Currently on the free tier for my personal projects and would love to play with this on my personal k8s cluster.

msumpter | 8 years ago | on: The Equifax breach may be the worst leak of personal info ever
Based on the fact their privacy policy and terms of service were just updated on Sep 6, this seems pretty blatant. Browserwrapped agreements haven't held up in most cases, but having the arbitration clause at the very beginning seems to be point of the entire thing. Pushing a notice 41 days after a breach (just in time for the 45 day requirement in most states) and directing individuals to check if they are impacted all while tricking them into waiving rights. Seems deceptive to me.

It is mostly publicly available data, but not always easily accessible (states have varying requirements and methods of acquisition), firms go through quite a bit to get aggregate files in all 50 states. For them to be put up with no protection is jarring. But not surprising with other recent disclosures.
I only wish we had access to the files to do some queries across them!

1) Editing paid invoices shouldn't be allowed after a payment has been made.
2) Quotes should have an accept or sign option, the quote list should reflect the status.
3) Quotes should also have templates similar to invoices
4) Dashboard widget reflecting outstanding payments, recent payment stats, etc. Could be handy.

I think moving the site to a normal static site generator (like Jekyll) would deliver the most bang for the buck but would be quite the transition. The site would only need to be built upon a new commit and with the proper site generator it will only update the underlying HTML files that require a change. Then syncing the update HTML to whatever CDN is chosen.

If you want to give this a try within Docker I setup a repo here to try it out: https://github.com/msumpter/docker-lua-resty-auto-ssl
msumpter | 9 years ago | on: On the fly SSL registration and renewal inside Nginx with Let's Encrypt
I had been playing around with https://github.com/jwilder/nginx-proxy and docker-gen to handle automatic Let's Encrypt generation for my docker containers.
It's amazing how quick to get some of these thing setup with very work: https://github.com/msumpter/docker-lua-resty-auto-ssl
