You can use capacitive water sensors taped to the outside of non-capacitive containers (aluminum foil, a resistor, an arduino, and a plastic 5 gallon container), but honestly all y…

> Of course, make your app in Rails with people that have no clue about architecture... So you're a front-end guy?

Do you know that Microsoft Bing maps also "steals" the OSM data? They did some very clever "reverse stealing" as well when they contributed back to the project by providing million…

This! All of the companies kept shortening their dopamine cycle to compete with each other and now people can’t focus in real life for more than 5-10 seconds before they are mental…

You should drop down a few layers on the OSI model and catch this at your reverse proxy instead of publishing login pages to catch every permutation of 'wp' in urls.

All soil moisture sensors will eventually become uncalibrated, wear out, or fail. The only automation you need to keep a plant alive is a timer attached to a water source. Also, do…

I refused to reward Google with traffic on their newly forced ads for every youtube video. You should boycott them too until they U-turn on this bad decision.

You tell me.

Totally agree. I’m thinking in terms and concepts like “iptables”, “ipset”, “fail2ban”, “cidr”, “asn”… while everyone else is thinking about how to change their cloudflare settings…

You are 100% correct! They have been scamming BILLIONS of dollars from the world for a decade. "Uber's Operating Losses Piled Up to $12 BILLION since 2014" (source is from 2018) ht…

When a selenium worker is attached to a pay-for-solution captcha service the infinite loop of captchas that can be solved but don't provide access would be meant to drain you finan…

I played with the HTTP/2.0 only protection a while back but had legit users complain that the site wouldn't load (they were running old browsers). How did you set up LUA scripting …

Cloudflare provides products that protect against malicious requests. They don't help craft those requests, and they don't flood traffic to websites that aren't using their product…

> Seeing that over 90% of my traffic load was malicious and abusive was frustrating. That story nailed it. > If you’re curious, Cloudflare did pay me for the site. We made a deal f…

If you expose a web server to the internet today you'll get 10 malicious requests for every 1 legitimate request. This constant and unrelenting beating at your doors doesn't go awa…

Anyone who monitors their web traffic would tell you the bots are ruining the web. I hate these "are you human" checks too, but when a persistent threat is poking your defenses and…

Who tf cares? This article with the sections "Why I'm Right", "Why You're Wrong", and "Conclusion" is the perfect blogspam I'd expect from Viget. You guys don't have anything of va…

I already have a docker registry too, so I guess I missed the point of your entire article. You can use the registry as a cache for build artifacts... that's what it's for. Your ar…

There are legions of people who swore off anything M$ years ago when they found alternatives that worked better for them, and they stuck to it. Here's the perspective from the outs…
