SwimAway··on Apply HN: Brightwork – Making APIs More Intelligent
I acknowledge your disagreement and find it to be inexperienced. You should follow the standards, not trial-and-error until a third party gives you a thumbs up. Re-configuring your internal structure is only as extensive as the complexity (which is usually nil).

If you need an instructional video on how to complete such a trivial task, let me know. I guarantee it will be less than 5 minutes on a variety of environments. What "hundreds" of these tasks are you speaking of? Please meticulously explain rather than fluff your speech to make the process seem more debilitating than it is.

Also: minuscule

It is interesting however I feel it is best to wait for your platform to mature. I lack environments to test your product and refuse to use this with anything sensitive. Configuring SSL/TLS is a minuscule process taking only a few minutes, vital for security, that has been neglected. I'll keep your product in mind until these rudimentary basics have been addressed.

Thanks, Josh.

'josh_carterPDX' claimed beta was open now in a comment earlier. Yet you're just adding people to the waiting list? That seems inconsistent.

Security is always a high priority and a fundamental feature for any stage of business. That is especially true when credentials and authorizations are intertwined.

It is SSL*.

Watch the first video under 'further reading'. Many of those congressmen seem very biased and uneducated while deliberately misconstruing basic knowledge and law.

Edit: wanted to commend congressmen Mr. Issa, Ms. Lofgren and Mr. Johnson.

Fortunate? Freedom of speech (et al.) is a birthright, NOT a privilege. If only the people of Japan stood up for their rights..

Where are the security researchers? Credible, elaborate, and well-documented articles? Has this not captured their attention or is it a lack of concern?
