  3. Show HN: A kind of looking glass for web abuse

    It kind of occurs to me that maybe this would be generally useful to people with exposed web servers, so I've made it generally available at least for the moment. You should be able to hit it as often as once per hour…

  9. Ask HN: Ways to deal with Python 3.11 breaking change to asyncio

  10. Ask HN: JDBC passthru or MariaDB / PostgreSQL mock server?

    I'm working with an application which only logs to a SQL db; it uses JDBC. It comes with JDBC drivers for MariaDB and PostgreSQL. It is possible to install additional JDBC drivers. I want to do some other logly things…

  14. Ask HN: How important is it for telemetry apps to have something listening?

  19. Ask HN: If DNS over TLS/HTTP(S) work better is it becase TCP?

    In these COVID times I've had a lot of time to look at DNS resolution behavior in my SOHO network, which includes media devices (which don't play nice with others) on one hand and crappy wifi "routers" on the other.…
