I think that seniority is closely correlated to understanding tradeoffs. Where a junior and a senior can make from time to time the same decision, how they do it is different. For …

Thanks for the explanation. To my understanding, that's only necessary when I actually use the certificate, not as the part of certificate validation. I assumed the validation woul…

Thanks. I'd actually prefer to by through Namecheap as well. I saw RapidSSL and PositiveSSL certs, but I thought they are not suitable if I want both w/ and w/o 'www' subdomain. So…

I want to secure a single site that redirects from bare domain to 'www' subdomain. I'm assuming I need a SSL certificate with 2 names: example.com and www.example.com. What CA and …

Beautifully written and expressing most of the concerns that bother me in today's world. If you liked the article, I'd also suggest [1] by moxie. I really liked how he dismantles t…

I've moved completely away from Google. DuckDuckGo for search, here.com for maps, fastmail.com for mail (using my domain, so I'm not locked in), Firefox as browser. It was not as h…

Seriously one of the worst posts I've seen on top page in a long while. Disclaimer: from here on I'll also be a bit opinionated, hardly can be worse than the post. And yes he did w…

I have the same experience. I find the interface just beautiful and pleasure to use. The same is true when using it from phone. One of the best tool-related decisions I ever did.

Tarsnap is really great service. It's obviously targeted at tech people, but if you are one, just check it out. I do not feel the need for any wrappers as the CLI is quite nice, bu…

Here's one absurd bug in Java that really surprised me: Math.abs(-2147483647); // 2147483647 Math.abs(-2147483648); // -2147483648 When you know this behavior, it's kinda obvious w…

To be fair Google is a great company. But because of some actions they have taken they are not so outstandingly appealing as they were few years ago. Of course that's natural given…

vimroom (mentioned in the article) is really great.

Thank you for this link. vim-wheel is just pure gold, I needed that for a long time...
