Water is plentiful in our solar system. Much of it is locked up as ice, but it appears there is lots of it in liquid form underneath the ice in several moons as well.

It's just oxidized hydrogen.

Hydrogen is the most common element in the universe. Oxygen is the third most common.

Gotta say I agree with this. I notice a lot of Python programmers tend to use less descriptive variable names. That's always been a pet-peeve of mine.

Lovely :-)

Big fan of this post

Simply put: nonsense.

Yeah a huge alien ice spaceship.

Actually, a large part of a spaceship capable of traveling near c would be comprised of ice, as a shield from relativistic particles.

It slices! It dices! It's a shield! It's reaction mass! It's fuel! It's potable water!

Interested in how this design decelerates

Fun to play around with for a minute. I have fond memories of that OS.

That's the entire point. If the whole web is going to be secure, then someone who "is not who you'd want implementing your web server security" needs to be able to make it work, and work right.

Well, the counter argument is that even if the whole population is going to not have brain tumours - I _still_ don't want "someone who's not a rocket surgeon" doing brain surgery.

Crypto is non-trivial. There'll never be a proper "Click this button to automatically secure your random php app running in cPanel/Plesk".

The best we'll see I suspect is a "click here and make your website pass the minimal checks modern browsers use to determine if you're secure", then we'll have a daily stream of site owners claiming "the PII/password/creditcard breach wasn't my fault - I used 2048 bit encryption!"

I believe let's encrypt is supposed to be a single command to run. Anyone that can set up a webserver can manage it.

If you're going the minimally technical route then you're using shared or managed hosting and it's not your job to set up the SSL.

My favorite type of article, thanks! Even better when the stuff they're using is open source so I can check it out for myself.

I'd like to think this post is an exaggeration.

Unfortunately not there are a lot of developers can only use phpmyadmin or thier CMS's gui - and from what I am told being able to code basic sql joins is not something you can take for granted.

Crazy talk. And these 'developers' are pulling in six-figure?

Insanity.

Why port it? IME the only projects we write in Python3 are new projects.
