  1. Ah, yes, the thrilling saga of "ghost" packages haunting our #binaries 👻👾! Who knew our tech infrastructure was so fragile, held together by invisible tape and hidden dependencies—truly the stuff of #nightmares. But don't worry, there's a riveting #mp4 to save us all! 📽️✨

  2. running malcom but the old malcolm - need to image and install latest - sort of dread going from debian to ubuntu but if i image i can revert easily. maybe they figured out updating, i don't want github only updates.

    anyways it is a good one to offer vs say security onion - they use the same components mostly, suricata, zeek, elastic, maybe he has a live iso like last time.

    i think the reason to go to ubuntu is better newer drivers, bigger dev base? as long as it works - that is my concern, avoid dependency hell and breakage.

    it is good with managing all the containers and space for /datastore #sigs #hashes #dpi #netflow #ntop-ng #tcp-replay #binaries #hashcat

  3. [Today's Guest] Lorenzo Ducci from the University of Tübingen was a guest at IRAP this Thursday. He presented his most recent #research work on #accretion phenomena - in particular the accretion of matter in X-ray #binaries ...

  4. We are thrilled to announce the first Amsterdam Julia Language Meetup. We will be hosted by [Xebia](linkedin.com/company/xebia/) (Wibautstraat 200) on September 26, starting at 17:30, for networking, learning, and sharing.
    Join us in creating a local community for the Julia Programming Language around Amsterdam!

    Please sign up if you are planning on attending to estimate how much pizza and snacks to order!

    We'll begin by welcoming some experts in the Julia Language to talk about building and deploying Julia applications. [Martijn Visser](linkedin.com/in/visr/), from [Deltares](linkedin.com/company/deltares/), will speak about "Building binaries, big and small" and [Tom Lemmens](linkedin.com/in/tom-lemmens-28), from [Sioux Technologies](linkedin.com/company/sioux/), will present "Bridging the Julia Gap: Structural answers for your colleagues".

    **Schedule**:
    17:30 - Doors open
    18:00 - Opening notes
    18:10 - Mini-talk (Abel Soares Siqueira) - Mini-intro to Julia
    18:30 - Talk: Martijn Visser (Deltares) - Building binaries, big and small
    19:00 - Break
    19:15 - Talk: Tom Lemmens (Sioux Technologies) - Bridging the Julia Gap: Structural answers for your colleagues
    19:45 - Round of introductions
    20:00 - Closing remarks
    20:10 - Networking over food and drinks

  5. You may ask yourself, “why is he #refactoring a #Makefile generator in this day and age, given that he doesn’t #compile #sourcecode into #executable #binaries?” And you may say to yourself, “because the #manual showed me that there was a better way.” In this case, per-target variable definitions combined with an implicit rule make for something almost like a subroutine. #GNU #Make may not be new or sexy but when you find a suitable problem it’s extremely effective.

  6. That was one hell of a mission! Finally migrated from my old #RaspberryPi2 to a Shuttle as my #Yunohost #Server. It was far more difficult than I anticipated, what with the completely different architectures (#armf to x86_64).

    This oversight by some of the contributed "High Quality" apps, seems to be one that has been overlooked.

    Migrating should be quite a simple task:
    1. create backup
    2. copy backup to destination
    3. restore backup

    For apps that are arch agnostic, this isn't a #problem (like #WordPress). But for those apps that are installed with #compiled #binaries that run as system services, this is a potential weakness that might need to be addressed.

    No-one wants to install an application on a small #SBC only to find out later that they cant migrate to a more powerful machine should the need arise.

    This issue isn't addressed in the #Wiki, Bug Reports, Readmes, #FAQ or relevant documentation. Perhaps it might be something worth looking at?
