brew is a bad neighbor

This isn't a guide about locking down homebrew so that it can't touch the rest of your system security-wise.

This guide doesn't fix the inherent security issues of a package management system that will literally yell at you if you try to do something about "huh, maybe it's not great my executables are writeable by my account without requiring authorization first".

But it absolutely is a guide about shoving it into its own little corner so that you can take it or leave it as you see fit, instead of just letting the project do what it likes like completely taking over permissions and ownership of a directory that might be in use by other software on your Mac and stomping all over their contents.

By following this guide you will:

• Never have to run sudo to forcefully change permissions of some directory to be owned by your account

Recursive Values

In a functional language, writing recursive functions is common, but it is also possible to write recursive values. Here is a simple example of a recursive value:

ones = 1 :: ones

This is an infinite loop. We just keep growing the ones list to infinity. So #873 logged folks running into this and made it an error. This was especially nice for cases like x = x + 1 where folks were expecting Elm to allow mutation.

Elm: Supplementary Notes

In which I get angry because some aspect of Elm seems weird, and the docs aren't helping, so I jot down these notes, because writing forces me to think deeply about things in a way that I'm incapable of doing otherwise gaaasspp

Grokking Markup

Building markup in Elm entails building a data structure, much like React's virtual DOM. That is, you're not building DOM nodes directly, but rather a lightweight data structure that tells the Elm runtime which DOM nodes you want to exist and it figures it out from there. There's really nothing special about Elm's Html; it's just another data type.

What does Html msg actually mean?

OverEncrypt

This is a guide that I wrote to improve the default security of my website https://fortran.io , which has a certificate from LetsEncrypt. I'm choosing to improve HTTPS security and transparency without consideration for legacy browser support.

WARNING: if you mess up settings, lose your certificates, or decide to no longer maintain HTTPS certs, these steps can and will make your domain inaccessible.

I would recommend these steps only if you have a specific need for information security, privacy, and trust with your users, and/or maintain a separate secure.example.com domain which won't mess up your main site. If you've been thinking about hosting a site on Tor, then this might be a good option, too.

The best resources that I've found for explaining these steps are https://https.cio.gov , https://certificate-transparency.org , and https://twitter.com/konklone
