickets to estimate. (Sometimes we spend 10min in the beginning and read all tickets) The game goes like this:

1. First dev picks a ticket, reads out the short summary of the issue and files it under one SP column.

2. Next dev can either pick a new ticket of the stack and place it on the wall OR can move an existing ticket into another column.

3. Rinse repeat until the stack is empty and no more tickets are moved between the columns.

If a ticket has been moved more than three times it gets flagged and set a side to be discussed in more detail in a separate session.

This is really a fast way to get rough estimate (which is really all you need) and it keeps every dev active.

AVOID meetings where everybody sits around the table and the scrum master has an excel sheet or JIRA open on the screen and tries to fill out fields with the estimates.

AVOID discussions if a ticket is a 2 or 3 or 5 or 8. Pick one and move on. Do discuss when one is 2 and the other is 8.

AVOID having long meetings where you do all things together (prio, clarify, estimate). Instead do a fast estimation first, even with some details missing, but with a rough understanding what is wanted in the tickets. With these estimates the PO can do the Prio (business value vs effort). Then you know what to work on next. For those tickets do the clarification and technical detail discussions inside small groups of the dev team.

AVOID forcing every team member into these meetings. Not all have to be present to do a fast estimation session or any other SCRUM artifact. Some people feel more owner ship for a feature/product other just want to know which tickets they can crush next.
I always tell my team, if anyone feels

- he cannot contribute to a meeting,

- the agenda is not relevant/interesting for her/his current work

- he/her trusts the group to come to a sensible decision without her input.

- other urgent work needs to be done

- is in a state of coding flow

Then don't join the meeting. It is also totally fine to leave in the middle of a meeting when you do not get sometime out of it. Encourage your team to do that. It reduces frustrations a lot.

The bulk of the data transferring is static files because they're hosting large assets, but the rest of the article is about their API, database, etc.

A single server in a single datacenter isn't comparable to a global CDN. They made it clear in the article that they value global latency, and they're willing to pay more for it.

Every company over a certain size will have stack ranking or something like it. Division leaders and VPs need an available knife to stick in the backs of their rivals. If stack ranking or URA doesn't exist, then they'll use a down quarter to create it, ("With the economy the way it is, we have to do some belt-tightening") then wield it to destroy their enemies.

If all the VPs are cheerful, happy, nice guys, then someone will emerge from the lower ranks to overthrow the weakest member. From there, the bloodbath begins.

> Wine was originally released in 1993. You're talking about a period 7 years into it's development.

So? Darling is 9 years into its[1] development and hasn't really reached the maturity that Wine had after 7 years of development.

If memory serves me correctly[2], I'm quite sure that I played one or two Directx games on Linux using Wine in Dec-1998 - that's 5 years of development.

Fair enough, most of the games/apps did not run (Dune 2k was listed as "working" so I ran out and bought a copy only to find that it got no further than the game menu screen) but it ran more Windowed programs and full-screen games back then than Darling does now, so I don't think that I am performing an unfair comparison in that regard.

It might be that there is just not enough contributors to Darling to proceed at the pace that Wine did.

Simple, most police forces don’t have the skills or the interest in pursuing these types of crime. The lack of physical theft or injury, and the requirement to chase individuals by requesting digital evidence from banks etc, plus the small value of each individual crime (probably only $20), even if the aggregate amount stolen is large, and finally the fact the criminal is probably out of their physical jurisdiction, means police just don’t care.

As a result, if you’re stealing funds in a purely digital fashion, you can generally expect to be able to steal millions before anyone investigates you. You need to operating at a level where the FBI or, more likely, Secret Service takes an interest. QR codes on parking signs just doesn’t cut it.

Hrm. Sounds like you want it to work like today's internet, with today's internet services.

You're using radios, what's your traffic shaping look like UDP vs TCP? I know from experience that media devices spam the crap out of wifi (weird stuff too, like multicast MAC addresses). A common scenario is a TCP channel for control, and an accompanying UDP spew for the actual content.

DNS resolution according to the standards which were promulgated in the 1980s uses UDP, unless a (UDP) reply indicates that the request should be retried with TCP: there is no use of TCP, as in there is no "and if all else fails, retry with TCP".

For media, this provides a first mover advantage: whomever resolves their service and starts streaming first attenuates DNS resolution for the latecomers. I actually wrote about this on HN and wrote a demo TCP-only forwarder (which also conveniently does DoT) https://github.com/m3047/tcp_only_forwarder but nobody was very interested.

Point being, if DNS resolution is failing or slow and you can't / won't do traffic shaping you might want to force DNS over TCP / TLS.
