I'm not a meteorologist, but modern meteorology is a lot of physics and math and supercomputers.

Yeah, that's a valid argument.

Sure I would.

Regardless of whether you prefer Trump or Biden, I don't get this trend of making last-minute US policy changes before Trump sits in. Can't he undo all that once he becomes Preside…

what do you mean?

I'm from another European country. We do tip, but occasionally, only if we believe something about that meal was really great, and there's no set percentage. Also, there are no tip…

Let's say your application talks to a database. You reuse connections with a connection pool, but you accidentally reuse connections with different privileges and scopes. As a resu…

Cool, but you could add units of measure at least to the y-axis? We get the general trend, but we don't know if that peak is 10%, 20%, 100% or something else.

The point of tipping is that it's _supposed to_ go straight to the servers, while normal charges go the owners who then share them with their employees as they see fit. Assuming th…

Interesting, thanks!

Interesting, thanks!

On an exposed NAS? Everything is possible, I know, but the amount of hacks related to S3 misconfigurations ( https://github.com/nagwww/s3-leaks ), including major companies, still …

The interesting thing is, most people wouldn't do the same things (say, chmod 777 all the things) on a public NAS. If this assumption is true, it begs the question. Why do people a…

I'm not sure how the author seems to know the Chinese EW playbook. Is there any open source (as in OSINT) material on this?

Exactly. People join SO and other SE websites to ask questions and get answers. With ChatGPT and similar platforms, trained on SE answers (and open Github repos,...), people will e…

I get why, in principle, we should pay people for open source projects, but I guess it doesn't make much of a difference when it comes to vulnerabilities. First off, there are a lo…

>Your "mindset" is basically allowing bad code into the Kernel and hoping that it gets caught. Not at all. I'm talking about running more and more rigorous security tests because y…

The "core systems of Linux" include the Linux kernel, openssh, xz and similar libraries, coreutils, openssl, systemd, dns and ntp clients, possibly curl and wget (what if a GET on …

I don't have kids and I'm not an anthropologist, but I would guess this also happens because parents look for a way to keep their children engaged with something that doesn't requi…

Sure, but a HA database + batch processing solution and a HA Elastic cluster setup are more or less similar in terms of complexity, number of nodes, RTO/RPO concerns,...

I guess it depends on the ultimate goal. If the ultimate goal is to avoid backdoors in critical infrastructures (think government systems, financial sector, transportation,...) you…
