Digitale Grundbildung, so wichtig ...

People examining documents released by the Department of Justice in the Jeffrey Epstein case discovered that some of the file redaction can be undone with Photoshop techniques, or by simply highlighting text to paste into a word processing file.

菅直人さんが認知症になられたとの話、東日本大震災の際に色々あっても菅直人政権だったから乗り切れたという面もあるよなと、このところの災厄な世界と政権担当者を見ながら思いを強くしていたところで、再度、ありがとうと言いたい気持ちが強いです。

A few days ago, a client’s data center (well, actually a server room) "vanished" overnight. My monitoring showed that all devices were unreachable. Not even the ISP routers responded, so I assumed a sudden connectivity drop. The strange part? Not even via 4G.

I then suspected a power failure, but the UPS should have sent an alert.

The office was closed for the holidays, but I contacted the IT manager anyway. He was home sick with a serious family issue, but he got moving.

To make a long story short: the company deals in gold and precious metals. They have an underground bunker with two-meter thick walls. They were targeted by a professional gang. They used a tactic seen in similar hits: they identify the main power line, tamper with it at night, and send a massive voltage spike through it.

The goal is to fry all alarm and surveillance systems. Even if battery-backed, they rarely survive a surge like that. Thieves count on the fact that during holidays, owners are away and fried systems can't send alerts. Monitoring companies often have reduced staff and might not notice the "silence" immediately.

That is exactly what happened here. But there is a "but": they didn't account for my Uptime Kuma instance monitoring their MikroTik router, installed just weeks ago. Since it is an external check, it flagged the lack of response from all IPs without needing an internal alert to be triggered from the inside.

The team rushed to the site and found the mess. Luckily, they found an emergency electrical crew to bypass the damage and restore the cameras and alarms. They swapped the fried server UPS with a spare and everything came back up.

The police warned that the chances of the crew returning the next night to "finish" the job were high, though seeing the systems back online would likely make them move on. They also warned that thieves sometimes break in just to destroy servers to wipe any video evidence.

Nothing happened in the end. But in the meantime, I had to sync all their data off-site (thankfully they have dual 1Gbps FTTH), set up an emergency cluster, and ensure everything was redundant.

Never rely only on internal monitoring. Never.

Strongly recommend this post on npm’s staged publishing change after supply-chain turmoil. npm will roll out staged publishing to add a review step before releases go live after the Shai-Hulud attacks, giving maintainers a chance to catch bad releases.

Been experimenting with + a bit, a few things are very odd:

1. The quality of interactions I'm having with Claude inside Zed is of lower quality than in VSCode + Claude or in Cursor. It seems "dumber", assumes more, doesn't verify claims, just generally more nonsensical answers and needs more hand-holding.

2. It seems to consume a lot more tokens, I'm not sure why, I suspect they don't properly cache, don't compact, don't optimise input/outputs, etc. This is horrific.

There are hardly any American citizens or companies in Venezuela. There isn’t even a US embassy. ‘Taking oil’ is not possible without boots on the ground and companies operating there. It might take a decade to build that up.

Unlike Trump, I am curious about the sequel 🍿
