Some great memories here.

Somewhere in my parents attic is my RISC PC 600 and 486 Co-Processor card. Not sure if they also have the A3000 we had before that.

Looking for places that are good for small team off/onsites for companies that work remotely is a good solution to this problem. In general more of those spaces would help those groups too!

Been there, done that ;) tis a gem of a pub

The Mythical Man Month - important lessons for any developer

Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life - A really good read on how to write which is applicable to everyone who needs to communicate well

Producing Open Source Software - This is such an in depth book into everything you need to consider when working “in public”

Oh my, the memories (or lack there of)

@dang This seems to be an ad laden rehash of https://www.theregister.com/2022/06/21/risc_os_35/

Yes. The technology that made up o2 powers p2 now.

The previous version was a theme and is still available - https://wordpress.org/themes/p2/

This version is also a theme and will be released for self hosting in future too.

This is pretty cool.

It might be work stopping the browser 'loading' itself inception style with some kind of blacklisting of loadable urls - I assume you already have something to protect against SSRF type attacks on the platform itself.

WordPress.com uses it - https://transparency.automattic.com/country-block-list-augus...

Based on DNS history for the domain it looks like it was https://twitter.com/nephoscale | http://nephoscale.com/

Wolfenstein, the game whose textures are being generated by this, was set in World War II Germany.

What do you mean by the 1700 in the phrase "1700 is the GB of RAM"

It looks like the 1700 is the Cache size for the command to use in MiB of ram - https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql#usage

<cache size> is about 75% of memory in MiB, to a maximum of about 30000. Additional RAM will not be used.

dang: can we change the url to https://www.exoscale.ch/syslog/2016/07/11/elk-docker/ which is the actual post

I _think_ you can get away with not selling ever at full price if your comparison price is the manufactures RRP.

You can't do this for "bespoke" products which is where the UK law seems to most hit businesses - things like furniture which are specific to the retailer.

Of course the $1200 candy bar price is never the RRP :)

FYI - Your https link generates a cert error because node.green is being served with the www.github.com ssl cert.

Some of the original discussions around the status code referred to proxies but adoption at the moment seems to be mostly but hosting platforms like github, wordpress.com [1] etc.

I think the original ideal scenario was that a 451 would be generated by the in-country blocks that get put in place by ISPs due to legal requests from organisations.

However, they aren't incentivised to do this as much as hosting platforms are and so I don't think we will see large adoption there.

Instead, hosting platforms are using the status code both for DMCAs and other legal requests where the content may only be blocked for certain countries as part of a pragmatic response that keeps the rest of the service up in those countries (In country blocks are usually overly heavy handed :)).

Previously: https://blog.shodan.io/dont-be-clever/

For example, you might know that Shodan crawls the Internet for industrial control systems (ICS). One of the most popular protocols in ICS is called Modbus that runs on port 502. At the moment, there are about 17,000 devices listening to Modbus on the default port. It turns out there are also 700 devices listening on port 503, again a one-off sort of situation.

Probably over 20k by now

Also, for the particular case of MODBUS over TCP, MODBUS itself doesn't have any security aspect (by design) it is a very simple byte read/write protocol really.

http://www.modbus.org/docs/Modbus_Application_Protocol_V1_1b...

This is the unfortunate outcome of a bunch of factors.

OEMs moving to XXX over TCP protocols which have zero security by default and documenting this in the datasheets.

VAR installers switching to the newer products because CAT5 cable is cheaper and easier to pull than what they used to use.

The previous solution was just as insecure but harder to hack because you needed more specialised equipment.

I'm not sure how we are going to fix this without getting the OEM industry and the industry bodies behind xxx over TCP to understand that they need to bake a security model in.

The benchmarks also appear to compare to nginx v1.1.12 which is from 2011, not the latest nginx

The CapEx versus OpEx game doesn't make as much difference with depreciating assets because you balance the initial expense against the asset value you are depreciating and so you spread the cost in your P&L over the time it takes to depreciate the value down to 0. So the balance between OpEx and CapEx is more which is better value for the business.

Appreciating assets like building of course have a different affect on the P&L, but then so do the loans you take out to finance them.
