- I agree. If this was Oracle I might not have too difficult of a time believing this is all of the story. But I do think in this case there is more to the story.
- Or, you need to spend a lot of resources to do the attack even if it's the case that you get that money back when you succeed.
There is a word for this. We call it risk.
- Ask yourself why so many content hosting platforms utilize CLoudflare's services and then contrast that perspective with your posted one. Might enlighten you a bit to think about that for a second.
- Between this and Hertz's new AI damage detection models, we're seeing the enshitification of business travel reaching a new level, and also doing a great job of really ticking off a group of customers (business travelers) who are already irritated enough.
Rest markets itself as a way to "unlock a new revenue stream"
Leave it to the bean counters to see this as an opportunity to generate new revenue streams from customers while simultaneously pissing them off.
- BNSF railroad also has an extensive meteor scatter radio system across north america that is similar to SNOtel.
- meteor scatter communications were even more crazy and impressive (still in use actually)
- I've seen some specialist docs with extensive experience direct commission as an O5
- CEOs are more like high ranking general officers, not O-6 level (Navy Captain, Army/Air force full bird colonel)
O-5 (Lt Col, Navy Commander) would be VP / GM level stuff, GS-13 through GS-14 in the federal government
O-6 equivalent in the civilian world equates to a GS-15 in the federal government, and a senior VP in the corporate world
O-7 (brigadier general) would be an EVP level position, C-level large org
O-8 (general) would be CEO
- The pay scale isn't really equivalent. For military doctors and dentists the typical lure is they will pay off all your student loans for a specific time commitment to the military.
- RTL-SDRs have a typical usable bandwidth only about 2 MHz, so that is going to rule them out of any real usable LTE related decoding and detection
- Some of this obscure test equipment is very interesting and amazingly designed.
There are probably only a few electrical engineers in the entire world that actually use this stuff on a day to day basis.
- Returning the OTP in the request API response is wild. Like why?
- Eh, I've got 13 years to deal with this. No big deal.
The best thing about waiting until the last minute to fix something is it will only take a minute.
- Informix is the april fools joke.
Does anyone remember the Informix / Oracle wars? What a time to be alive that was.
- This guy's writing style makes him a worldwide treasure, and probably inspired a few young chemists.
I'll always read and re-read his blog posts when they are posted here.
- You can monitor and track these as well with: https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433
- Yes, a number of smaller airports are staffed by contract tower controllers.
- If there is one thing I've learned in the past few days, acutely so, is that the vast majority of people do not understand the sheer complexity of what it takes to have an aviation industry.
- Here is the ATC audio between the Tower and PAT-25. Helos that transition DCA's airspace use a separate VHF frequency from traffic landing and departing, but talk to the same tower controller.

* At 5:41 - 5342 is given instructions for circling to 33.
* At 6:45 - PAT-25 reports Memorial
* At 7:06 - tower gives PAT-25 traffic advisory about 5342 and PAT-25 reports traffic in sight and requests visual separation
* At 8:12 - tower asks PAT-25 if they have the CRJ in sight and tells him to pass behind the CRJ. PAT-25 again reports traffic in sight and again requests visual separation.
* At 8:28 - crash occurs, exclamations, go arounds issued
The quality however of the X32 leaves a little bit to be desired. The power supply died in it due to fault capacitors (I was able to replace them myself) and the rotary switches on the rack unit itself no longer work (I remote control the box anyway) but.. I've been able to look past all this because the sheer power of the tech is unbeatable for my use case. Running a single CAT-5 connection from my detached lab/rack to my office in the house with 32 channels of AES audio is amazing stuff for me.
