Surely someone who's worked on Chromecasts at some point follows me, so why am I getting this:

curl 'http://192.168.87.229:8008/setup/eureka_info?params=setup.setup_state' | jq

{
"setup": {
"setup_state": 52
}
}

which does not appear to be an expected value, and attempting to trigger a stream results in it immediately closing the connection help I don't know what I'm doing

My story about how telematics data from people's cars unexpectedly raised their insurance rates is on the front page today...

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/11/technology/carmakers-driver-tracking-insurance.html?unlocked_article_code=1.b00.DzhQ.GXkvg-kgWebx&smid=url-share

... and this is where it started: me lurking on car forums and seeing comments like this.

If this story doesn't convince lawmakers we need a strong federal privacy law, I'm not sure what will.

The next Linux Kernel Debugging Tools monthly meeting is tomorrow, Wednesday, February 28th at 11:30 AM Pacific time. See the linux-debuggers mailing list for the agenda: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-debuggers/Zd5FF1aTvhHWcHhY@telecaster/ and let me know if you'd like an invite.

So, this is fun, but it really chews through your ChatGPT credits. :`)

I'm working on b4 "code review" mode (grab a series, apply it to your tree, review every patch, send all your acked-by's, reviewed-by's, and individual comments as a one lump batch at the end of your review). The reason I'm playing with this is to see if we can plug in some AI pre-analysis and discussion summaries before the reviewer starts their work.

We had a lot of #linaro hackers wondering around at #fosdem this year it seems: https://www.linaro.org/blog/linaro-fosdem-2024/

The #Linux Security Summit, April 18 & 19, in Seattle, has published the schedule:
https://events.linuxfoundation.org/linux-security-summit-north-america/program/schedule/
Come join us!

Linux is now a CNA: http://www.kroah.com/log/blog/2024/02/13/linux-is-a-cna/

This has taken a long time, I'd like to thank all the groups that helped, and especially the CVE group themselves. Our application was a bit different than other groups, but they understood that this is important for security overall.

One-line fix, you say? Meh. Here's a zero-line fix!

Wondering if that might be something the #Linux #kernel development community could use to motivate a few people to improve the #LinuxKernel's docs:

"'"Google Season of Docs provides direct grants to open source projects to improve their documentation and gives professional technical writers an opportunity to gain experience in open source."'"

When I got started with Linux kernel debugging, one of the most opaque topics was core dumps. What's inside them? What formats are there? How do they get created? How can you fix them if they're broken?

I've learned a lot over the past several years, and I wrote a guide based on my experience. It's a very long article, and surely not complete. I hope if you're interested in kernel debugging, you might read it and find it useful!

@TheWarOnCars Sometimes I feel like people are just being assholes because they can, it kind of drives me crazy because I don't really know what to do...

is running my X1 carbon in high-TDP mode all the time a bad idea?

git config --global rerere.enabled true

I learned this at #FOSDEM. You too might want to set it.

I made it this year, I’m in Brussels for #FOSDEM ! Join me tomorrow in room h1309 at 11h30 CEST for my talk about the mainline Linux state of Qualcomm SoCs and @LinaroLtd engineers work to achieve current state https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-1707-mainline-linux-on-qualcomm-socs-are-we-here-now-/

At the risk of spoiling next week's "quote of the week": @monsieuricon 's post on why projects like the kernel and Git continue working over email is definitely worth a read.
