Even if it’s not directly accessible from the internet on its own, if it’s accessible from an host exposed to the internet then anyone that can compromise a single host can immediately compromise the firewall.

“It’s only exposed to the outdated wordpress server” is effectively the same as being exposed to the internet.

You are right:

The second is using SSH, which is enabled by default on the management interface of the device. SSH can also be enabled on data interfaces.

Holy fuck.

Right in the Security Advisory

allow an unauthenticated, local attacker to access an affected system using static credentials.

Edit: NVM, later it says

The second is using SSH, which is enabled by default on the management interface of the device.

That doesn’t help if they have software that assumes it can reach all sites. I remember a few years ago AWS had a EC2 outage in eu-central-1 because of 1 of the Availability Zones went down and the service that allocates instances threw a 500 when it failed to get that AZ’s capacity instead of just allocating the instances to the other 2 AZs.

You can use git log --author=REGEX_THAT_EXCLUDES_DEPENDABOT ... .

Instagram was already forcing people to self-censor before TikTok became a thing

Social media forcing people to see self-censorship as normal has to be in the top 5 of the most harmful things they are doing.

AWS SLOs are going to shit aren’t they?

There’s extensive case law in the EU about this. The interesting part in the case of Musk’s companies is that they would be pretty much shielded from X’s fines if he hadn’t used Space X’s and Tesla’s resources and personnel while trying to fix things on X/Twitter.

500 million justifies using some very fancy data recovery means, as long as he’s sure it’s the right drive.

Lightweight distros need less than 1GB of RAM, so you don’t need to use the entire RAM.

In other news: Chinese marketing departments caught up to Western marketing departments in overselling their products.

They also kicked Jack to the curb went he tried to go full Musk on content moderation.

Does Google care if the content is there but hidden with CSS? I don’t think you need to actually torture the users.

They will always have slave labour as an “unfair advantage” (to use management-speak euphemisms), so prices might remain low.

Unfortunately, despite its name, it’s a Thirth Generation Programming Language (you asked for it).

It naturally contains some of the buzzwords of the time, such as fourth-generation programming language (4GL). If you’re not familiar with that term, suffice it to say that the Wikipedia page lists several examples, and Cobol has outlasted most of them.

Lots of 3GL outlived most 4GL languages, C, C++, C# Java, Ruby, Python, and even newer languages like Rust and Go are 3GL. In fact so did plenty of 2GL (assembly languages).

Programming language generations are about usage and level of abstraction not about being obsolete.

98SE was complete crap and people only forget about it because it was followed by ME.

The repo alone has 114 contributors, and that’s assuming no one copied code from any other project. It’s not that small.

One thing I’m missing in all this, did the dude change the license from GPL without the other contributors express permission? That on itself would be a massive violation of the GPL
