catatsuy's Picks Vol.10
Go
I tried using modernize, and it was quite good. It's handy and easy to use.
Security
The QuicTLS repo has moved. It seems they will stop being a fork of OpenSSL and proceed as a separate repository.
TLS certificate lifetimes will be reduced in stages. It will become 47 days on 2029/3/15. Since it will be 100 days as of 2027/3/15, it's already impossible to manage without automation.
My understanding is that there aren't many certificate authorities that support the ACME protocol, so I wonder what will happen. Perhaps a drastic shakeout of certificate authorities will occur.
By the way, the timeframes apparently have the following meanings:
- 200 days = 6 maximal months (184 days) + 1/2 30-day month (15 days) + 1 day wiggle room
- 100 days = 3 maximal months (92 days) + ~1/4 30-day month (7 days) + 1 day wiggle room
- 47 days = 1 maximal month (31 days) + 1/2 30-day month (15 days) + 1 day wiggle room
AI
An embedding model with high accuracy for Japanese. It looks very promising.
Both the tool and its internal implementation look interesting. I didn't know about macOS's sandbox-exec until now.
I thought the Gemini library was a bit mediocre because it has many dependencies, but it seems an API with the same specifications as the ChatGPT API has been released.
VS Code extensions being blocked in Cursor. Well, since this is Microsoft's ecosystem, I guess it can't be helped. It feels like we're heading toward a world like Chinese app stores where copies are distributed without permission.
Frontend
Running browsers for things like E2E testing is slow and painful. I've always thought it would be great to have a fast browser for testing purposes, so this looks good. Looking forward to its future development.
A summary of how the long-standing specification for changing link colors was modified for privacy protection.
Etc
I'm looking forward to future updates for kana-kanji conversion systems.
ChatGPT has been able to fully answer questions at a level suitable for interviews for quite a while now. This trend will likely continue to grow.

I released bento a few times. I added Gemini support and changed the default model to gpt-4.1-nano.
I submitted a PR to nginx. The development of nginx, which had stalled for a while, has completely revitalized with the move to GitHub. I wonder what will happen with this patch.
About how I managed to build nginx with zlib-ng statically linked. While chatting with o3 thinking it might be my fault, I realized there might be a bug in nginx itself. I'm so happy to have o3 as a partner.
