Heard someone casually mention "warez" and felt young again.

I'm always baffled about the process by which hacking victims find the git-security mailing list and decide that it's where they should send their pleas for help (and, less often, threats of reprisals).

Baseball to the face, day 2
Show content
I was honestly expecting it to be much worse today than this. I got hit right on my cheek bone from close distance, hard enough to momentarily black out. I did apply ice almost immediately, so perhaps that made all the difference. Or maybe the worst of it is still to come in the next few days.

Who got hit in the face by a baseball? This guy. Pictures when I get pretty colours and a black eye to rival Arthur Morgan after that bar fight in Valentine.

My crazy week is over. I've been to Vancouver, gave a talk, came back, went to a tri-district scout camp, played some silly scout games, participated in a travois race, and finally came back home, all merely in 6 very full days.

Next week, quiet times.

If you want to be a girl you can be a girl.

If you want to be a dude you can be a dude.

If you want to be neither you can be neither.

You’re allowed. Fuck anybody who tries to tell you otherwise.

Didn't realize I was sitting next to André Almeida on the airplane ride to YVR (of the FUTEX subsystem fame, not of the FUTBOL fame).

After a few starts and stops over the past few years, we have finally started migrating lists from the venerable vger system running on majordomo+zmailer onto a more modern stack (mlmmj+postfix). We're doing it list by list to reduce disruption and make sure that the new setup is able to take the load, but the hope is to complete the migration over the next few months and finally put the old vger to rest.

Thus far, we have migrated netdev and bpf and things are looking good and stable. We'll give it a week or two to make sure we don't hit any weird corner cases and then get going with others.
