Cool. No one travels in November, right? 🙃

The latest releases of @cilium.io and cert-manager are both 1.18.2. I briefly thought I had just installed the wrong version of one of them, but it truly is just a weird coincidence.

Q: On purpose?

The FIPS 140-3 Go Cryptographic Module - The Go Programming Language Go now has a built-in, native FIPS 140-3 compliant mode.

I don't understand how saying "backslash" in URLs became a mainstream mix-up. The person saying it almost always just means "slash" or "forward slash" if you're being verbose. But I hear people say "backslash" all the time. Just heard it in an ad on a podcast.
