• regular Vim has lua?!

  Lua is quite small, encouraging distros to include it. The ubuntu gvim has, and the gvim AppImage linked from vim.org does. The default Makefile from github is set up to not include it, but you can uncomment one line there to get it. Source: over 3 years ago

• is there a way to make highlighted text persistent after quit when using something like [match Search /\%'.line('.').'l/] ?

  I've not used vimwiki locally (tho I'm old enough to remember the Vim wiki on vim.org :), but I think what you are wanting to do is extend vimwiki's syntax file. I presume it installs one at $VIMRUNTIM/syntax or or ~/.vim/syntax. If this sounds right, then create a ~/.vim/after/syntax/vimwiki.vim file and place your match command in there. Then everytime you open a vimwiki file it should apply your... Source: over 3 years ago

• vim.org - Is there a reason for this 1800s-esque design?

  Vim.org has 242k total visitors, tailwindcss.com has 4.4m, planetscale.com has 412k, jpl.nasa.gov has 2.6m, all built with Tailwind, all several years younger than Vim's website. Unnecessary comparison, unnecessary defence. It's a valuable tool, fine, but a complete disregard for anyone who doesn't love a crappy website and would like to navigate a website like a normal human is not something to be defended. Maybe...

• What is YOUR process of writing ?

  I write in Vim with some customizations in my vimrc to gear it more towards prose writing than code editing. It's not pretty, but Normal Mode and Ex commands are the most powerful text editing tools out there, so that means I spend less time on making corrections and other edits. Source: over 4 years ago

• Upcoming Changes to Let's Encrypt Certificates

  Haven’t tried it myself, but this one looks interesting: https://certifytheweb.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• We just hit $1M ARR in 4 years. With zero funding

  Always encouraging to see that ideas can work out. I'm not quite managing the "let's build a team" aspect just yet but otherwise similar journey and outcome over a (slightly) longer period. I just wanted to not deal with certificates, now I deal with certificates all day every day lol: https://certifytheweb.com. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• TLS Certificate Lifetimes Will Officially Reduce to 47 Days

  Pretty sure this only refers to publicly trusted certs. What percentage of public certs are still being manually managed? I've been in the cert automation industry for 8 years (https://certifytheweb.com) and I do still hear of manual work going on, but the majority of stuff can be automated. For stuff that genuinely cannot be automated (are you sure you're sure) these become monthly maintenance tasks,... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• SSL certificate lifetimes are going down. Dates proposed. 45 days by 2027

  This is largely a solved problem. On Windows https://certifytheweb.com has provided automated certificate management for the best part of a decade and we're now branching out into large scale cross-platform tools, for those interested. I was surprised by a customer yesterday who was looking to migrate thousands of manually renewed 1 year certs, I had no idea people were still using 1 yr certs to such a... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Running One-man SaaS for 9 Years

  Thanks :) - yes 90% of users are using the free version. It's a desktop app you install on servers. The API elements it does have are a combination of cloudflare workers, a windows server (for customer portal), linux for community discourse. Peak API use so far is 350M requests per month (was about $46 on cloudflare) but have managed to curtail that a bit. https://certifytheweb.com. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
