It’s very good. As are the following sequels: 2061 and 3001. But then again Clarke Is one of my favorite golden age authors. I also highly recommend the Rama series: Rendezvous with Rama, Rama II, The Garden of Rama, Rama Revealed. Gentry Lee wrote two more in the same universe but I haven’t read them: Bright Messengers and Double Full Moon Night

I wanna land on Europa. Because I was told not to.

All these worlds are yours except Europa. Attempt no landing there.

💯

No they aren’t. These two shows are about as close as Gilligan’s Island and Lost. Both shows are about a group of people lost an island but that’s about it. Same here.

Pretty sure I’ve seen that Farming While Beige guy on YouTube do both in a video.

Beans and powdered milk are important.

It’s quite terrible OpenAI has a CEO named Sham Cultman

That’s really not a bad analogy. I may steal that.

The problem with all of this is that nobody understands how the code actually works anymore. Yeah the focus has shifted more toward design which may not be a bad thing but the underlying functionality is just totally not understood.

Sam Altman is a terrible utilization of scarce resources.

The only real thing Elon is is a douche.

I’m a borderline fanboy but this was damn funny.

This is what I was told as well.

I am… well sorta. My team has to deal with the cleanup and repercussions at least. Let’s just say this week was not fun. At all.

In addition to the eMudhra certs and the php issue, there were also issues with python, Oracle, Java, and node.js. The certs and php were definitely the highest profile. They shut down incoming traffic to university web servers for the php one. The certs would have been more of a problem if we had extremely short expiration times

oops…. 😅

I’m not going to do anything at an Airbnb that I wouldn’t do at an actual bend and breakfast or normal hotel room.

These owners are making money off of me. I’m not doing their damn chores for them. “Protecting your investments“ does not include taking out the fucking trash and stripping the bed.

100% recommend tailscale. I have it set up so that IPs from three different data centers for work and my home are all routed properly, so I never have to do anything special to connect to anything. It’s like super simple and amazing.

You make some good arguments so I’m not attacking you at all, just my thoughts on your points. These short renewal times are getting to the point of ridiculousness and creating another point of failure with little time to do anything about it. I find these super short certs less than useful, create many more possible problems, and not really necessary except for a small set of circumstances. And I have been in IT as a web dev/sys admin/systems architect for over 30 years now.

• If a private key leaks you’ve likely done something wrong. Practice better key management and don’t be stupid
• Updating certs to keep up with new crypto standards is useless. For one they don’t change that often and if there is a pressing reason you can’t update earlier.
• Yes the processes have to be automated which is not a bad idea at all. But you are completely relying on the service to not be down and that something on your end hasn’t also broken. Anybody that hasn’t ever been a sys admin has had several automated process die for no apparent reason.
• This could actually be an issue but totally out of your control. This is only relevant if you domain hop frequently and if your that worried about security, you aren’t doing that.

One step closer to single use certificates. Great…

Likely true.
