for installing _PHP_ + some web server in general, not nextcloud specifically!

Wow! I'm glad I saw this today. The server we use to host our corporate blog
was vulnerable. I updated the php-fpm to the latest and I think I'm OK now.

Actually not, it's safe from the exploit published, but not from the actual
bug.

Interesting to see the exploit written in Go. Proof, maybe, that Go has
finally landed.

I noticed that, too. Including a `go get` instruction to get it, no less.

I have a major frustration with payment providers — even contemporary players
like Stripe — that can't offer a 3rd party payments system. That is, anything
resembling a "marketplace" where you sell things on behalf of someone else,
take a cut and pass on the rest to the content creator requires the integrator
to come up with a half-assed payout pipeline. This often results in sending
cheques and/or making PayPal payments.

My dream would be a product offering that offered pass-through payment
processing, so my vendors have an account and give my store a key. Payments go
directly to the vendor, and a pre-negotiated amount or percentage is
automatically collected and sent to me. Both me and the vendor pay the same
processing rate.

I have several concepts I'd love to build and launch, but all of them fall
down because I can't easily justify a 2x2.9% transaction fee.
