last night I got an alert from Malwarebytes on my machine that it quarntined an extension.

Quarantined - PUP.Optional.Hijacker. C:\USERS*\APPDATA\LOCAL\GOOGLE\CHROME\USER DATA\DEFAULT\EXTENSIONS\BCJINDCCCAAGFPAPJJMAFAPMMGKKHGOA

wondered what the extension was... JSON Formatter

Just checked my single node Kafka setup which currently handles 695.27k e/s (average daily) into elasticsearch without breaking a sweat. kafka has been the only stable thing in this whole setup.

zeek -> kafka -> logstash -> elastic

Someone wrote a PHP7 script to generate some of our daily reports a while back that nobody wants to touch. Docker happily runs the PHP7 code in the container and generates the reports on any system. its portable, and it doesnt require upkeep.

I made the same bet with cloudways which is now owned by digitalocean. they filled a gap for me, and I was ok if they decided to close shop; I am glad it didn't go that direction, and they are part of a bigger company that also was once a small company, but they are now publicly traded. you make your bets...

I wish retool had two things, more granular permissions for users on team plan. right now this is reserved for enterprise. I can not simply share only specific apps to certain users.

I wish to be able to pay yearly. We are on a hosted solution.

I am a security guy by profession, the other day my wife singed up for a tesla and they ran her credit. next day we get a random call from wellsfargo regarding an auto application and wanted to verify her information. my wife confused why wellsfargo calling, did what I always ask her to do. tell the individual to provide her with the case number and she will call back and they do not need to provide her the call back number. This is easy to remember for most people and She did just that. It turned out tesla has multiple financier which tesla failed to mention that one is wellsfargo.

OP blog suggests users receiving similar email even after changing their master password. two possibilities for LP. either their servers were hacked and hashed master passwords were dumped somewhere or as LP said, system error due to a bug.

ah, had a discussion with a friend about sending money with Iran in the comments. he said his poker buddies used to donate 10% of the winning for someone to help orphans in iran. in the paypal transfer he wrote "for the good work you do in iran". his account got banned and money never got returned. later his account was reinstated but money never was returned.
