I very much appreciate the sentiment - and agree that random crap (particularly some of the insane dependency chains that you get from NPM, but also Rust) in which you go to install a simple (at least you believe) package - and the Rust&#x2

All of them (well - no HPUX in 15+ years, and I've never used uv in Solaris, or AIX) - but the major two client side environments that I use 'uv' in would be WSL2+Ubuntu/ext4 (work) and macOS/APFS at home. But - n

I've used python for roughly 15 years, and 10 of those years I was paid to primarily write and maintain projects written in Python. Things got bearable with virtualenv/virtualenv wrappers, but it was never what I would call grea

I'm thoroughly enjoying this thread by the way, between someone who is clearly informed and educated in platform research, and pretty enthusiastic and interested in the field, and yourself - an deeply experienced engineer with truly

Up to roughly 100 bills it's pretty much bang on - even with a cheap $10 scale (American Weigh Scales Digital Pocket Scale has a bunch of different options). Each bill weights roughly 1 gram. So - accurate to within 1% - and presuma

I think it goes without saying that ones the systems are reliable, fully-autonomous weapons will be unleashed on the battlefield. But they have to have safeguards to ensure that they don't turn on friendly forces and only kill the ene

$30k/year? For 100 Employees. So - $25/seat? I can't imagine it would ever be worth, under any scenario, trying to write/build/support any $25/seat SaaS software for any company I've worked at in 25

In the case of IPv4 - you almost certainly would get the external IP address of the unit doing NAT translation. In the case of IPv6 - it's quite common (outside of the enterprise world) for the Native IPv6 address of the device to be

by ghshephard 9mo ago
NAT66 doesn't add much in the way of security here, because the external address is fully routable and maps 1:1 to the internal address. You are once again fully dependent on a correctly configured firewall. The IPv6 address that I s

In these contexts - neither of the addresses was intended for internet consumption. A misconfigured firewall exposes you in the case of IPv6 routable addresses, and is less relevant in the case of IPv4; the ULA IPv6 address is roughly the

Well - I can't say they have always said this - but at least for Circa 1998 CCNP onwards that's been their position. The instructors were very adamant - to the point that I'm recalling this 27+ years later.

by ghshephard 9mo ago
Just to nitpick a bit. What people typically mean when they say "IPV4 NAT" is Network and Port translation. My 192.168.0.1 internally becomes 172.217.12.100 and my port gets converted to something that is tracked so that the r

This is the first thing that as a Network Engineer I was taught - and every formal security class I've taken (typically from Cisco - they have awesome course) - repeats the same thing. I believe the common knowledge is somewhat more nu

One of the major problems with this theory is that "cup" doesn't have any standard definition - and measuring scoops marked as "1 cup" - can be anywhere (ignoring outliers) from 240, 236.6 or 227 ml. So - ignoring

It has an optional battery. This could be pretty epic for a glasses interface.

Would that not break every other firmware release that relied on that older key?

I'm pretty sure the primary purpose of the $1000 is just to create some small gate to avoid overloading reviewers/ACM. There are probably other mechanisms that could be used - such as having "recommendations" for from

It's kind of in User Space though - right? When an application opens a socket - it decides whether to open it with TCP_NODELAY or not. There isn't any kernel/os setting - it's done on a socket by socket basis, no?
