How to check TLS/SSL certificate expiration date from command-line https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/find-check-tls-ssl-certificate-expiry-date-from-linux-unix/ #linux #unix #macos #freebsd #opensource

Can you guess what went wrong?

```

ping ec2.app-in-mum-49

```

Here is what I get:

PING ec2.app-in-mum-49 (23. xx. xxx .xxx) 56(84) bytes of data.

Your first website is going to suck.

Your first blog post is going to suck.

Your first video is going to suck.

Your first app is going to suck.

But if you keep trying 100 times, the 101st attempt will look like a work of Art.

TL;DR: Your first attempts may not be perfect, but keep trying. Perseverance is key.

If Apple could bend the rules of physics, they would eliminate wires and ports from their devices forever. Maybe, they're waiting for Google or Samsung or ARM to violate the laws of physics, then claim it as their own invention. πŸ˜ˆπŸŽπŸ“±πŸ’» 🫣

> Which programming language you no longer use and why?

My answer would be COBOL. It was a weird part of my life. It is over now. No, need to cry over it. LOL. What about you?

nostr:npub128l9twtvpvry0g57mq2we4ldtkgdtzxm76gtvnh6gncq5fprpdjq6nvd04 yes. The initial request seems like management sat on his back while he was typing this email. It was not his intention as a dev but as a dev paid by IBM. Either way, it doesn't look good on IBM's part. That is what I think.

This is what IBM demands from open-source developers. Meanwhile, they cried about the RHEL source code and called those distro users freeloaders or parasites. Anyway, FLOSS devs don’t own anyone anything. If you need support, pay for the contract. The funny thing is IBM/RHEL said they need to pay for their devs, and when you take it free, it is hard to maintain enterprise distro, but when it comes to other FLOSS devs/projects, they don't think the same logic applies.

what was your last "how to..." search about #programming or #Linux or #Unix topics? πŸ€”πŸ”

Is it worth overpaying for extra RAM in laptops that cannot be upgraded later? 8GB? 16GB? 32GB? 64GB? 128GB? What are your bare minimum requirements these days?
