Re:N.J.’S Largest Hospital System Pays Up in Ransomware Attack
on Tuesday December 17, 2019 @05:09AM (#21812211)
I work in this space. Its probably not a matter of kill people, doctors in ER's don't really need a EHR to function and sometimes do without due to technical issues. The issue is that the hospital won't be able to bill without documentation.

Would you sue me if I tried to implement this? That is a amazing idea.

That's the Python interpreter and all the dependencies starting up. Shouldn't really matter if you are using it as a chron job.

Re:Gitlab ‘rethinking’ third-party telemetry

That makes sense but I don't think any third party would pay to be included in a iframe and fed such a limited amount of data, and if you aren't paid for it why bother making all of your users mad in order to do it?

I'm curious as to how the plumbing worked in this system. Would seem difficult to pipe water in a manner that can rotate like this.
Re:DNS 101: An Introduction to Domain Name Servers
on Thursday October 17, 2019 @07:25PM (#21287283)
What about the failure rate of all the DNS servers? It's not like someone set up a Windows Server box and we all share it. Google's DNS server at 8.8.8.8 for example uses some sort of complex multihoming/multicast setup and is globally distributed. I trust DNS to work more than any other service on the internet. It's a triumph of software engineering. The Roman aqueduct of the internet.

>But we don't just wait for buildings to burn down to teach organizations a lesson about their heating contractors -- we have fire codes, and inspectors with teeth.
We did wait for a fire to create building codes, it just was a long time before either of us were born: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_Shirtwaist_Factory_...
There was certainly plenty of fires before that but this one was terrible enough to cause a public outcry.
Try watching star trek the next generation with that setting on.

Every feature requires 2 people to build the endpoints, 3 people to wire up the auth and 2 people to add it to the web app? And that's all they do going forward?

That's the whole point of leadership according to Simon Sinek. Leaders are granted privileges and power and in return must stand by the decisions they have made. Without that they aren't leaders but merely authorities.
