I can only speak for myself, but I'm just glad you're still a member of these communities. Take care of yourself, and I look forward to many more years of learning from your code!

I feel like this should be a bit of a two way street. Is there anything we can be doing for you?

I see there's an option for GitHub sponsorship, would that still be your preference?

Couldn’t agree more — Much like running my own DNS or email server, I don’t think I’ll ever go back to running my own website directly on the internet. It’s just not worth the hassle. For stuff only I use, it sits behind my VPN. For anything that _must_ be public, it’s going behind a WAF someone else can run.

I’m not sure you can really categorize rust as a high level language, unless you’re stating crypto primitives should only be written in assembly.

EDIT: Given this attack was also applied to OpenSSL, amongst many others this high level language comment seems doubly odd/dubious

EDIT2: another rust TLS implementation was among only 3 that was initially verified to be not vulnerable as well..

Is there a tl;dr on why I’d want to boost? Vs say normal browser behaviour

Doesn’t seem like a particularly notable release, anything I’m missing?

I will given Berlin credit here — after checking in to our accommodations (took a taxi from the airport), I poked a ticket machine, quickly saw the Union Jack flag and got the machine into English. Couple minutes later we had our 1 week passes in hand. In general I found the system very approachable, using google maps for route planning.

Yes. They own much of the infrastructure used by the project, and fund some of the people managing said infrastructure. In addition to the trademark.

I mean yes — that’s the point. If untrusted parties have access to your keys, it’s already game over. You’ve lost. Disabling them is the nicest thing an attacker can do for you.

Canadian but also lived in the US. Have not lived in the EU.

For Canada, while geographically large population wise it’s very small compared to the US. The big Canadian banks are targeting a similar sized demographic to California.

I’m less familiar with Europe, but I’m guessing most nations still have prominent national retail banks, with some having an EU wide market? Those national retail banks would effectively be regional in the US.
