In OS X, I always map cmd-q to the system-wide accessibility feature for zoom in. Then change the zoom factor to 0x. It effectively neuters cmd-q.

You can pierce the corporate veil if there is willfull and intentional fraud. Doesn't always happen, but it's possible.

That was my first thought, too. It's the Network Computer again!

To be honest, the street smart investors will get in there soon. With all of the scrutiny, the following loan offerings will be their most by the numbers yet. At least that's how typical scandal clean ups happen.

They're stock grants not stock options. They're worth something even if the stock goes down (except to 0).

This. It's almost all this. Even worse, these politicians and bureaucrats are later nominated by the machine for higher office. Where they try to screw things up on a grander scale (and only face opposition on the federal level). This

You can tunnel inside almost any protocol. That's not a great reason. Valid, sure; good, no.

What does blocking ICMP get you? (other than a broken network) Blocking ICMP fragments is fine if you are worried about DDoS attacks, but don't blanket block everything ICMP (especially ICMPv6). Just curious as to what problem you are

Well they have raised over $190M, and I don't see them spending it on marketing like Wix, Squarespace, Weebly, and GoDaddy. At least I haven't seen any ads or anything. Maybe this is their marketing budget?

What you're talking about works OK in a single colo or datacenter model, but it doesn't map to the PoP model. It's the PoP model that's driving them to do this. In their PoPs they've got local peers and exchanges th

Yep, FCP's successor is Miro. I haven't had a chance to look into it, but their sales people claim it's all new. Noction has pretty much taken over the entire market. Overall their product is good, but the Internet game has c

He was referring to Fastly customers' route preference, and that's what I responded to. Fastly doesn't expose any (network) routing options to their customers.

Routes aren't exposed to customers as a configurable option. At least not at my pay grade with them.

I've run Arista for 10 years now (since Arastra days), but I'm a lot more interested in whitebox switches running some sort of open networking software. The silicon designs are all coming from Broadcom/Intel/etc. This is

I didn't see him in the room, so that doesn't mean he wasn't there, but it sounds like Artur was paying attention to Dave Temkin's talk at NANOG (from Netlix). Slides: https://www.nanog.org/sites/def

I'm also really confused as to why they insisted on taking full tables at their edge if they also built their own route optimization technology. It seems like it would be much simpler and faster if they just took a default route from

I wait until it's around 12-13 personally. During QE it can hang out around 10.

I didn't say they had to be naked. I almost always trade spreads. Naked options tend to be for casino individuals. Also, selling naked puts against the VIX is a good long hedge. It's not going to 0 and when it gets really, really

Gotta make another trade to neutralize that theta component like a calendar spread. For situations where you're making a bet on a really really big move, ratio spreads are the best.

I like Postgresql, but it's far from superior to MySQL from an ops monitoring point of view. MySQL exposes a lot more information and run-time stats than Postgresql does. Simple things in MySQL are also impossible in Postgresql. How do

Yes, it is a misuse of a TCP reset. The RFCs are very clear about when to use a TCP reset. You can't use a reset just because you want to be fast or don't feel like sending any more data. Resets are for something abnormal happenin

nginx is also resetting the connection instead of closing it. That's also a bug (separately). The use of a TCP reset here violates RFC and Postel's robustness maxim. Be liberal on what you accept and be conservative in what you se

Slow reads are not a great attack vector on modern OS releases. Slow requests (like slowloris) were much more effective.

by scurvy 10y ago
I really wish people would stop misusing TCP resets. It's not just a fast way to close a connection. That's not what it's for at all. If you're ever thinking about sending a reset, please read RFC 793 and RFC 3360 firs

So neither system can take care of all the people all the time? That was my point. It's time to stop pontificating that one approach is the only approach.

I don't have an agenda, that's my point. I'm saying it's time for certain people to stop pushing theirs. OK, I have an anti-agenda agenda.
