From memory, it was for Joint Academic Network. I'm surprised the Wikipedia article doesn't mention it at all, but it seems hard to find an authoritative source.

A handful of peanuts a day to avoid dying in the event of (accidental, inadvertent) exposure sounds like a pretty good deal! I think that's the value here: > "It's a wonderful feel…

It costs money to serve S3 objects out to the internet though. S3 GET request billing + the usual AWS egress fees, after you've burned through the free quotas. Egress is currently …

It seems like a good move. The Tao was a big single document with heavyweight edit/revision burden, which probably made more sense when it was updated by publishing a new RFC, as i…

My favourite aspect of this story is how the academics, being academics, took it upon themselves to characterise the problem in detail before telling the postmaster about it. Could…

You can also find the 'GitHub version' (which I'd guess is where distributions get their versions from) at https://github.com/imapsync/imapsync . I used this for an uncomplicated t…

(All that said, embedded systems sometimes don't have virtual memory, so the original problem stated in the link is just not a thing...) > working from a fixed-size pool or arena c…

That's right - some "safe" coding standards like MISRA C go as far as forbidding use of malloc() without explicit justification. If you still need dynamic allocation, you might cho…

Worth knowing that are two "nmigen"s nowadays - the one originated in M-Labs and one under a project also called nmigen: https://github.com/nmigen/nmigen It's a fork, made for reas…

Whenever law enforcement snags a "major haul", be it illicit cash or substances or arms or anything else, I guess I focus on its physical size as the thing that makes it impressive…

Crash testing will be part of a wider testing plan. The logic there is that you have shown all the tests to pass using that particular hardware+software configuration. Only that co…
