hi, i dont think this is an issue of clockwork itself, but some of you might give me a hint to prevent it from happening.

couple of weeks ago i noticed the clockwork extension (5.1.1) stopped working in my chrome. the requests are stuck in "waiting" state.
i dug a bit and i suppose it is something on the "chrome" side (not really a problem, i think they hardened some security policy for extensions or whatever). here is my setup - i use clockwork in my local project, that is using self-signed certificate. site works, of course there is sometimes the warning about connection is not secure and strikethrough https...you know. but the clockwork extension doesnt. when i inspect the extension, i see (failed)net::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID in the network tab

seems like this guy had the same issue #714
and there is a brief discussion on laracasts forum about this: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/clockwork-doesnt-work-in-chrome-debug-tools-but-works-in-firefox

it might be a problem for more extensions (if it is true that chrome changed some security behaviour), tried to google around, but couldnt find a solution or workaround. only thing i've found is chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost that looked promisinf, but my project(s) sit on project.test and not localhost, so the flag seems to be not applied

as i mention in the forum, i could make it work (i hope) if i just use "better" certificates and import the CA to my chrome etc... but since it is a docker environment, it is a bit of a pain.

just letting you know, if you could possibly catch the error and display some meaningful error message or something instead of the infinite "waiting", that would be cool. and if someone comes up with a hint to solve it easily, that would be much cooler:D

ps: the web version of clockwork works fine, i am using that instead.
