I work in I.T. on servers all day. I’m not always the best with endpoints/printers/home computers/etc.

The song is “Time” by Pink Floyd for anyone that doesn’t get the reference. If you like that song, Dark Side of the Moon is definitely worth a listen

I think TLA means “Three Letter Acronym” in some circles. So like, DBA would be a TLA meaning “database administrator” for example. Didn’t read the article to get the context though, so not sure if it fits

Drowsy Don…Sad!

I don’t have much experience in the realm of gpg. My experience is mostly with TLS. From what I know, if you’re doing client authentication, you encrypt your message with your private key, and then the public key on a cert is used for validating that the message actually came from you.

I think code signing is similar to client auth, but not positive. Again, I use TLS, but I’m not a professional

Edit:

What I found from Wikipedia:

The client sends a CertificateVerify message, which is a signature over the previous handshake messages using the client’s certificate’s private key. This signature can be verified by using the client’s certificate’s public key. This lets the server know that the client has access to the private key of the certificate and thus owns the certificate.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security#Client-authenticated_TLS_handshake

I think encrypting with a public key is mostly used in client -> server traffic (client encrypts with server’s public key, server decrypts with private), and not code signing. However, I’m no TLS/asymmetric crypto savant.

Is it Clive?

I prefer Google meet to zoom (I use both from a professional standpoint)

I imagine terminal velocity with no air resistance would be 9.8m/s/s. I was saying that the feather reaches terminal velocity more quickly than a bowling ball in non-vacuum conditions

I haven’t seen anyone mention this yet, so here’s how I understand it. The feather falls slower in non-vacuum conditions because it reaches its terminal velocity much more quickly than the bowling ball.

Edit: terminal velocity: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocity

There are people that think this post is wrong because the equation is wrong or due to a lack of units

The equation for cylindrical volume is correct (circular area multipled by height).

And the units are unimportant (can be described as cubed units)

The issue is that Pi is a constant. Constants and variables are different things.

Other examples of constants: 1, 24, 7, -1 … Etc.

Saying Pi = 5 is like saying 1 = 5 … Both Pi and numbers like 1,2,3, etc. have a constant (non-varying) value.

You can’t reassign a value on a constant. It’s like me sticking up 3 fingers and claiming there are 5 fingers there.

Pretty sure that was Dale Earnhardt (think that’s how it’s spelled). He was a famous NASCAR racer

This 100%. I liked bash scripting when I was in college. Took some time to actually learn powershell, and it’s been amazing. Steep learning curve in the beginning, but it’s worth it

Edit: I had also meant to mention the fact that powershell definitely feels a little similar to bash. I mean, not quite the same. Powershell is more object oriented, whereas bash is more text oriented. Powershell for structured data is nice.

Based on the barcode, I’d bet it’s Gregg Allman

I have a feeling IPv6 falls into the category of technology that requires constant “re-learning”. I’d also place OAuth2 in that camp as well

It looks like they’re getting off on the wrong foot
