Having the root CA's private key doesn't give them access to the end entity's private keys. When you ask a CA for a cert, you only provide them with your public key (in the form of a CSR) for them to sign. The CSR does not contain the private key.


But getting an employee to hand over the private key and giving him a gag order afterwards is an option of course.

Google is using it, a few other sites, too, though they are in the minority. OpenSSL supports it since version 1.0.0 that was released in March 2010.


True, but they would have to do this for every single web server they would want to collect information from. Not impossible, but it'd be a lot of work.


Nice service. When I'm coding Trance, mainly Armin van Buuren, works best for me.


Agreed and same. I have a playlist on my phone for just trance which gets listened to whenever I'm working or even exercising.

I noticed something really interesting - your pace adjusts to the beat. For example, I took my headphones off to take a call and I was in awe at the speed of the beat, which only 2 minutes ago sounded fairly regular and not as fast.


Agreed.

When I was working for my math exams, having to learn dozens of demonstrations by heart, I have a playlist composed of 6 hours of remixes of satisfaction, by Benni Benassi. Amazing how 6 hours can look like 30 minutes when you listen to the same, repititive music :).


Yup, trance and house for me, definitely. Trance and house are like productivity crack. I listen to trance when I'm working and house when I'm working out.


Yep, Trance works for me as well. I use di.fm/trance.


Same here, house is nice as well. You can fine a lot of 2 hours mixes on soundcloud as well as a state of trance on spotify


They're doing very well with testicular cancer treatment. About 90% are cured regardless of stage. Treatment of other cancers hasn't progressed as well unfortunately.


I'd add: check your SSL certificate installation using a tool like this: http://certlogik.com/ssl-checker/


Cool, I haven't seen that one before. I also like this one: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/


I enjoyed this documentary -

Ramanujan: Letters from an Indian Clerk: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OARGZ1xXCxs


I agree; I setup a new Linode with Ubuntu a couple of days ago and the whole process was smooth and enjoyable. The documentation is well laid out and super easy to follow.


I noticed the Django Boilerplate link seems to be dead. Great list. Thanks.


Good catch, looks like the gentleman decided to remove the repo.


Looks like the offer has now ended. I'm seeing the US version for $4.79 and the UK version is £3.02.


True. It was $0 for me yesterday but not today. This reinforces my unhealthy belief that I must check my news feeds constantly throughout the day, everyday, nonstop, lest I miss out on... saving $5. :)


from the forum - "If you have problems with "Aircraft View" or API-key, make sure to install latest version of Google Earth plugin-in http://www.google.com/earth/explore/products/plugin.html and remove your ad-blocker."

I logged in to google earth, paused ad blocker and cockpit view is now working for me.
