interact with a browser with a CLI rather than MCP. I’ve found it to be faster than playwright MCP.

I was about to agree with you, and then I read the article on DTLS.

> And that data-stream the interface that TLS provides

That’s exactly the problem. You might lose a UDP packet. That would corrupt data encrypted with stream cipher.

With DTLS, each packet is encrypted individually.

Beej’s guide for networking really saved me:

I continue to find that knowledge useful in my day job working on distributed systems.

Virtual threads, generational GC, manual memory management, all things .NET has had for ages. Too bad it can’t shake the “MS tech is boring” reputation

> new software and hardware is being developed or rolled out right now that is incapable of working on an IPv6 network

I would be shocked if this were true for hardware. Even for software, every major OS in the last 10 years as supported IPv6, and prefers it over IPv4

I’m sure there’s horror stories, but I doubt it’s systemic.

You can do zone affinity with service fabric. It’s difficult, but not impossible.

712 is another way to refer to a 717-200. Though it’s a bit odd they just didn’t say “717-200” in the article to reduce confusion.

How did I not hear about this before on HN? This is pretty cool.

I read this sentence like 5 times trying to make sense of it. Glad it wasn’t me.

This is incredible.

Why do you want to block windows updates?

>For the less than 100 private cars in operation in America, why does Amtrak even offer this service?

What are you trying to ask? Don’t you answer this question, below?

>Like the first class section on an airliner, it's effectively all profit for them since the train was going there anyway and the extra fuel to haul it & supply power is minimal.

Or are you saying, there’s only 100 private cars, why not allow a Presidential fare from a fleet Amtrak cars?

My answer would be “ Like the first class section on an airliner, it's effectively all profit for them” this isn’t actually true. First class sections on planes were until recently mostly filled with frequent fliers that got free upgrades [1]. Those first class seats eat up a lot of space that could be directed to revenue-generating economy seats.

So I would imagine one reason Amtrak doesn’t offer a Presidential fare is because Amtrak would need to retrofit some cars to have that experience, and manage demand of those cars. The penalties of empty cars is less than that of an plane, but still.

I had this problem too. Call your carrier and convert your domestic SIM to an eSIM and pop a new physical one in.

Turn off roaming on main SIM card and iMessage still works, but uses the data of the other SIM card.

>I suspect the way Microsoft does interviewing and performance management (very local to the specific team) contributes to the inconsistency.

I think pay is certainly a factor in talent bleeding to G/Meta in general, which they refuse to address. I imagine this isn't unique to MSFT.

That feels broken. Did you open a support ticket or a GH issue on the documentation page?

They said in the article they tried updating their old SDK.

This is different than breaking changes in package upgrades.

This is a change without the package version even changing (even newest package didn’t work)

Is a global outage better than a regional one? You can’t predict the impact of changes on a system as complex these.

I work for Azure (different product) and we do care about breaking customer. We have to keep GA APIs around for years even as they’re being deprecated. The AzureRM module was deprecated over a year ago I think, and it will work until 2024.

This really feels like a bug to me, and probably didn’t trip monitors due to 2 reasons: 1) Given that portal does the right thing (and probably ARM template samples), this was very small percentage of traffic.

2) the failures would look like client side errors, making it less likely to trip monitors.

Re: the screensaver:

> Note: before you can run Bluescreen on Windows 95 or 98, you must copy \winnt\system32\ntoskrnl.exe from a Windows 2000 system to your \Windows directory

There be dragons

Really curious to see how a single (albeit large) DC issue caused a global outage.

Further; was the DC not protected by redundant power?

Also even more interested to see how this arc flash even happened. Presumably these were experienced engineers working with obviously dangerous power levels.

Not saying the rebrand makes sense, but this new product is called Microsoft Defender, while the one in Windows was called Windows Defender.

It should be “affected”

> Apparently Qatar has a single ISP, Qtel, with a single IP address shared by the entire country.

Wut?

levels.fyi, for one. Someone as notable as him would be L66+ easily, I feel.

Maybe not 500k, but is 400k that far off?

>IPv4 servers are reachable by IPv6-only clients

How does this work?

>The right path forward for NPM and package managers like it is to stop preferring the latest possible version of all dependencies when installing a new package

As a package author specifically around one that wraps/interacts with REST APIs, begging people to upgrade at my company so I can deprecate old APIs can be a challenge. Maybe that's an argument for a monorepo, but still..

Obviously the current system has its flaws, but nudging packages towards newer code does have other clear benefits, like them automatically getting security fixes.

10,000 Christians per year (excluding Congo's civil war, hence the article's title), it seems: https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-24864587

And Muslims in China don't fare particularly well, either: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Muslims#China_2

AFAIK it was a signature update, and the existing code couldn't understand the new signatures with a 2022 timestamp. IMHO, signatures still should have been deployed to an early ring before broad release.

Antimalware signatures as code, anyone?
