Are there any mitigations in recent JVMs? I tried reproducing this, and got the POC to hit the LDAP server, but it wouldn't load the test payload. See also: - https://github.com/tangxiaofeng7/apache-log4j-poc - h

I can't remember seeing problems be more strongly worded than "Increased Error Rates" or "high error rates with S3 in us-east-1" during the infamous S3 outage of 2017 - and that was after they struggled to even upda

That's a pretty reasonable approach, and similar in spirit to what I find to work well: - Create a template with necessary extensions, or just install them to "template1" which is the template if you don't explicitly spe

E-trade: Your password can’t be >32 chars. Their 2FA TOTP gets concatenated to the end of your password. Got a >26 char password? You’ll be locked out after enabling 2FA. No worries, though, you just call support, provide your email,

Yep! A lot of older posts about CTEs largely advice against them for this reason. Postgres 12 introduced controllable materialization behaviour: https://paquier.xyz/postgresql-2/postgres-12-with-materializ... By defaul

Regarding "Match Against Multiple Patterns", the examples are about finding the _suffixes_ of something, email domains in the example. An attempt to find a suffix like that will not be able to use an index, whereas creating a func

They're cool, but keep in mind that this often means you cannot run them on managed Postgres services.

Two things that aren't exactly lesser-known, but that I wish more used continuously as part of development: - generate_series(): While not the best to make _realistic_ test data for proper load testing, at least it's easy to make

Thanks for the background :) Lock behaviour of migrations are indeed very important to be aware of. Braintree (which are heavy Postgres users) have a pretty good post on that - https://medium.com/paypal-tech/postgresql-

Kudos for being open about your mistakes. Could you share a little bit about what your thought process was in general when picking a database technology? You call out "easy migrations and database branches" outweighing other quirk

Happy to be unvisionary on this one, but the change log I wish for the next major release is this one: - We changed nothing, but spent most our time on Bluetooth reliability, and remaining time on general reliability. That’d meaningfully im

"relevancy" is often scoped to the _textual_ relevancy of matching documents, where things like boosting matches in the title vs. the body and tf/idf scores of the involved terms matter a lot. In practice, a lot of relevancy

I'm glad SSRF is getting more attention. It's incredibly potent, especially in cloud/k8s/micro services eras. Some good examples: - From screenshot service to Kubernetes account takeover at Shopify: https://ha

Their initial post blamed the problem on “human error”, an anti-pattern in getting to the root cause of things. This post attempts to blame their CDN vendor. “All these reviewers couldn’t spot it.”
