Catering more to a German speaking audience but nonetheless a pretty good overview (updated quarterly?):

> It is striking that such a backdoor in seemingly safe OSs like Linux and FreeBSD [...]

Not saying these are a 100% secure but you're plying this was _built_ into Linux (and other OSes). It was not. And the PDF makes no such claim either.

Nebula is fantastic, absolute love it. We use it in production. Cert management can be a bit of a pain on a large scale but there's an excellent Terraform provider [0] that can help. Coupled with the Terraform ansible provider and a little bit of scripting you can automate anything related to cert provisioning and renewal.

The Nebula creators actually started their own company after leaving Slack focusing on handling your mentioned pain points with cert management and orchestration: defined.net

You should give nebula a try. I've recently switched my private VPN setup from wireguard to nebula and am looking into using it for work. It has some really nice features (for our use case), so ymmv. But so far it's been fantastic and very easy to use.

Yeah, I think many "buy it for life" items are generally only sensible if you depend on them either for work, a somewhat regular hobby, or for everyday use.

Sometimes it almost hurts me to buy cheap junk. But then I also realize that this is perfectly adequate for my use cases and even $10 more for another product would not be worth it. (And who says that the other product would really be better?).

Apparently anything more than clearing the launch pad was a win. Musk's dead stare seems to disagree tho

After clicking through a few random lectures, this seems fantastic. I wish I'd found this during my physics B.Sc.

For those not in the know NPTEL has a boatload of high quality STEM content. Often they will be the only place you can find the more advanced courses on certain less popular STEM courses.

I'd rather have some physical knob that I can use to turn something off, even if I have to bust out the pliers. Good luck shutting off some touch control that's on the fritz.

The stove at my parents place has some touch control to activate another heating ring(?). Not only is that hard to activate with wet or greasy fingers, but after a couple of years of use it keeps turning itself off now. Thank god that thing fails "closed" and does not (yet?) spontaneously activate effectively doubling the heating power.

This is one of the reasons I bought a USB hub were I can switch connected devices off and on (disconnects their power lines). If you're lazy like me you can plug another USB hub into one of the ports so that can switch multiple devices (webcam and mic) with one button press instead of two :) Searching for "usb hub power switch" should get you a few hits.

I've been using something similar: https://github.com/vincentdoerig/latex-css Seems like it could easily be adapted to match the style.
