#webservers — Public Fediverse posts

Oh, look! 🙄 Another groundbreaking revelation: deploying web servers at hobby scale is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, but with more SSL drama and fewer friends. 🚀 Apparently, if you dare to let others host your cute little project, prepare to reinvent the wheel, because #efficiency and #simplicity have left the chat. 🚪🔒

Like, ok, I get it, bots will scrape my site. I work in a library. Please, take my info. But this level of traffic is causing timeouts on my server and I don't like that--it reduces availability for flesh-and-blood visitors. #bots #webservers #systemslibrarian

Looking at the visits logs for my small server based in Connecticut that serves up Connecticut-focused content:

Huh, that sure is an increase over the normal background roar of bot traffic.
Dang it, Thailand! Also, dangit Philipinnes, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.

Ah, Macron's magical plan to zap €300B from across the Atlantic back to Europe. 🌍💸 Too bad it's as real as this "article" which is just a page full of bot accusations. 🤖🚫 Maybe it's time to invest in better web servers instead. 💻🔥

Ah, the elusive dream of zero heap allocation wrapped in the obscure magic of OxCaml—a language loved by three people and their pet camel 🐪. Because who doesn't want to parse HTTP/1.1 with a tool so #experimental that it might just parse your sanity instead? 🤯 The future of web servers is... secure? 🤔

Physicists at #CERN have apparently discovered the groundbreaking art of baffling web servers, achieving the elusive "429 Too Many Requests" paradox. 🤯✨ Meanwhile, #antihydrogen remains as elusive as coherent error messages from support teams. 🙃💻

🤖✨ Wow, a flying humanoid robot aiming to zip through the skies like Iron Man! But before you get too excited, the only thing taking flight here is your browser error message 🛬🔧. It's 2023, and apparently, robots aren't the only thing that can't handle basic tasks—our web servers are in on it too! 🙄💻

🚀🤖 Ah, the good ol' days when web servers were as cool as lava lamps and occupied prime bedroom real estate! 🌐📦 Fast forward to 2022, and we're still romanticizing those glorified doorstops while pretending it's cutting-edge tech. 🙄 #NostalgiaOverload

Does someone knows a way to test or diagnose a PHP process for memory leaks?

Asking for a friend. He puts NGINX with PHP and after a while a mail comes saying PHP 8.2.5 goes out of memory, good luck.

🚀 OMG! Bun.js finally has a built-in router for Bun.serve()! This dropped way faster than I expected, and I’m seriously impressed. 🔥

Also, if you have an arm-64 or macos platform, I would love to cross compile and get Dirt running on those platforms if you wanna test it out.
#Webservers on _all_ the things!

** Reposting and pinning this as I've moved my instance **
I've been a #Linux and #Unix #sysadmin for 30 years, the last 13 in the same job, but I think it's time to move on. I live in #Yorkshire #UK and I'm looking for #remote or #hybrid work. I generally work with #webservers, #nginx, #apache, #php, #mysql, you know #LAMP and #LEMP, as well as #networking, #DNS, #mail and all the other associated stuff. #fedihired #getfedihired

The more I dig into #dns #tls #webservers ...
The more I realise #foss lakes some glue to get everything together.. But there is already a solid ground to build on.
#rust and #nixos to the rescue again!!! 😀

Say goodbye to security disputes and hello to Freenginx: https://bit.ly/3ICDV6k

This project wants to be a drop-in replacement of #Nginx, run by developers rather than corporate entities.

Curious to know more? Read #InfoQ!

#Tor’s new #WebTunnel bridges mimic #HTTPS traffic to evade #censorship
WebTunnel is inspired by #HTTPT probe-resistant #proxy, but takes a different approach mimicking HTTPS. Since blocking HTTPS would also block the vast majority of connections to #webservers, the WebTunnel connections will also be permitted, effectively circumventing censorship in network environments with protocol allow lists and deny-by-default policies.

After spending yesterday entirely by re-implementing #tcp in #userspace I now know:

- TCP is weird
- we have the PSH flag that completly makes the data ignore the TCP sending/recieve buffers and directly writes into the application's stream
- ACK can be part of literally any other package; you also can SYN, FIN or PSH data while ACK'ing
- zero-length data packages *technically* exist, but they dont do anything; they dont even wake up the FD when it's in a epoll
- the #linux #kernel is funny: it responds with RST to incomming TCP packets, even on raw sockets; you'll need to drop them via #iptables if you want to implement TCP in userspace

Learned a lot! Now I can go on and create a few tests for #webservers; mainly SYN floodings and so on.

In Java and JavaScript there are libraries that ingest an #OpenAPI definition and create validations and Routes for #webservers like #expressjs or #vertx

Is there a similar library for #rust ? #RocketRS #actix #warp
