What if I need, say, to find the 10 IPs that make the most requests? With the Apache log format, I can write the following in about 15 seconds: cut -d ' ' -f1 log | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head Say you need to follow accesses to

Is there an equivalent CLI tool? (Preprocess a tree of files, possibly keep it in RAM as a daemon, and answer queries in realtime.)

It might not be that easy. A lot of WiFi drivers in the kernel today don't support MAC address change.

They probably have the same methods as any other pastebin: block IPs which send an unreasonable quantity of data.

The problem is not that more evidence is being produced. The problem is that the new evidence tends to be concentrated in the hands of a very small number of companies.

The article seems to assume that a declining market share means that Firefox is going to "die" and that you should start switching. This might make sense for a company, but not that much for an open source project. Firefox could stay very h

An interesting idea. Bitcoin seemed secure at first because it seemed silly to think that an individual user could hold >50% of the total processing power of the network, but now that miners are assembling in mining pools, the risk of a

Just a small detail, but the license is Creative Commons BY-NC-SA, so this is not really open source (not OSI-compliant).

Great project, but notice that the license is CC-BY-NC, which is neither FSF-compliant nor OSI-compliant because it fobids commercial use of the work. https://github.com/ornicar/lichess/blob/master/LICENSE Interestingly, the license used

There is a hack that you can put in your ssh config file to be able to write ssh gateway%host and have it transparently perfom the hop. See http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3545370

Yes, I know that Gmail has some keyboard shortcuts. I'm also aware that you can even customize them to some extent, but the flexibility has nothing to do with mutt's. To give a concrete example, I am moderating some institution's mailing li

Setting the privacy and security issues aside, I wonder why do so many self-respecting hackers use the Gmail web interface (instead of, say, fetching their mail via IMAP and use another client). Dedicated mail clients like mutt can be much

Note that this tutorial is intended for the x86 architecture and for older versions of Bochs. If you're running an amd64 system or using a recent Bochs, you will need to tweak stuff in the Makefile and in bochsrc.txt.
