Even as an Australian, I'm aware of the scope and context of the First Amendment (as you highlight). How are so many Americans so mistaken about their own constitution?
That's not how TTL works. Or do you mean propagation after changing an existing RR? It's "common" to lower a TTL in preparation for a change to an existing RR, but you need to make sure you lower it at least as long as…
This is what the NETMAP target in iptables is for - map an entire subnet to another subnet, including the reverse. We were doing this 20 years ago for clients trying to on-board other companies that they'd bought. It's…
I do not understand this rhetoric of Apple hardware being so amazing. The only moderately impressive thing they've done for years is the M chips. Beyond that, it's just crippled, overpriced, and unrepairable. They have…
Finally, a comment that understands the concepts instead of insolently ranting about how useless it is.
Social media ban for under 16s is the latest half witted idea enacted by the government here.
We just got a whole bunch of new radios for fire brigade in our state. Every radio has a SIM and fails over to the public cell network if the primary (licensed) network is unavailable. Which ironically is one of the…
Visual distraction in IDEs is amazing. I see my co-workers using Visual Studio or something, and I can't even identify the code they're working on among the mess of the screen. There's so much going on. The clean and…
While you're technically correct, what I gathered from their experience is the consistency of usage, between not only their own projects but third-party projects too. They could make technical improvements to their own…
Which is ironic since a lot of people probably only deployed crowdstrike to satisfy their insurers' requirements. It's the only reason we have it deployed.
I recall working on a PICK D3 system, which was a "multivalue" database. Each field could have multiple values, those values could have sub values, and a third level beyond that. Values were separated with char(254),…
This is the original reason for having /bin vs /sbin The sbin directories are supposed to contain "system" (or superuser) commands, and regular users should NOT have those directories in their PATH. This has been broken…
I remember as a kid loading up the Encarta95 CD on the family 486, and the anticipation of what I could discover in the seemingly endless world of information that little spinning silver disc held within. There is no…
Lulu is a good free alternative for Little Snitch
Rundeck fits this space.
The very first HTTP based application I inherited was an internal system served by Apache on a Windows "server" using CGI to a "backend" written in VB6... We would write the code in VB, compile the exe file (files? I…
The Australian government funds childcare. Every time they increase funding, the rates charged to parents increase by the same amount. Total conscience I'm sure. My wife just stayed working full time because we need the…
We still use pagers for emergency response alerting (Victoria, Australia). It's a dedicated, reliable alerting system that ensures the alert goes out between the emergency call takers and first responders. It's reliable…
he.net do free DNS, including secondary slaving. I've used them in a hidden master setup for a few years now for some domains, no complaints.
We had a bug recently where one of our internal bots didn't correctly parse usernames with hyphens in them, so instead of tagging @tom-jones, it would tag @tom Sorry everyone randomly pinged by our bot.
My first job was supporting and developing order related systems for retail and wholesale (separate systems, but we operated both the wholesale and retail operations). Wait until you start having to deal with Forward…
You're probably right, but back then it was assumed you knew what you were doing I guess. The old idiom of "Linux won't stop you shooting yourself in the foot" was even more true of this system.
I can't remember the specific details now (almost 20 years have passed!), but the STKM table was effectively a performance/convenience data store. Every bit of information was available from other transactional data,…
No, I did the entire table. That helped me find corner cases and errors in my logic having such a bigger range of source data.
Yep, the entire table. I figured since I had to write it to do the day at a minimum, doing the whole table would help me find corner cases and errors since it was a much larger range of data
