Once in a while people pay you to do something you enjoy doing, like making people cry and wish they had a jobs flipping burgers instead. But I do it on my own systems for fun, honestly.

Easy way is to implement e.g. a 4xx handler which serves content with links which generate further 4xx errors and rewrite the status code to something like 200 when sent to the requester. Load the garbage pages up with... garbage.

My reason for smacking stuff down is that I don't want to see it in my logs. That simple.

It's not that hard to dominate bots. I do it for fun, I do it for profit. Block datacenters. Run bot motels. Poison them. Lie to them. Make them have really really bad luck. Change the cost equation so that it costs them more than it c

I don't know for a fact how the machine does it based on feather shading, but I do know for a fact that there is a thing about chickens: sex linking in hybrids. When you hybridize certain pairs of breeds (e.g. reds and barred rocks) th

I apologize for the commercial plug, but when I switched off of CenturyLink and onto Ooma last year my robo / spam calls went way down. Part of that is that they have some filtering options, part of that is that I believe they provide

Ooma isn't in there (woot! that's my VOIP to DECT provider). There's a Zoom Telcom, but I don't think it's the Zoom we all know.

Very nice. My favorite definition of "blue collar vs white collar" is whether you wash your hands before or after you use the toilet. Not entirely true, but that's the gist of it.

Own a 1990-1991 motorcycle (own two actually, same model) which came from the factory with 10.5:1 compression (drive train from a different bike, they upped the displacement slightly and that also contributed to the increased compression).

I might be interested in helping implement a full-blown platform based on Robert's Rules of Order. Reach out if that's on your roadmap. Intriguing concept.

History doesn't repeat, it rhymes; and it kind of goes in phases or epochs. As Derrida was wont to point out, we show up in the middle of things, just flippantly speaking a language and carrying on as though the language was something

This is something I did as an add-on to an obscure but useful data analysis. The notion is that people are most easily influenced by people who are "like" them. So, let's say you want to talk about politics; you don't ne

I've worked in the industry at IID and Farsight. I am skeptical of many claims made by IoC vendors. You need timestamps, or first / last seen. Records don't exist in a vacuum. They come in RRsets. They are served (sometimes i

MNCs get governments to force you to buy their products. I've dealt with governments where the only way to send or receive docs was MS Word. Sometimes saving in MS Word format works (LibreOffice), sometimes not.

I have a partial answer for that. ;-) For at least some functions, iterative solutions exist which converge to correct solutions. For at least some iterative solutions the rate of convergence (the estimated error bounds) is a continuous fun

The Mandelbrot and Julia sets are the outcomes of specified functions and have a relationship with each other. But yeah I would speculate that something similar, in the way that a Mandelbrot set is self-similar, would be observed in at leas

Fun! I call C funcs from python every few months. I rarely use ctypes, preferring to use buffers / bytearrays along with pack / unpack and a little declarative module for defining python analogs of c structs or maybe some numpy. I

Sadly I mostly agree with this. File it with "the first time people get the password right tell them they failed, making them enter it a second time" and other janky but highly effective stuff.
