OpenFaaS helps avoid serverless vendor lock-in

Awesome work on OpenFaaS. It serves a critical need in defending against serverless vendor lock-in.

Objections
Automated thanks feel less sincere than personal thanks
From 1 comment
That does kind of take the sincerity out of it, in my opinion. Atleast in a small community it should be no problem to thank supporters individually and that is IMO more…

Handler lacked request validation, so endpoint could be abused
From 2 comments
Been a while since I've used Python but I'm pretty sure this code isn't performing any validation the inbound events[1]. I'd expect some kind of signature validation or a call…
koolba on HNIt's not. It should be verifying the signature in the X-Patreon-Signature header (which should match the body signed with the webhook secret iirc).

From 1 comment
As someone who barely uses curl, could you give an example of a curl command that would send this kind of request?
