Mostly agreed. In a previous life, I used to write code, then got Peter Principled upwards to the point where I "trusted" the engineers under me to do their job. Did I understand all the code my team wrote? Of course…
Elections have consequences. I doubt anyone rational would have thought it would be a useful expenditure of time to get into this particular pissing match, but here we are. Maybe in the next presidential election the 87…

This would argue that change of ownership of a domain should be treated equivalently to creation of a domain. Of course, given GDPR (or rather how the registrars have chosen to interpret GDPR to reduce their legal…
I'm curious: can anyone provide an interpretation in which this agreement does not boil down to surrender by the US?
Science? Maybe in an ideal world. However, how science actually gets done has always been at the mercy of social, cultural, institutional, and/or economic pressures.
Congress neutered itself, largely because it has been politically less risky to let the Executive branch do whatever they want, then either cheer it on or rage against it depending on party and what drives donations so…
No. It's been a while, but I believe if you use multiple TXTs, resolvers can reorder them as they see fit. For example, label IN TXT "foo " IN TXT "bar " IN TXT "baz" You can have any number of TXT RRs with a label,…
"The length limit of a DNS TXT record is 255 characters." Nope. That's the maximum length of a TXT record string. TXT record strings with the same owner name get concatenated together. The maximum for a TXT record is…
As someone on the tail end of that birth cohort (and to quote Monty Python), "I'm not dead yet!". According to BLS (as pointed to by https://usafacts.org/answers/what-is-the-labor-force-partici...), the 55-and-older…
Seems the Trump administration is trying to use 1984 as a how-to: “And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth.”
How many people in NYC that are buying raw milk do you think are doing so to make cheese or kefir?
If DJB is "hated", it isn't because he's a lone author (Linus Torvalds was once a lone author and I don't think he was hated). It's because he can be an asshole. To quote George Bernard Shaw, “The reasonable man adapts…
Oh joy. Now the volunteers maintaining the IETF RFC tools get to waste their time trying to prevent folks who think it's cute to litter all over the IETF drafts. I suppose it was inevitable. Another reason why we can't…
See "inflation". Look at the outcomes of countries who remove controls on printing money (e.g., Zimbabwe, Venezuela).
You mean the ones that are the result of experience through controlled clinical trials with statistical analyses and error bars, yep, sure. I guess I have a bit more faith in those leaflets and the testing regimes that…

Was wondering how long it'd take you to come in and trash talk DNSSEC. And now with added FUD ("and once you press that button it's much less likely that you're going to leave your provider"). At least you're consistent.
I signed up for a Pro account yesterday, now when I try to access it, I get shuffled off to the 'create a new account' page. Trying to access a human in support to understand wtf has been going on, perhaps…
As others have pointed out, using 'tmptest' works until someone buys tmptest -- unlikely, but people will buy anything these days. I always use the ISO-3166 "user-assigned" 2-letter codes (AA, QM-QZ, XA-XZ, ZZ), with…

Yep, the "Emanuel S. Heller Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley." (perhaps ironically given the reputation of Berkeley).
