andrius4669··on Netflix and FreeBSD: Using Open Source to Deliver Streaming Video [pdf]
>because they are forced to contribute

but they aren't. GPL forces to release source, not contribute.

andrius4669··on Node.js for Embedded Systems
Flawed one, it failed to collect itself.
andrius4669··on The Snowden Legacy, part one: What’s changed, really?
Not taking input from google about who to block (iirc it still use google's safe browsing list) would be nice. That just doesn't feel safe to me, not to mention idealogical reasons. But that's just my opinion I guess.

andrius4669··on GitHub will now tell you if your password has been pwned
But you can do the same in JavaScript.

More serious reason is imo js requirement, as I'm not aware of native support of password hashing in HTML forms. Also, different ways of hash keying/salting would make it either complicated or inflexible..

andrius4669··on The Road to QUIC
Should't that hate be directed to your ISP?

andrius4669··on Quantum Computing Explained
If it comes down to that, bitcoin will probably adopt some post-quantum signature scheme for new wallets.

Probably.

andrius4669··on DNSSEC KSK Rollover Postponed
>DNSSEC has a CA-like trust model.

Not really.

You cannot get .tk operator to sign .jp domain (unless they're both controlled by same authority, which usually isn't the case).

andrius4669··on Windows93 SP2
Would webasm port make this actually real?
andrius4669··on NTFS bug lets anyone hang or crash Windows 7 or 8.1
In context of this issue, it's none of these. file:// scheme should not be accessible from http(s):// contexts.
andrius4669··on Robots.txt meant for search engines don’t work well for web archives
Why not just block ia_archiver useragent in your web server for these paths instead? Also, I'm curious, what that good reason could be?
andrius4669··on How is NSA breaking so much crypto?
pretty good presentation on that by djb: https://projectbullrun.org/surveillance/2015/video-2015.html...
