I can only speak for myself, but I'm just glad you're still a member of these communities. Take care of yourself, and I look forward to many more years of learning from your code!

> Third is I feel a responsibility to my projects and users. I feel like this should be a bit of a two way street. Is there anything we can be doing for you? I see there's an option for GitHub sponsorship, would that still be your p

Couldn’t agree more — Much like running my own DNS or email server, I don’t think I’ll ever go back to running my own website directly on the internet. It’s just not worth the hassle. For stuff only I use, it sits behind my VPN. For anythin

I’m not sure you can really categorize rust as a high level language, unless you’re stating crypto primitives should only be written in assembly. EDIT: Given this attack was also applied to OpenSSL, amongst many others this high level langu

I will given Berlin credit here — after checking in to our accommodations (took a taxi from the airport), I poked a ticket machine, quickly saw the Union Jack flag and got the machine into English. Couple minutes later we had our 1 week pas

Yes. They own much of the infrastructure used by the project, and fund some of the people managing said infrastructure. In addition to the trademark.

I mean yes — that’s the point. If untrusted parties have access to your keys, it’s already game over. You’ve lost. Disabling them is the nicest thing an attacker can do for you.

Canadian but also lived in the US. Have not lived in the EU. For Canada, while geographically large population wise it’s very small compared to the US. The big Canadian banks are targeting a similar sized demographic to California. I’m less

In Canada, electric block heaters for the engine are fairly common as well: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_heater . Similar concept to fire under the engine, but a bit more modern

This isn’t entirely true fwiw. That assumes a constant load on the systems. If you start running into a capacity crunch on a given system, your best case is scale horizontally or vertically using established procedures. But if you hit a lim

Right, it really should say anchor cities and not capital IMO. Those may coincide sometimes, but not always.

No. In general, Canadians just lost access to the medical system. Surgeries delayed, family doctors switching to only telehealth. Even now, in Vancouver — for my family doctor it would be a two week wait for a 10 minute phone call, followed

Having dealt with most major Canadian ISPs and Comcast, I think the only Canadian ISP I would rank above them is Telus. Maybe Bell depending on the province.

Both Seattle, WA and Ottawa, ON built out dedicated BRT infrastructure that was later repurposed for light rail. So I wouldn’t say it’s always just a new coat of paint.

Totally agree. But to run with your frame of reference point if I may, it’s also important to look at those events from other’s POV. I’m a larger, older man. What I find mildly uncomfortable on a late night bus alone might feel absolutely d
