I would argue that is different because an Https server doesn’t scale as much as a user login. Also, as someone that had to rely on things like “letsencryp” free certificates for personal servers, this is so annoying to setup and I hate that security needs a third party having to give me something for free and be able to stop giving it at any moment.
I do get the point on servers, is annoying but adds security to people visiting webs. but making this also a problem on the user login side is exactly why people hate this shit, and doesn’t add any security for the users.
He used to be cool, but then he started following some corporate hype trends that make me suspicious, I think he is nearing retirement and doesn’t want to fight corpos anymore.
The moment he accepted Rust officially on the kernel was the time I knew he got a bit too old to care anymore… This is just a continuation.
Also is so curious to see the venn diagram of people supporting Rust and AI being mostly a circle. My theory is that Rust takes every piece of joy out of programming and thus the idea of never programming again becomes so attractive if you are surrounded by Rust.
