As a member of LFGSS and HN, yes!


same :)


Do people still refer to themselves as "webmasters"?


I always assumed the term referred to non-technical or semi-technical people who do things like content authoring/proofreeding for company websites and blogs using a CMS and perhaps do basic SEO.


I sometimes use the title ironically. I tried using "Senior Webmaster" as my title on Linkedin for a while and still had recruiters messaging me.


only those who "mastered" the web in 1998


Unless you're wearing two headphones, in which case, don't.


Headphones rule! Yeah!


Khan Academy has some nice, easy to understand videos on calculus. It depends on your current level of knowledge of course, but I found them useful when I was going back over learning stuff I'd forgotten from school.


I'm so glad I don't have to write classes like this.


SSL fixed now, thanks :D


A part of our core app at work pulls in data from a remote source and the other day the remote server was giving a 502. When I came to test it, everything was fine again but I fixed the problem and wanted to see how it reacted again to a 502. I thought it'd be nice to have something where I could specify a status code and get that code back.


This is a great idea ... Thanks for sharing your test rig. Obviously this can't really be ad supported so maybe a network of us could donate bandwidth if it becomes an issue.


Oops, didn't pick up on this - it works fine on my machine (without adding exception). I've removed the non-ssl redirect while I get it sorted. Thanks for the heads up :)


Intermediate certificates are easy to mess up, and they don't always show up for everyone as a problem.

Just thought I'd help out!

Test with `curl' is where I noticed it broken -- seems to work in Chrome, possibly because they cache intermediate certificates or something?

~% curl 'https://statuscoder.com/ curl: (60) SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed


I'm fairly sure if I develop any sort of vision impediment in future years, Ceefax will have contributed significantly to it.
