There's a huge difference between "manufacturer recommended updates, but airline waited until the last week to apply them" and "manufacturer didn't even acknowledge the issue" in terms of who the chorus is goin

I imagine it could help with Airbus marketing. "We take proactive measures, whereas our competitor only takes action after multiple fatal crashes!"

And it doesn't even need to be government regulation. The hospitality industry has self-imposed standards as to what kind of amenities a facility should have in order to rate as a two-star hotel, three-star hotel, etc. Things like TV

Yes, and that lateral movement is very important since the debris seems to have caused at least one other engine to the right to fail as well.

PHP is a reasonable choice if you care about writing something that will still work out of the box 10 years from now. But of course this assumes that you work with a team that can see a year ahead, let alone 10.

Vinalon is an organic polymer, like many other synthetic fibers we wear, but derived from coal instead of oil because North Korea has no oil. The basalt fiber OP describes is not organic at all. It sounds more like asbestos actually.

If it were my forum, I would just strip out any links to the honeypot URL. I have full control over who can post links to what URL, after all. You could use a URL shortener to bypass the ban, but then you'll be caught by the cross-orig

How does a server tell an agent acting on behalf of a real person from the unwashed masses of scrapers? Do agents send a special header or token that other scrapers can't easily copy? They get lumped together because they're more

If a legit user accesses the link through an <img> tag, the browser will send some telling headers. Accept: image/..., Sec-Fetch-Dest: image, etc. You can also ignore requests with cross-origin referrers. Most LLM crawlers set th

nginx also has "return 444", a special code that makes it drop the connection altogether. This is quite useful if you don't even want to waste any bandwidth serving an error page. You have an image on your error page, which s

The goal is not to filter out LLMs. The goal is to find and fix legitimate issues with my open-source software. I don't care if a human is feeding my questions to an LLM or an undead dog as long as they produce a decent signal. If the

I have a simple rule: whenever I receive an issue or PR from an unfamiliar account, I skim the text and/or code and post 1-2 quick questions. If the submitter responds intelligently, then the issue warrants a more in-depth investigatio

Chrome devtools allow you to simulate low network and CPU performance, but I'm not aware of any setting that gives you pixelated text and washed-out colors. Maybe that will make a useful plugin, if you can accurately reproduce what Mi

Not only bandwidth but also latency can vary dramatically depending on where you are. Some of your guests might have been trying to connect to a VPN that tunnels all their traffic halfway around the world. That's much, much worse than

A fully loaded plane is extremely likely to turn into a fireball if it hits anything on the ground, even at 30mph. It's just a thin shell of aluminum with tons of fuel sloshing inside.

The ramp will need to be very long and very high in order to absorb the momentum of a fully loaded widebody jet. Not something that you'd want near a runway where planes can land in either direction.

Wouldn't that "fix" make the problem worse on the whole, by making transactions hold onto write locks longer than necessary? (Not trying to disagree, just curious about potential downsides.)

Linear founders had "savings" from previous exits. Some of the early ones really were ramen-scale from what I can tell. So that's one way to come up with the capital you need. Start something, grow it, sell it for $$, and inv

You don't need a trust fund to keep a small team eating ramen for a year. Lots of people start businesses with just their savings and maybe a small loan. Maybe that's not the kind of company you'd like to build, but if it&#x2

Occasionally fetching a link will probably go unnoticed. If your antivirus software hammers the same website several times a second for hours on end, in a way that is indistinguishable from an "AI crawler", then maybe it's re

That's the beauty of VMs. Luckily, Amazon is far from the only VM provider out there, so this discussion doesn't need to be polarized between "AWS everything" and "on-premise everything". You can rent VMs elsew
