The biggest problem with this is if the target URL doesn't load but also doesn't quickly error out, like e.g. many .gov sites in Europe (seems like they are just dropping traffic from non-US IPs). Now you can't load the page

"Figuring it out" doesn't help if it's encrypted with a key only Google holds or a reference to some database record that you don't have. In either case, the only way to resolve this is to ask Google, which means th

There is no alternative. Apple isn't going to let them build on top of iOS, and anything except those two is dead in the water because it'll never have users because it is missing a bunch of critical apps, and will never have thos

Ruby/RoR doesn't really solve the e.g. monitoring problem, does it? My goal is something that would work for startups that plan to grow beyond a single person/single server project. If you build the architecture for a too sma

This is a great idea and I wish it success. Self-hosting shouldn't be a nightmare of researching and setting up 20 different applications. Is there something similar in progress for a "tech company tech stack"? As in, rather

Generally, I've seen courts derive this kind of right from general rights like "the state cannot just arbitrarily kill or maim you", which (hopefully) are explicitly written down. So it doesn't feel that unreasonable to

You should interact with government sites more. I'm sure you'll love it when you finally found the time and motivation to do something about the bureaucratic task you've been procrastinating for weeks and then get told that t

I would be in the market for Europe-based static hosting and am glad that more European services are popping up, but this has one massive drawback: Unpredictable cost (unless you manually set a limit with support, then it presumably changes

No one will invest even after Android is closed. The Android/iPhone duopoly is nearly impossible to break because very few people want to carry two personal phones, and it takes only one app that they can't do without being only a

Even if it isn't an attack, you demonstrated how it could be one. The vulnerability is likely there and worth mitigating. Excellent investigation and write-up!
