Tuning Windows 10 for Slow Machines

Windows 10 on slow netbook

This guide is for those who dares to install Windows 10 on slow netbooks (1GB of RAM).
Though Windows update program is over, you still may use old Windows product keys from license stickers to install Windows 10 on old machines.

This article is quite old, some instructions may be obsolete.

OverEncrypt - paranoid HTTPS

OverEncrypt

This is a guide that I wrote to improve the default security of my website https://fortran.io , which has a certificate from LetsEncrypt. I'm choosing to improve HTTPS security and transparency without consideration for legacy browser support.

WARNING: if you mess up settings, lose your certificates, or decide to no longer maintain HTTPS certs, these steps can and will make your domain inaccessible.

I would recommend these steps only if you have a specific need for information security, privacy, and trust with your users, and/or maintain a separate secure.example.com domain which won't mess up your main site. If you've been thinking about hosting a site on Tor, then this might be a good option, too.

The best resources that I've found for explaining these steps are https://https.cio.gov , https://certificate-transparency.org , and https://twitter.com/konklone

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

Notes on getting macOS Sierra running in Virtualbox on a Windows 10 host

On Mac

Download, but don't run, the Sierra installer from the Mac App Store. This places the installer at /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app/.

Now run the following commands to build a suitable VM image from the installer:

git clone https://github.com/jonanh/osx-vm-templates
cd osx-vm-templates/packer

sudo ../prepare_iso/prepare_vdi.sh -D DISABLE_REMOTE_MANAGEMENT -o macOS_10.12.vdi /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Sierra.app/ .
