This is something that freaks me out about modern tech. Failure rates might be low, but a failure could be catastrophic for the person impacted. I remember seeing something similar in Ubiquiti's UniFi forum a few years back. Their WA

Can you explain this more? I always thought writes were by the page and erases were by the block, so the scenario you're describing would only be likely with TRIM disabled and an awful garbage collection algorithm. I could be wrong th

I have the same question here. How do you only have 45 power on hours in 80 days? Does anyone know why power on hours seem to be under reported so often?

How do you only have 558 PoH with ~900 days of daily use? Do you only use it for 30m per day? Here's a 512GB WD Black from my home lab server. It runs ~10 super light usage VMs with Docker stacks that include 2 GitLab instances, 2 Gi

Charge annually? I use Zoho for email because of their $12/year/user lite usage plan. There's no way I'd pay for MS365 or Google Workplace given my usage. I also have an MXRoute account, historio.us, etc. where the re

I think having massive, mainstream social media sites acting as onboarding for lunacy is a major contributing factor. Competitors trying to capitalize on the fringes wouldn't have a viable market to capture if Facebook et al wouldn&#x

My general reaction to that is "tough luck!" If a site algorithmically generated recipes, but accidentally created recipes that poison people once in a while we'd ban those algorithms without thought or, at the very least, m

I wouldn't say that Twitter is in my good graces, just that I think Facebook is worse. I don't have any empirical data to back that up, so it's just a general assessment from watching the industry. In my mind, Facebook pion

I want to point out there really are two sides to Section 230. On one hand, it's absolutely crucial to have it if we want most of the online communications tools we've become accustomed to to exist. On the other hand I think som

I looked through the product listings a bit (I mentioned it elsewhere) and they look reasonable for things I've researched lately. I hope it works out for you because there's a huge lack of trustworthy product data and massive am

I think this is right. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but the site felt a bit "meh" to me even though I like the concept. I like the simple design, but if there were ever a case to be made for a floating header that

I think reviews, especially something honest like the site in this article is aspiring towards, might be an ok market because the quality of those sites has declined so much in the last decade that I think there's room for a much bette

I'm not really sure what to think of that site. I think it's above average for an affiliate marketing site, but I also wonder how reliable the recommendations are if they're derived from automated analysis of other systems l

No. It'll be a token.

by ryan29 6y ago
This is very likely the case. Check the IP on a site that does IP reputation scoring [1]. They probably don't have a database of "bad" addresses for IPv6, so it squeaks by for now. I'm sure that'll change in the

I’ve been trying to find an example of someone having a domain reclassified to premium while it’s registered and haven’t been able to. I think that would signal the end of that TLD. I know I’d never buy one after hearing about that.

Any idea why .info is blocked? I always considered it to be ok since it’s an ogTLD.

by ryan29 6y ago
> Are there any "safe" gTLDs AFAIK there are zero guarantees. I think .com might have some pricing obligations, but all the good .coms are taken. Don’t rely on ICANN. They’ve proven they don’t care about registrants with the .

Donuts is a registry. Porkbun is only a registrar, right?

That's awesome! The thing that would make it valuable to me would be to send links to friends or family that have never heard of Cloudflare. If it got tied into Cloudflare Teams or something that added even the tiniest bit of frictio

I think it would be extremely useful to have some type of simple authentication system for the preview URLs. I think the One-Time Pin Login [1] available with Cloudflare Access would be a really great fit if I could drive it from a list of

Those aren't even close to the same thing though. One is illegal and the other, selling to a company like Zerodium, isn't. The ethical objection I have is that you lose control over how that exploit is used if you sell it to som

Yeah. This is how it should work IMO. Have a trustworthy organization that confirms bugs, but doesn’t require disclosure before payment. Let researchers place a value on their own work via a “buy it now” option and let organizations nego

I consider myself an ethical person and I’d have a tough time ignoring the potential for $1 million dollars. After taxes I could buy a really nice house for cash and have enough money left over to drive a new car for the rest of my life. O

I’m pretty sure their App Store has a 5-6 year old bug where kids are prompted to use their (child) PIN to authorize purchases instead of a parent’s PIN. I haven’t tested it in a long time though. I tried to make a video demonstrating it a

Thanks for those links. I'm commenting so I can read them later :-)

I was thinking about doing the same recently. The big thing I wanted to test was the way they hide Worker spin up in the latency of the TLS negotiation.
