Without knowing exactly how the compromised account is set up, and what access is granted, it may be difficult to say. At "security focused large telecom" I am aware of, you would be surprised what level of tech has access to what

Lumen (merger of Level3 and CenturyLink) sells services to a large part of the Internet and may provide a lot of the backhaul for Windstream. In which case they would be in the path for monitoring.

It's difficult to find any good reasoning in this piece, nor in the other article she wrote, that she mentioned. The author's "tee hee I watched some old teen movies and that is the extent of my research" attitude shows

Funny fact: Motorola didn't ship 68040 CPUs over 40Mhz because they didn't think customers would tolerate even a small heat sink and fan combination being required for the chip. *looks at massive heat sink and fan on my desktop sy

An interesting cross reference might be to Futurama, which apparently has a lot of math majors among the writers of the show: https://cs.appstate.edu/sjg/futurama/degrees.html

The Toyota Hilux and the Hilux derived "Champ" (starts at about $13K USD) are not allowed in the USA, but other countries do buy them. The "Chicken Tax" and other measures keep them from being sold in the USA. Instead,

Uh, weather is not predictable, which explains SFTW. The article talks about emissions but not about cost savings, which I think bears mention.

"Contrasting this modest effort [of Seymour Cray in his laboratory to build the CDC 6600] with 34 people including the janitor with our vast development activities, I fail to understand why we have lost our industry leadership position

It probably does. For every solid guy from Indian background who was living in the USA that I worked with, there were always at least 5 horror stories involving e.g. some back office tasks that involved one of 3000+ people working in India

If you follow the various links on the Uber site, you see that they have multiple applications sitting on the same database. see https://www.uber.com/blog/schemaless-sql-database/ . It's not just 1 design of

People used 50Mhz SPARC systems to do real work, and the peripherals were all a lot slower (10mbps Ethernet, slower SCSI drives) with less and slower RAM. But it might take a week to compile everything you wanted, I agree; of course there i

The compilers of 30 years ago had incompatible behaviors between OSes, for instance C or C++ had a great deal of variation. And 30 years ago you had pre-OSX MacOS as well. Now you can just choose 1 compiler such as GCC and it works the same

That is retrocomputing, not homelabbing. Look into the sub-$200 Intel N100 based systems with 16GB RAM.

My contrarian take is that eventually k8s will be recognized as the overcomplication it is; and better methods of managing less than 10,000 VMs will be researched and used.

Not surprising - even HP's support site is full of dead /broken links, you can't even locate information on 2013 era desktops and servers.

The amazing thing is that 30 years ago there were cross platform toolkits like Neuron Data and the toolkit under OpenOffice(called StarOffice originally), and yet today the options are still fragmented and imperfect. We have far better comp

Many of the links point to eligis.com, which is being domain squatted, making the site hard to use. (I would like to read more, however.)
