The abysmal adoption of DNSSEC is just embarrassing, and I haven’t heard any good arguments for why we shouldn’t do it. There’s one blog post that gets passed around as justification for not adopting DNSSEC, but it doesn’t really go into any technical detail and is mostly just the author saying “I’m scared of governments and TLDs”… which is maybe fair, but you still have to trust them for regular CA certs and everything, so why not make thr base secure?
Honestly, I might care slightly more about DNSSEC than IPv6 adoption… IPv4 exhaustion and NATing everywhere sucks, but the fact that you can’t trust DNS is like… insane.
Honestly, this makes me feel good about my habit for peeling off / throwing away those little ad stickers and cards whenever I see them somewhere and people aren’t looking.
I work in IT. My boss is by all accounts very competent in both programming and administration, yet all his documentation basically says “remember to set DoTheRightThing=True”
Edit: I just looked up the documentation for an internal service and under “Error recovery” it just says “The output of command xy should make sense”. fml
Back in the olde days of programming (I'm talking about compilers from the 80s) the coding connoisseur knew that getting a certain error that seemed like nonsense could easily be solved by adding an extra, or removing a remark line from the top of the code and recompiling.
Funny thing is that over here in Europe the ice cream machines seem to work almost all the time. I understand that it’s because they use a different brand of machines, but I’m not sure about the details.
There they had to change the machines to the other brand because the ones they use here (us) was found to literally be designed to require a ton of maintinence so they could make money charging for repairs.
TLDR machine designed to break breaks a lot, not allowed in Europe.
For me it’s the canned cranberries. Everyone always wants the fresh stuff. Fuck that. Gimme that highly processed flavored corn syrup in a log, please.
I don’t even know how that jello is a sauce. It just stays solid even when warmed up. It’s good, but, like… On its own. I usually put it on my dessert plate, not the dinner one.
Well, I’ll have to disagree. I’ll only eat the fresh stuff. That gelatinous log is what made me think I hated the stuff. The first year I had fresh was a game changer. That’s all we do now. But to each their own and I hope you have as much gelatinous log as you want.
Lol … DNS is one of the pillars upon which the internets tands, a crumbling mess of a pillar but I’m sure glad we don’t have a name system built on hosts files 😹
