In France, thanks to STIR/SHAKEN, this is not possible any more for the fixed phone numbering plans (and telemarketers have to register their phone numbers in a subset of this numb…

After 27" 4K OLED last year, I suppose 24" are next! I didn't have the patience to wait and I have migrated to 27" 4k OLED (Alienware).

I have switched from FVWM to awesome because of Lua. Many years later, I have switched to i3 because it's not using a programming language for configuration. It's fine to have a co…

It's easy to disprove. This website is not behind CF. Also: https://backlinko.com/cloudflare-users .

I don't think CF is that much present, but yes, the situation is dire.

I have also restored the very first articles I wrote in the 90s when I was young https://vincent.bernat.ch/en/blog/2026-old-web-articles >. At the time, they were not "great," but …

I often run a linkchecker on my blog and substitute broken URL with links to the Wayback machine. Unfortunately, this is becoming quite difficult to detect broken URL as everybody …

Biking is not meant to replace everything. More people biking means more room for people that cannot bike. Bike-heavy cities like Amsterdam show that most of your "facts" are incor…

It already does. With IPv6, you don't go through some CGNAT box, that could misbehave or just break (and since the biggest chunk of content is available through IPv6, this may not …

6rd will soon get away to get native IPv6 instead. Also, 6rd is what allowed France to lead IPv6 deployment.

Unrelated, the Emacs-based design of the website is quite nice.

Isn't this line incorrect? BB == b > 1 /\ b' = b - 2 /\ w' = w + 1 \* Picked 2 black It should b > 2, otherwise you'll get in an invalid state.

I don't understand why Cloudflare got unrestricted access while Daniel Stenberg got Mythos run by a third party on cURL and only got a report. Well, I understand, but I may be wron…

nginx had this defect for a long time too!

I find this fascinating. I also like to customize my desktop experience with my own code, but it's more assembling stuff with some additional code as glue. A word of warning: a rel…

I've switched to GitHub from Trac because of spam. Despite using Akismet and bayesian filters, on a small instance, there were still several spam tickets if you didn't require an a…

Did you check on https://cartefibre.arcep.fr/ ? If your address is there, you will know the status of your address and notably the infrastructure operator, which has the obligation…

In reality, this does not happen that way. If a path already exists, you can pay to use the same duct (unless it's full) to install your own fibers. At least, it works this way in …
