Maybe they didn't know there is a difference? I'm from Europe and I didn't. You register to be able to vote? Why isn't every citizen automatically allowed to vote?

Since you mention regulation, I think it is something to be proud of. GDPR, Germany saying hell-no to forced Facebook accounts, etc. As for innovation? US isn't even top 10 when it…

IPV6 commonly does that. Your next hop is installed as a link-local fe80-entry which is derived from the mac address. Not exactly what you're after, but removes the IP numbering ne…

That's not the "cattle vs. pet" as I understand it. The servers are identical, i.e. cattle. This is just a case of sticky sessions. It's a common pattern to help latency and keep r…

This doesn't help you now, but why didn't you keep the old site and just 301'd to the new page for a year or so?

Build systems usually don't care what you added. Modification of source means rebuild.

I mean, could? Sure. They specifically claim not to though: https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/privacy

No, you also need to be able to MITM. Snooping the traffic is not enough to do harm.

That Europe cost seems high, tbh. In the Nordics for example I'm pretty sure everything is paid for.

+1. When I had to use AWS for batch workloads, which at the time at least didn't have a TTL attribute on VMs, I made sure that the VM first scheduled a shutdown in like 30 min if t…

And then have to live with asking yourself "could I have done more?"

I doubt that would be 1 and not developed using 2 followed by a "don't touch" policy, tbh

There are a few. https://github.com/tink-ab/login-service is one I wrote and open sourced when I worked at the associated company. Adding something like https://github.com/dhtech/a…

BeyondCorp is the effort/program name, ÜP is one of the software that enables it to be implemented. ÜP is just a fancy Envoy/nginx reverse proxy.

Signal is open source

Hostile APIs are a problem. If you require a dance for the correct outcome, people will fail. Make it easy to do the right thing.

I've never seen this advice, would you mind elaborating or citing a more elaborate source? Since pivot_root requires the old root to be a child of the new root, traversing back to …

You don't even need that. The BIOS can just install vulnerable SMM handlers and then you're screwed. I don't get why you say it doesn't affect you - bloated and crappy firmware aff…

Yes sure, but I question if these permissions would do anything to prevent that. It would reject an open() call on the file, but these are expected to be directories so that would …

What do the chmod do there? Removing files count as writes to the directory at least in Linux, so chmodding the dummy file wouldn't do much I'm thinking.

Search "PCIe bar space" and you should be fine

There is recurring costs as well, something like $400/mo in power usage bills, and another $400 in internet and space rental fees per month. The folks over at the datacenter have b…

Indeed, the 16 MiB virtual memory space is kind of limiting for anything remotely modern :-).
