I slept through the earthquake last night, so I can't even claim that experience. (It was only about 3 points in Tokyo, but apparently it was still quite something if you were in a taller building).

Starting to write up a series of articles about the Linux kernel CVE work that has happened in the past 2 years, starting with some "back to basics" information about how Linux kernels are numbered as many people/companies really don't know how we do this, and it matters a lot in tracking bugfixes and how to determine "vulnerable" and "fixed" kernel releases:

Went to an Irish pub in the middle of Tokyo for drinks and the first thing I see is a Quebec flag on the ceiling.

This is probably the closest to Kamchatka I've ever been in my entire life.

@kees I'm in a tiny middle seat. I don't usually get middle seats, but this was one of the few exit row seats left, and on a 14-hour flight that matters more than elbow room. Anyway, all of this is to say that my entertainment screen is safely tucked into its place under my elbow and isn't coming out. So, my current entertainment options is watching what my Japanese neighbour to the left is watching, which is some Japanese soap. ;)

Russia has welcomed US President Donald Trump's new National Security Strategy, calling it "largely consistent" with Moscow's vision.

@horms all queries that people do for legit reasons are fine! It's xapian under the hood and it can handle a lot thrown at it.

@prisherfice no idea, I don't have a usenet-capable device out (and I don't have nearly enough elbow room to try taking out my laptop). :)

2 hours into the 14-hour flight my resolve to just listen to an audiobook and sleep has failed. Hello, inflight wifi.

Zuckerberg has blown 77 billion – enough money to revitalize entire countries – on an idea so overwhelmingly, obviously stupid that I have never once heard anyone, from the Thanksgiving avuncular table to the most wretched depths of social media, say they liked it or even tried it. He was so sure that it would revolutionize the world that he renamed his extremely famous company after it. And now he's on to the next thing that he's so very, very sure about.

The world needs direction from sober people who aim to improve the human condition, not the whims of a handful of billionaire princelings who absolutely, positively cannot be dissuaded from failing at unprecedented scale while chasing their own vainglory off the edge of a cliff.

It's not the end of the world. I will be limited in what I can do, but I'll gain some access to things after I meet up with a member of my team in Tokyo, and he should be able to add the TPM ssh key I just created to my ssh account.

Still. Egg. Face.

Through brilliant feat of planning, I left the nitrokey with my ssh/pgp keys in my other pants before I left for the airport.
