Could you have used ssh? It might have been as easy as using nftp to upload a new /root/.ssh/authorized_keys file. Or not, depending on how they have ssh configured.

To be clear, I'm not defending it, just describing it. I was at the IETF meetings where all this was being discussed and remember thinking it would never work. When people tell me ipv6 is already widely used, I ask them what name I sho

The original idea was that configuration would be so automatic that humans would never see the addresses. Instead of an admin assigning a name and IP address to each host, the admin would only assign the name. The host would figure out its

I recently took a bus over the Andes and was congratulating myself on choosing a seat on the shady side. Then I realized that in the southern hemisphere the sun is in the north and I had outsmarted myself.

Unfortunate wording here: "The cable was laid on the seabed using a custom-made vessel The Leonardo Da Vinci which was then buried using Asso trenchers."

I think he should have credited Tom Van Vleck with the "three questions" idea. It was published in ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, vol 14 no 5 July 1989, pages 62-63, and you can read the whole thing here: https:/&#x

My father was called for jury duty a few years ago. The case depended on some physics, something about the angles and momentum in a car crash. My father was disqualified, because he's a physics teacher and may have been tempted to inte

I don't know anything about Polish law either, but in the US, copyright law (DMCA in particular) makes it illegal to modify the software in a device you own, if it requires circumventing protection code or devices. Which it probably wo

70% of 225 kWh is 158 kWh. To transfer that much in 20 minutes would require 473 kW. The latest supercharger is rated at 250 kW, which is the limit for a 400 volt battery. So I'm going to say it would require a 800 volt battery and 500

Where I live, in Mexico, cell tower time is useless. I sync my phone manually to my laptop every few days. I wish I had some way to sync the phone to GPS automatically. There is probably an app for that.

They don't even include the marginal query costs. It's just the cost of sending the data to the user's web browser. And it appears to assume the data is served over a mobile phone network.

There were several application protocols in use at the time of the TCP cutover (1981?), including ftp and telnet. We didn't just throw them away, we ported them over from TCP's predecessor NCP. The one we did throw away was email,

I'm disappointed this article repeats the misconception that ADA mandates removing non-conforming curb ramps. It does not. In fact it prohibits removing curb ramps on the grounds of non-compliance. Some interpretations of ADA require r

I hate that graph. Not only is it not zero-based, a common mistake made by amateurs and people trying to mislead, but you can't even tell where zero is, even though the author of the graph clearly must know. They tell us in the text th

If it were me, I would pull the fuse, then jumper the block over to a different fuse on a circuit that is off when the ignition is off. Then you never have to think about it again.

I was involved in the IETF in the 1990s and had a good friend who was one of the architects of SIP. I was not involved in SIP myself but marveled at how complicated the protocol was. I believe RFC 2543 (SIP) was at the time the longest RFC

The codes were five digits, and transmitted as FM dial pulses on 600 and 1500 cycles. The receiver had a toothed ratchet wheel with five pins that would follow the dial pulses. It was entirely electromechanical.

You have to be careful drawing conclusions about output buffering when you're using this kind of stdout redirection tool. The stdio library changes its buffering behavior depending on what stdout is connected to. For example, if stdout
