It's not the computer that did it. Microsoft did it. Microsoft enabled random hardware with random strings in their connection protocol metadata to point to software on the internet that Windows happily downloads and installs. Strang

They can randomize (with bias for hot/recent content) entries on each page, but paginate them. FOMO will keep people clicking next even once they recognize some entries.

Putting aside the question of whether it will continue to work, even somewhat, against botnets, I find your first paragraph confusing. Reload loops, or being able to "bypass" anubis (unless you merely mean bypassing it for the tok

Anubis's default 1-week token lifetime may not be nearly enough to dissuade enough scraper networks to make a difference, particularly with the default weight->difficulty level hierarchy, but that's for individual site admins t

We're killing a lot more people than that; if we'd just tax the rich at 80% and send all that money abroad, we'd save millions more. Failure to do that is mass murder, the same as decreasing foreign aid funding; that is your

I'm not here to defend publishers or the insane current copyright terms. However, in the traditional model of publishing, publishers subsidize production of new books from unproven authors--through book advances, copyediting services,

A generation of kids have grown up with just such assigned adults, who overwhelmingly did not apply sufficient oversight to the kids' use of social media. In large part that's because, if they'd done so, the kids would'v

A law like this just passed in New York State. If this fails it'll be because the tech industry expresses disapproval too loudly to ignore. The legislators don't care about the underlying criticism. Almost no legislators have eve

Commonmark isn't serious because it doesn't include several major quality of life improvements like [^1] for footnote/reference syntax. Pandoc should be the serious "common" markdown standard.

System cron can't implement your example, so I guess what you say is technically true... EINVAL is more obvious and intuitive than <systemd calendar incantation>. Cron just can't do what you want. You keep saying systemd

by harshreality 4mo ago
I take it that your position is: cron works for me, so why migrate to another system that uses its own "weirdo" syntax. Mine is: why not migrate since they're both "weirdo" syntax, and systemd's is at least ba

I think you're talking about syntactic simplicity. Systemd requires three field separators (space, :, -) because that's how ISO8601 dates are written. That means not all fields will be space separated, which may be more challeng

I am curious whether there's a more capable system cron that supports that kind of thing. Quartz job scheduler (java), AWS, and CF obviously wouldn't qualify. I think this is only possible if you're using a heavyweight job

Obviously you can do additional time & date checking in a shell wrapping the script or binary cron ultimately runs, just as you could do the time & date checking in the script or binary itself. That's far more complex. Systemd

The first one works in that specific case, but not more generically. For example, "Last Monday in February", or "last Monday of the month" for multiple months unless they're all 30 or all 31 days.

This is like a complaint about regex syntax. It's impossible to comprehend a non-trivial regex in a second or two. However, if you know the rules, it's trivial to step through it. What's the point of complaining? There&#x

I found the systemd time spec syntax you referenced to be logical and well thought out. Cron syntax is simpler for the easy cases because cron tries to do less. It ignores years and seconds entirely, and doesn't try to adhere roughly

There was some optimism with .xxx that adult content producers would voluntarily switch over. Spoiler: almost none of them did, except for domain name availability reasons.
