It’s the next thing on my list of things to write — and related to a very weird security vulnerability I’ve found in a lot of corporate workflows — so, it should be done sometime this month.
- exikyut 5y ago!! I opened https://numair.com https://numair.com in a new tab so I could stumble on it in a bit (figuring this info would turn up there), only to discover a parking page (and TLS cert Chrome did not like). Double-checked the spelling twice. Is it just an email domain? Where can I eventually read about this? Very idly curious :)
- numair 5y agoYikes, sorry — this is one of those domains that got registered in the InterNIC days and transferred off years later, so I never bothered to move the A record to an IP that doesn’t use an obnoxious parking page. I’ll add that to the to-do list. It is very much email-only at this point. I’ll probably publish the paper on my company website, once that’s up — having a bit of an identity crisis at the moment to figure out whether everything gets done in English, or Japanese, or both — probably both...
- exikyut 5y agoAh, I see! Very cool. (And also cool to learn that domains showing parking pages can send/receive legitimate email. I would never have expected that!) It would make a lot of sense to translate to Japanese if the issue is Japan-specific, but I can also see good justifications in simply releasing papers in all the languages :). That being said, if I had to pick a language to prioritize, well, it'd be the language with the widest security audience. Yep. Look forward to seeing the paper :) (thanks for the email)
