It's a pretty great documentary, currently still ongoing story.

I've really enjoyed watching it - quite captivating :)

> [...] that root was just my unprivileged podman user on the host

Couldn't you then simply re-run the exploit again as unprivileged podman user and gain root on the host?

This pollutes the page cache, which affects the entire host. Getting "root" in a rootless container may mean nothing. But if it attacked the ls, ps, cat, grep, etc. commands and any process outside the container invokes that command it runs the payload of the attacker. What if the payload of the attack is just the same attack to escalate to root? So now you have escaped the container and gained root.

did anyone try it? it suppose to work right?

I've only heard of the Red Pill in reference to the Matrix. Does it have that idea from "The Prince"?

The Prince is the basic concept of red-pilling. I.e. take the red pill and be exposed to the realities of the world where nice guys finish last.

No literal red-pill as in the Matrix but the ideas that mainstream "red-pilling" espouses are those of The Prince.

No, The Prince is very literal.

Inspiration for the red pill (which represents choosing knowledge, however ugly, over pleasant ignorance) would be more like... the apple in the Garden of Eden. Or the Allegory of the Cave maybe. Or Alice in Wonderland (which Morpheus directly mentions in the Matrix)

Redpillers latched onto that red pill imagery because they view themselves as, you know, having the best grasp on reality. Unlike the poor ignorant masses. Or so they believe.

"Redpilled" views do have some things in common with Realpolitik, and The Prince, in the sense that they're kind of nakedly amoral and rather ugly.

I think the red pill is a direct reference to the matrix. Its kind of weird they have such degratory views on sex and gender, given the directors of their favorite movie they cant stop talking about.

For sure, the red pill is a direct reference to the Matrix. I think previous poster was asking if the Matrix took that idea from somewhere.

    Its kind of weird they have such degratory views on sex and 
    gender, given the directors of their favorite movie they 
    cant stop talking about.

Yeah. I think the connection they see is that the reality Neo chose to confront (a humankind enslaved by machines) was unpleasant, and the redpill gang knows their version of reality is very ugly as well.

Same. I thought 'Conputer' was quite a smart title in today's AI world

It's like JetLag the Game, but without ever leaving your house!

We use it in production. Workloads with unpredictable memory usage (32Mb to 4Gb per process), but we also want to start enough processes to saturate the CPU. Before we configured & enabled swap we were either sitting at low CPU utilisation or OOM

What's interesting about it? Wifi Mesh networks have been around for ... more than a decade?

The original report says

> The incorrect state persisted for approximately seven days before detection

However you're saying you've reached out "within a few minutes" ?

The "incorrect state" being talked about is the IP prefix being misregistered in ARIN's database.

The "hijacking" happened later, when the IP prefix was announced via BGP by the registrant who it was incorrectly assigned to. Those are two different events.

It was re-allocated to the new/wrong ARIN customer for seven days before they started announcing it, at which point the OP detected the issue. Prior to that their prefix was routing to them just fine, just without RPKI protection.

> Those other countries have much simpler tax codes than we do

All German readers spew out their drink in disbelief - Pardon what?

I think you're vastly under estimating how complicated the us tax code is.

I have no idea about tha US tax code. An explanation would be welcome.

The US tax code is enormous and changes often enough that there is no human alive that has read the entire thing.

It's relatively easy to calculate the maximum someone with only ordinary income needs to pay.

However to pay less you need to understand all of the potential tax deductions, of which there are vastly more than most people realize.

You just aren't appreciating just _how_ majestically bonkers the US tax system is. It is truly a work of art.

For a country which loves complaining about tax, and where half the political campaigning was traditionally about lowering tax, they sure love overcomplicating tax.

The German word for how complicated the tax code is is "die Steuerverfassungskomplexität"

Was Germany one of the listed countries?

Yes.

> United Kingdom, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand, Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, and the Netherlands, among other countries.

As a Spanish guy living in Japan, I find the Japanese system hugely complicated (or better said, antiquated), so I shudder to think how bad the American system might be...
