Cheeky. I love it!

SSL was the latest standard until 1999, when TLS 1.0 was released.

Per RFC 2246 [0], "The differences between this protocol [TLS 1.0] and SSL 3.0 are not dramatic, but they are significant enough to preclude interoperability between TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0"

SSL/TLS Versions 1995-present: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security#Histo...

I was excited to see how they got Cloudflare's origin server IP address:

            if cmd in ["CFIP", "DNS"]:
                print("Soon")
                continue
Looks like I'll have to wait :/

This clicks with me more than SICP with Scheme. Skimming through it, I like the example using a recursive summation function to approximate the integral of a cubic.

This is a disaster waiting to happen. If it spilled, it would disrupt the Suez Canal and jeopardize the livelihoods of 1.7 million people who depend on fish.

Thanks for sharing. Hearing it spoken aloud highlights how the numbers flow into each other, almost like the letters LMNO in the alphabet.

@zeebeecee In word.js, why do you have a list of `impossibleWords`? Many of them are valid English words, like FEARS.

These are the five SSL options for a Cloudflare website [0]:

1. No SSL: User <--HTTP--> Cloudflare <--HTTP--> Origin Server

2. Flexible SSL: User <--HTTPS--> Cloudflare <--HTTP--> Origin Server

3. Full SSL: User <--HTTPS--> Cloudflare <--HTTPS--> Origin Server; Self-signed cert ok, expired cert ok

4. Full SSL (strict): User <--HTTPS--> Cloudflare <--HTTPS--> Origin Server; Origin server must use an SSL certificate that Cloudflare provides [1]

5. Strict (SSL-Only Origin Pull): User <--HTTPS--> Cloudflare <--HTTPS--> Origin Server; same as Full SSL (strict), but you pay need to pay Cloudflare more money

---

3 and above will fix this issue as they encrypt from Cloudflare to the Origin Server.

This is the traffic flow from the link:

User -> Cloudflare -> Airtel -> GitHub Pages

Where the connection with flexible SSL is Cloudflare <--HTTP--> GitHub Pages.

Upgrading to Full SSL (or higher) and using HTTPS on GitHub [2] should fix.

---

Alternatively, deploy your static website with Cloudflare Pages [3], which has feature parity with Github Pages.

The flow would then be: User <--HTTPS--> Cloudflare Pages

I live in Humboldt County, so I got one of these notifications. Mine arrived 5 seconds after the earthquake, and several of the people on my discord server got it 2-5s after the earthquake. One person got it a couple seconds before.
