How to securely test local/staging HTTPS project

Modern projects often support HTTPS and HTTP/2, moreover they can use Strict-Transport-Security: and Content-Security-Policy: headers which result in different behaviour for HTTP and HTTPS versions, or even completely forbid HTTP version. To develop and test such project locally, on CI, and at staging server we either have to provide a way to access it using HTTP in non-production environments (bad idea) or somehow make it work with HTTPS everywhere.

HTTP in non-production environments is a bad idea because we'll test not the same thing which will runs on production, and because there is a chance to occasionally keep HTTP enabled on production too.

Ubuntu/Debian Offline Repository Creation Gist

When I googled how to create my own offline repository of packages for use in an offline Ubuntu/Debian machine, the results were disheartening and the steps to be taken scattered all over the place.

The files within this gist will allow you to:

• Download specific apt-get packages... with dependencies included!
• Create a Packages.gz file so that you can add the repository folder you create to the target machine's /etc/apt/sources.list file.

Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."

• http://mvdirona.com/jrh/talksandpapers/jamesrh_lisa.pdf

Basic tenets

• Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
• Have we kept things as simple as possible?
