Because i decided that i don't want this functionality. That's it.

breton | 2 years ago | on: Considerations for a long-running Raspberry Pi

I agree with this completely. All my rpi failures were because of SD cards. I have 2 rpis, both boot and run from usb, both for several years now.

The good part of having the Congress in Leipzig was abundance of cheaper hotels. Hamburg is more expensive.

I have just tried it and it is a little disappointing. `mjml2json in browser` returns completely irrelevant results in the third link, that have 0 mentions of mjml or mjml2json.

How many is that in absolute numbers?

How can you trust they stay up when you are their customer and pay them?

breton | 3 years ago | on: French court: refusing to disclose mobile passcode to law enforcement is a crime

Thanks.

I raised the question, because i want to understand, how much police in France needs to do to issue an order to unlock a phone. It does not sound too bad to me, if they have to go through a judge and a hearing to issue the order.

breton | 3 years ago | on: French court: refusing to disclose mobile passcode to law enforcement is a crime

I am reading a bit more about this. In a similar case, where Fair Trials intervened, they made this submission: https://www.fairtrials.org/app/uploads/2022/03/FT-interventi... . In the submission there are these sentences:

> Law enforcement authorities may compel suspects to provide the passcode to their mobile device under threat of a legal sanction pursuant to Article 434-15-2 paragraph 1 of the French Criminal Code, [...]. The request must be sanctioned by a judicial authority.

What is this sanction by judicial authority? A court order? Can it be appealed against? Can i get a lawyer participate in the hearing for the sanction?

breton | 3 years ago | on: N8n is not open source and your project is gaslighting its users

Karl Fogel shows a good example how issues like this should be treated: https://github.com/SparkDevNetwork/Rock/issues/5068

Another thing that should not be forgotten is that bug reports are there to contribute to the software. Not for support requests, not for rants, not for personal attacks on the developers, and not to explain them how wrong they are. "This wording exposes you to a lawsuit/might be offensive to certain contributors/is off-putting" would be ok.

breton | 3 years ago | on: N8n is not open source and your project is gaslighting its users

The author of that bug report is active on this site and participated in the discussion of the topic - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21191676.

The tone of the bug report is unacceptable and enough to avoid any interaction with its author.

breton | 3 years ago | on: Show HN: Ory Kratos – Open-source identity server written in Go

> I guess I'm most confused about where the connection between Ory and the application server is.

There might be none. The response from an identity provider (Ory) is signed and encrypted, is given to the user who is being authenticated and then the user brings it to the application. The process usually happens via browser redirects, but can be more manual. The response contains information about who the user is, their identifiers and properties. It is totally possible to have a scenario where the application is air-gapped.

There might be some interaction if the application wants to enrich the passed response.

I cannot suggest any books, but you could search about SAML2, OpenID Connect (oidc), identity providers and service providers.

breton | 4 years ago | on: Paradise lost: The rise and ruin of Couchsurfing.com

The only time I touched cs was in 2014, when my wife suggested to find a place via it and registered a female profile. 100% of the profiles looking at her were male and like from a dating site ad. There also was an unwanted email spam about who she could stay with - also very dating-site-like. Airbnb felt way more friendlier and safer.

breton | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: Always on low power home server

my rpi boots from an old usb flash drive. It is slow, disk write is 2MB/s, but it is pretty stable so far.

But next time i will probably buy something from https://wiki.debian.org/CheapServerBoxHardware

Please, mention ONSITE next time without mentioning re-mote

breton | 12 years ago | on: VHDL Verification Course

The course assumes some knowledge of VHDL. Could somebody suggest a course/book on Verilog or VHDL for beginners?
