Marcos Dione on Nostr: Does anyone know about the rationale behind the 6 of "#LetsEncrypt will offer certs ...
Does anyone know about the rationale behind the 6 of "#LetsEncrypt will offer certs that will expire in 6 days"? I understand that 7 is not a good number (for 2/7ths of the users, certificates would always expire on weekends), but why 6? why not 8 or 10? 7 is prime, so any number that's not a 7 multiple would work. Does anyone have a link to the discussion?
