Having the root CA's private key doesn't give them access to the end entity's private keys. When you ask a CA for a cert, you only provide them with your public key (in the form of a CSR) for them to sign. The CSR does not contain the private key.

Nice service. When I'm coding Trance, mainly Armin van Buuren, works best for me.

They're doing very well with testicular cancer treatment. About 90% are cured regardless of stage. Treatment of other cancers hasn't progressed as well unfortunately.

I'd add: check your SSL certificate installation using a tool like this: http://certlogik.com/ssl-checker/

I enjoyed this documentary -

Ramanujan: Letters from an Indian Clerk: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OARGZ1xXCxs

I agree; I setup a new Linode with Ubuntu a couple of days ago and the whole process was smooth and enjoyable. The documentation is well laid out and super easy to follow.

I noticed the Django Boilerplate link seems to be dead. Great list. Thanks.

Looks like the offer has now ended. I'm seeing the US version for $4.79 and the UK version is £3.02.

from the forum - "If you have problems with "Aircraft View" or API-key, make sure to install latest version of Google Earth plugin-in http://www.google.com/earth/explore/products/plugin.html and remove your ad-blocker."

I logged in to google earth, paused ad blocker and cockpit view is now working for me.

There was a good radiolab podcast about this:

NRICH is a joint project between the Faculties of Mathematics and Education at The University of Cambridge. It has lots of interesting problems to encourage mathematical thinking.

I wonder what the school board would have done with Fahrenheit 451.

This is probably my favourite novel and Jean Valjean my favourite fictional hero.

Always on the lookout for a good read. Thanks for posting the question. Through HN I discovered:

"A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy"

Which I enjoyed very much.

Nothing in the SSL certificate returned identifies www.reddit.com hence the warning. The common name of the cert (typically used to identify the website) is actually a248.e.akamai.net. I think akamai are a service that many websites use but their generic SSL cert can cause problems. You can view the cert using: http://certlogik.com/sslchecker/www.reddit.com/

Sorry if I wasn't clear, I'm not against commercial software. I develop commercial software myself. Where I was in agreement with Stallman was when he was talking about the "empire of the corporations". Looking at what's happening with SOPA, it appears that corporations may get this law past because they have been throwing money at the political parties. This isn't anything new, but watching the debate and seeing it happening before my eyes brought home to me just how corrupt government can be.

Agreed with a lot of what he was saying about corporations controlling government and society. SOPA seems like a good example of that.

Here's another time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm3whAxMgdc. I'm pretty sure I've heard him use it a few times.

It would be nice if HN could put up the black bar at the top of the page today for Hitch.

Always made me smile when he finished off a debate with the "We've barely got our trousers off" line.

Stellarium (http://www.stellarium.org/) is pretty good too. I've only used it on Windows and Linux, but there is Stellarium XL for the iPad.

I've used Avangate. Pretty straightforward to setup; no prerequisites for a gateway or merchant account.

I mainly went to the cache link. Getting easy access to the highlighted search terms was so useful.

Looks great. Is that your own design or based on a template from Themeforest or similar? If a template, do you mind saying which one?

These lectures on linear algebra by Prof. Gilbert Strang are an excellent resource: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-06-linear-algebra-...

Does anyone have any statistics about the number of independent developers / startups that suffer a significant negative financial impact because of a patent infringement lawsuit? My gut feeling is that it's a very small percentage. A few years ago, I think Paul Graham wrote an article suggesting startups shouldn't worry about being sued because in practice it rarely happens to them.

Very interesting video. There is also a good Radiolab podcast about this research with respect to cities.

I prefer to grab a sandwich and go for a walk. This was especially true when I was contracting and based in interesting cities that were fun to explore.
