Mini tutorial for configuring client-side SSL certificates.

Client-side SSL

For excessively paranoid client authentication.


Updated Apr 5 2019:

because this is a gist from 2011 that people stumble into and maybe you should AES instead of 3DES in the year of our lord 2019.

some other notes:

Falsehoods programmers believe about prices

  1. You can store a price in a floating point variable.
  2. All currencies are subdivided in 1/100th units (like US dollar/cents, euro/eurocents etc.).
  3. All currencies are subdivided in decimal units (like dinar/fils)
  4. All currencies currently in circulation are subdivided in decimal units. (to exclude shillings, pennies) (counter-example: MGA)
  5. All currencies are subdivided. (counter-examples: KRW, COP, JPY... Or subdivisions can be deprecated.)
  6. Prices can't have more precision than the smaller sub-unit of the currency. (e.g. gas prices)
  7. For any currency you can have a price of 1. (ZWL)
  8. Every country has its own currency. (EUR is the best example, but also Franc CFA, etc.)

Quick steps of how to create a flame graph using perf

The prep-script.sh will setup the latest Node and install the latest perf version on your Linux box.

When you want to generate the flame graph, run the following (folder locations taken from install script):

Installing flent on OS/X with homebrew
`pip install flent matplotlib`
`brew install fping`
Netperf in homebrew is installed without demo mode by default, so we need to edit the recipe slightly, also demo mode fails to build under OS/X, requiring a tiny patch to netlib.c ( http://www.netperf.org/pipermail/netperf-talk/2013-December/001162.html ). The following recipe changes the URL to a prepatched version that I host and changes the configure line to enable demo mode.
`brew edit netperf`
```

Cake's approach to React Router server rendering w/code splitting and Redux

Can't share the complete code because the app's closed source and still in stealth mode, but here's how I'm using React Router and Redux in a large app with server rendering and code splitting on routes.

Server

  1. Wildcard Express route configures a Redux store for each request and makes an addReducers() callback available to the getComponents() method of each React Router route. Each route is responsible for adding any Redux reducers it needs when it's loaded. (This isn't really necessary on the

vim/neovim configuration

I recently switched over to neovim (see my screenshots at the bottom). Below is my updated config file.

It's currently synchronized with my .vimrc config except for a block of neovim-specific terminal key mappings.

This is still a work in progress (everyone's own config is always a labor of love), but I'm already extremely pleased with how well this is working for me with neovim. While terminal mode isn't enough to make me stop using tmux, it is quite good and I like having it since it simplifies my documentation workflow for yanking terminal output to paste in a markdown buffer.

These days I primarily develop in Go. I'm super thrilled and grateful for fatih/vim-go,
