00:00 : to begin with, we see (and hear) AAA fire in the sky, by dint of tracer rounds. I wondered why, given its all radar guided. My cousin (former Captain in the UK army) tells me standard ammo boxing has one round in five being tracer.

In Postgres, roles replaced users and groups (both become roles). Roles in Redshift do not replace users or groups, but exist alongside them, as a third, separate, first-class type. Roles, like groups, can be granted privileges, but roles,

So, in the early days of the ARRP site I published a dump of the system tables, on a per-Redshift version basis. The code which produced the dump was ditzy - it just produced the pages which were uploaded. Back in about May 2022, I rewrote

I'm staggered this esoteric post about a niche database has made it to five points! Also though a very nice photo of melted dark hot chocolate in the blog post immediately after :-) Ukraine -> best bananas I've ever had, and s

Thankyou for this. Presents the matter in a simple, clear manner, providing clarity.

I'd actually not heard of HIDS before, so now I'm aware of them, I can look into them when there's a good moment to Google a bit. All part of that learning curve :-)

Yes - this articulates my expectation of a VPN client. DNS should be modified when and only when it is running. That is not the case here.

I'm not that strong a user, I'm afraid. Just an ordinary person, living in fear of VPN clients :-)

Yes. It's my laptop; no one else touched it.

It's not that the change is or is not necessary; it's that it is silent and permanent. We must also note that change interfered with the existing system configuration, by rendering one of the existing DNS servers unusable.

Ha :-) Well, I run Tor on my system, and all traffic goes through that; all other outbound traffic is blocked. Tor provide DNS, so all I ever do with resolv.conf is point it at localhost and that's it.

Bloody good idea.

And I've just noticed the formatting for the resolv.conf file is buggered, and it's too late to edit =-) nameserver [German company DNS IP #1] nameserver [German company DNS IP #2] nameserver 127.0.0.1 nameserver ::1 search [an IP

That I did not know it had happened, as it was a silent change (and indeed, a change which survived uninstallation of the VPN). So in the end, when I stumbled across it, I did change it back - but I had a malformed DNS config for the months

I opened the ticket, received a request for the product serial number - which I did not have, being only an end user - and after that, never heard from them again. I have replied to their auto-emails, and to the chap who asked for the seria

My apologies. To me, "work" means a permanent, full-time job, and freelance is pretty much everything else, so you can understand how I interpreted the instructions.

2.10am, couple more explosions going off. Time to put the ear-plugs in and get some sleep. Night all!

Actually, I did see one firework - a little red flare, someone hand threw it out from their apartment window, about 20 floors up :-) About 10 minutes after midnight, there were broad, flicking flashes of light from the north, which were in

You're not wrong - I've actually been coding all day and now for my first Amazon Redshift management product, to get it out to the first two test customers in the next two or so days; all the money it makes is going to the Ukraini

Happy new year from Kyiv :-) 00:30, air raid sirens went off, and more explosions. Looks like a country-wide alarm is in place right now.

Yes. This happened to me. I made an account, not using a phone number. I then did not use it, for something like a month. I posted - and the account was suspended, I was emailed, "you have violated our T&C, please provide your phon

Addendum. 1. I did not write what I mean, to say the account is new : I mean to say, it has sprung into life, for this thread. Farm accounts can be brand new, and many are, but you also find accounts which have been around for a long time,

I may be wrong, but to my eye, China has a direct interest in Russia being successful in its invasion of Ukraine : the invasion of Taiwan. China is and has been - as Russia did, prior to its invasion - massively expanding its armed forces.
