Normally when I'm trying to validate that an Internet service is available, well, I ping . Ping is one of those Internet bedrock protocols that I'm firmly in the camp of "SHOULD ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS BE TURNED ON". But there are ping flooding attacks, etc so there are reasons why it isn't always a default (looking at you here AWS; staring you dead in the eyes with the 'ol stink eye). I recently realized that while it isn't example the ..
I went on an adventure today. I left behind the stable comforts of the terminal and compiled bleeding-edge Emacs that uses a native window system. This is a big deal for me. As long as I can remember, I’ve used Emacs from within a terminal. I’ve decided to give the GUI’d Emacs a whirl. My Journey # I’m running macOS Catalina (10.15.5). Originally I tried using the pre-built packages via brew (brew cask install emacs) and those ava....
If you're building an app using GraphQL, picking a client to use can be hard. Apollo? Relay? Urql? Let's look into some options.
Docker runs as root. The programs executing inside containers too. Make it a bit better. # do everything you need as root (maybe installing some dependencies) # create a non-root user RUN addgroup --gid 1001 appgroup RUN useradd --create-home --gid 1001 --uid 1001 appuser # set new workdir WORKDIR /home/appuser # activate non-root user USER appuser # copy new files with correct permis..

Talks about the valiant but almost-dead 10-year effort to prevent tracking with the Do Not Track header.
Adding Google Analytics to Django properly requires a bit of extra steps over just pasting the Google provided JavaScript snippet in your base template and calling it a day. For example, if you use the same analytics key in dev and production you would inadvertently be co-mingling...  [Continue reading...] Adding Google Analytics to Django Templates The post Adding Google Analytics to Django Templates appeared first on BHoey .

Realtime Communication is providing enterprises with an innovative way to deliver better, more cost-effective customer service. Technology companies in India are racing towards a more connected and always-on world, making it easier, faster, safer, and more convenient for everyday people to do the things they need and achieve the things about which they dream. PubNub’s Realtime Communication Platform provides the backbone that any company ..
It seems like a simple enough question. Which word should you choose so that it takes your opponent the most guesses to discover it? Should you choose a long word to use up your opponent’s guesses? Or perhaps a short word with obscure letters? In this document I look into this question. But first, a bit of background. If you’re not familiar with the rules of hangman, it is a guessing game played between two people. Player A chooses a secr..
For some companies, infrastructure is the heart of its business. Specifically, I am referring to those companies which need to manage data and applications located on more than one server. -Continue to read the article on SerHack.me
It’s so hard to find great engineers that pass all of your interviews with flying colors. So when you do find someone who actually makes that happen, don’t let them go because you feel the need to bargain over little bits of money.
Warning: This is a bit of a brain dump. I’m working on a project at the moment which dynamically creates a set of CRDs in Kubernetes and an operator to manage them based off a schema which is provided by the user at runtime . When the code is being built it doesn’t know the schema/shape of the CRDs. This means the standard approach used in Kubebuilder with controller-gen isn’t going to work.
21 June 2021: Updated to resolve bug where wrong private key was passed to client_certs. This was exposed by service change. There is a good guide to generating the necessary certificates and manually editing the openvpn config you can download from the portal in the official docs. Being a sucker for punishment I wondered if I could automate the process (mainly because I always forget the openssl commands) and secondly it was to be ru..
Welcome to the Snyk Monthly Vulnerability Profile. In this series, Snyk looks back on the vulnerabilities discovered by or reported to our Security Research Team. This month we’re looking at one of a series of Zip Slip vulnerabilities Snyk’s Security Research Team identified in Golang packages.
layout: post title: So That One Time You Played with Docker for hte So that one time, at band camp – wait; wrong movie, this is a technical blog post about Docker … I recently helped a friend doing some federal work in the medical field get a better understanding of Docker and how Docker can mess about with open source licensing. We got up a "open source" stack of tooling using a bunch of heavy weight tools: Mongo Memcached A big Py....
I am in the process of wrapping up a year long engagement where I: Built a high performance data pipeline Capable of processing all of Twitter in real time / near real time Applied multiple tools to the data at different stages of the pipeline Applied one or more Machine Learning models at different stages of the pipeline Operated on AWS using SQS as the queueing structure This blog post talks about one of the key things I learned in te....
This one is a short one but a good one. I've been using SQS (disclaimer – I love SQS) lately for a large scale data pipeline. We are processing literally billions of small JSON blobs and in our cost modeling, we initially came up with an estimate that made SQS something that we couldn't use because of the number of JSON blobs. And then one of our people, thank you Don Neufeld, came up with the idea of batching up the JSON blobs and hav....
It was a rich month in July Google-Adsense wise, but slow in the sense that I didn’t write many posts.
It’s July, the seventh month, meaning the first six months of the year are over. In other words, the year is already more than halfway over.

Editors Note: Originally posted on medium by me At least, the way things are going here in the USA. Our roads, as we currently handle them, are unsustainable. As city and states are financially stretched in different and difficult ways, the incredible cost of road maintenance and construction is getting harder and harder for policy makers and government workers to manage. At the rate we are going there will be significantly fewer roads, mor..

This week on the show we have Armin Ronacher to talk about the first 10 years of Flask. Armin talks about the origins of Flask and the components that make up the framework. He talks about what goes into documenting a framework or API. He also talks about the community working on the ongoing development of Flask.
I recently took a Python and Ruby (but mostly Python) Machine Learning data pipeline live and, almost immediately, hit a pretty significant problem. The issue was this line of code: model_input = tokenizer . encode_plus ( text_to_classify , add_special_tokens = True , return_tensors = 'pt' ). to ( device_to_use ) This, which worked, at least for a while, perfectly on my development box. And then I deployed....
Some computing problems fall into the category of evergreen – no matter what you do, they will always, always, always occur – they are evergreen just like a pine tree. Today's version of this is storage. I've been running an EC2 node which has a SystemD service (no flames; I actually like SystemD although I do regard it as a betrayal of Unix's heritage but …) which processes some data via a Ruby application which is run through Docker. ....

In 2016, I was working to build a platform to help NGOs raise donations. The platform was supposed to be built using React. The beautiful designs were in place. I was excited to build some new features as well as to try out the new architecture using Redux on a larger scale. Yes, this was the time when Redux was fairly new. React still had PropTypes package attached to its core. The lifecycle method componentWillReceiveProps used to dom....

In this article, we will take a look at some top tips for handling remote working fatigue, and how we at Snyk have decided what works best for us.
The travel and tourism sectors are suffering because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and governments are scrambling to offer subsidies to affected businesses. But, there is little talk on how companies are transferring their costs to citizens, with government approval. In … Continue reading →
