Yesterday, I submitted a project to HN which ended up being ranked 6th for the day. My Django backend and database shared a single CPU. Check out how well it handled the load spike.

What browser extensions do you use? in c/[email protected]

  • uBlock Origin
  • NoScript
  • Bitwarden

I previously used Privacy Badger, but I block basically everything with NoScript anyway, so it was redundant. I also used HTTPS Everywhere but you can enable that in most (all?) browsers now anyway, so you don't need an extension any longer (the highest form of success for an extension). I also previously used LastPass, but I got out before they had their security issues, and importantly changed every password when I transitioned. On work computer I have the 1password extension.

Help! My opponent rearranged the infinite chess board to make a mate in ω⁴ moves where ω is is the smallest ordinal greater than the natural numbers. What do I do in this position? (i'm black) in c/[email protected]

Improving HTTPS on private networks in c/[email protected]

Yes, there's two approaches I'm using currently. When you register a subdomain you can choose either localhostcert.net or localcert.net. The former has an A record in the public DNS that points to 127.0.0.1. The latter has no public A records so you need to manage them yourself, possibly with a local DNS resolver like unbound.
