I'm not a meteorologist, but modern meteorology is a lot of physics and math and supercomputers.

Regardless of whether you prefer Trump or Biden, I don't get this trend of making last-minute US policy changes before Trump sits in. Can't he undo all that once he becomes President? If so, what difference does it make?

I'm from another European country. We do tip, but occasionally, only if we believe something about that meal was really great, and there's no set percentage. Also, there are no tip jars. What happens is the server brings the check

Let's say your application talks to a database. You reuse connections with a connection pool, but you accidentally reuse connections with different privileges and scopes. As a result, sometimes you get to read some data you shouldn&#x2

Cool, but you could add units of measure at least to the y-axis? We get the general trend, but we don't know if that peak is 10%, 20%, 100% or something else.

The point of tipping is that it's _supposed to_ go straight to the servers, while normal charges go the owners who then share them with their employees as they see fit. Assuming this is true, and tips are not actually taken by the owne

On an exposed NAS? Everything is possible, I know, but the amount of hacks related to S3 misconfigurations ( https://github.com/nagwww/s3-leaks ), including major companies, still makes me wonder.

The interesting thing is, most people wouldn't do the same things (say, chmod 777 all the things) on a public NAS. If this assumption is true, it begs the question. Why do people act like public cloud storage is more secure than "

I'm not sure how the author seems to know the Chinese EW playbook. Is there any open source (as in OSINT) material on this?

Exactly. People join SO and other SE websites to ask questions and get answers. With ChatGPT and similar platforms, trained on SE answers (and open Github repos,...), people will eventually skip Stack Exchange and directly go to ChatGPT.

I get why, in principle, we should pay people for open source projects, but I guess it doesn't make much of a difference when it comes to vulnerabilities. First off, there are a lot of ways to bring someone to "the dark side"

Interesting benchmark. Of course, if you need advanced search features, APIs for indexing and searching (Kibana) or some fault tolerance don't reinvent the wheel. So, I wouldn't use this in any production (i.e. non single-instance
