Beavers are really important.

After the huge wildfires in Oregon in 2022, a biologist went out to survey the damage. Not only were the forests blackened, thriving trout populations in the streams were gone, choked to death by ash. โ€œI was in total shock. It just looked like devastation.โ€

Then he stumbled upon something even more surprising: roughly five acres of pristine greenery in an otherwise burned-out area! At the center were eight active beaver dams.

But this was more than a refuge from the fire. While fish had disappeared upstream of these dams, the downstream water was crystal clear โ€” and trout were thriving as though the fire had never happened! The beaver dams were acting as a water treatment plant.

[Paraphrased from this article: scientificamerican.com/article]

A complex of beaver dams at Dixon Creek, a tributary in the Sprague River watershed in Oregon, keeps riparian habitat lush and green amid a landscape charred by the 2021 Bootleg Fire.

I've done a lot of dumb things, but this past week I've been working on something so spectacularly stupid that I think it loops around to being amazing again. Working on the blog post about it now.

curl, which is one of the most popular CLI/API tools for network requests and data transfer on Linux/Unix, is to discontinue its HackerOne bug bounty program due to "too strong incentives to find and make up 'problems' in bad faith that cause overload and abuse".

The authors simply cannot keep up with LLM-generated fake security reports created to collect money using bots. So, it now shuts down at the end of January 2026. This is why we can't have good things

did you know: IP cameras have non-standardized board-to-cable connectors which you sometimes have to build cables for yourself. this makes it easy to swap the polarity by accident
did you know: IP cameras can survive reverse polarity +12V@2A to the input (apparently)
did you know: IP cameras that work properly make terrifyingly loud clicking noises on startup (it's the IR cut filter solenoid)
