Easy gopher-lua bridge

I have some go code that I’d like to be a little more flexible at runtime. Like a config file, but maybe with some conditional logic based on string matching. If this sounds like a proxy deciding which filtering functions to apply based on URL, that’s a good guess.

Interesting use case, reminds me of redis lua integration in a way.

So it's about the go programming language? I was expecting a gopher server.

OK, thanks for the information. Now I don't need to add an exception to the security certificate.

Invalid TLS certificates?

Self signed cert... should've used Let's Encrypt

Ted is bound and determined to make a political point out of self-signed certs. Let's Encrypt being free makes absolutely no difference to his belief that self-signing is completely valid and should be accepted by all.

The pragmatics of people being able to access his website also seems to make absolutely no difference to him.

Seeing that too. Safari 11 on Mac.

Self signed. Don't remember why (but there is a reason). Not sure why he doesn't just use Lets Encrypt.

So, when I look at his front page, the claimed SHA256 fingerprint for ca-tedunangst-com.crt is: 049673630a4a8d801a6c17ac727e015fbf951686cdd253d986e9e4d1a8375cba

When I try to add that CA to Firefox, it shows the SHA256 fingerprint as AA:DD:6D:06:88:7B:36:60:67:56:00:AB:D0:76:FB:B4:3C:60:10:14:5D:AB:4D:39:06:F8:24:08:4B:14:D2:BE

So I should not trust that CA certificate?
