SNI doesn't work in practice
A while back I talked about why SSL and name-based virtual hosts don'tget along , and a commentator pointed me at the 'ServerName Indication' (SNI) SSL extension to deal with this. The approachSNI takes is for the client to send the server name(s) it wants to talkto as part of the initial handshake; a SNI-aware server can use this topick the right server certificate right away.
(The whole thing is described in RFC 4366 and
Please don't make me pick an account name
I just got through registering with yet another website. It was a pain,because they made me pick an account name.
There's two problems with account names. First, they matter becausethey're public identities; they say something about you to onlookers,so you care what your account name is. Second, at least for me, they'rehard to come up with.
My first and second choices are almost always taken; three letter namesusually go fast, if the system even allows them
Kept in the Dark
Over the last six months, dark chocolate hit the headlines of at least two top medical journals (including the Journal of the American Medical Association and Circulation ); researchers have shown that eating dark chocolate can improve our blood vessels and lower our blood pressure, by virtue of its flavanol content. Surely this good news is fantastic if you - like my wife - happen to be a lover of dark chocolate. That
Why I am not entirely fond of Solaris 10 x86's boot archive
I am not a fan of initial ramdisks (initrds in Linux jargon), but eversince I discovered Solaris 10's version of the concept I've thought itwas the most sensible approach to the whole issue.

(The other Linux initrd problem is where the kernel version doesn'tmatch the version of modules in the initrd;

Two problems with Python's file iterators
Modern versions of Python let you process each line in a file in asimple way, with just ' for line in fp: .. ', replacing either manual while loops with .readline() or the memory inefficiency of letting .readlines() pull the entire thing into memory. But there's twobugs, both of which can be illustrated by running a 'pycat' program:
import sysfor line in sys.stdin: sys.stdout.write(line)
If you run this without standard
