    Starting at page 20, the report looks like someone let AI create a HTML page and then just converted it to PDF. There are misplaced "Calendar", "Money Bag" and "Globe" emojis float…

    I recently bought something from fahrrad.de and was surprised to see Wero as an payment option. I don't know what I expected, but scanning the QR code and acknowledging the payment…

    So accidentally hacking a company is now a thing. The blog post seems to imply that the agent didn't have access to the source code of the caching proxy, which makes this even more…

    Yes, it is costing the taxpayer. However, I think there needs to be some cap, because otherwise the government can weaponize that and be extra inefficient when processing requests …

    Also with the planned changes, you have to prove that you have an legitimate interest in the information. Which makes the whole thing very vague. So the government can just say tha…

    I'm a bit salty due to what they've done to the Komoot team. Komoot was (and still is) a great app for planing your outdoor activities. After acquiring Komoot, they fired everybody…

    Also you have to remember the basics of statuspage messages: Its always just elevated error rates. Even when the error rate is elevated to 100%. "We are observing elevated error ra…

    Ah, okay. I did a Google search for that phrase before posting my comment, but couldn't find any result. Probably its not indexed yet. Thanks for the clarification. Still I think i…

    That's not what's written on the webpage. If your post is meant as a critique that they’re not offering those services, you should make that clear to avoid spreading misinformation…

    Its impressive that even though registry-1.docker.io returned 503 errors they where able to keep a the metric "Docker Registry Uptime" at 100%.

    When driving by Bad Aibling I always wondered why the BND (intelligence agency) invests so heavily in satellite communication eavesdropping. I naively assumed that this kind of com…

    That's the point he is making. QUIC has to be based on UDP because the networking stack is ossified enough to not allow the addition of any new Layer 4 protocol. It's not a huge dr…

    I don't think there should be a "correct" way to steal focus. When I'm editing a document, I don't want _any_ application to steal focus. I don't want a window to show up and steal…

    Even though there is some overlap of the European continent and Russia's territory, I don't think that Russia qualifies as an example for the average European country. Also, why ar…

    To be fair, I don't think there is anything wrong with clickable links instead of embedded images.

    I'm not sure whether Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT use different system prompts or if there's something else behind it, but Copilot tends to have this overly cautious, sterile tone…

    We've been using TimescaleDB/TigerData for over five years now and it has proven to be a reliable component of our project. We process and store hundreds of data points for a six-d…

    Since the system is hosted on Azure, I guess we are talking about an Entra ID login. So I think they set up a Conditional Access [1] that can blocks logins based on the country IP.…

    This is about the Global Administrator role. I don't believe that the employee had this role to begin with. Otherwise this quote wouldn't make sense: > [...] top-tier user privileg…
