| schestowitz | <p>Organisations of different scales and forms want to harness the power of data to identify new business opportunities and improve current business operations.

| schestowitz | <p>One essential use case in which organisations require fast phase development and excellent data management is building modern web-based applications. Organisations demand a high-quality working system that can be deployed as quickly as possible. In addition, these applications should be able to scale. So, every application must be designed and built on a suitable database. Traditionally, web | Apr 27 07:26 |

But as applications modernise, more developers lean towards adopting alternative data stores, such as NoSQL (Not Only Structured Query Language) because of their benefits.</p> | Apr 27 07:26 |
| schestowitz | <p>One of the applications that can help organisations develop modern web-based applications is MongoDB. This database enables organisations to build scalable and data-driven applications. The data model and persistence strategies are built for high read and write throughput.

| Techrights-sec | is there a summary somewhere where FOSSForce comes clean on LF financing? | Apr 27 14:39 |

| schestowitz-TR | fossforce is an open secret | Apr 27 14:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | no need to fight them in the open | Apr 27 14:40 |
| schestowitz-TR | it would be counterproductive because we get support from them, esp. TM | Apr 27 14:40 |
| Techrights-sec | It would be convenient to have a link to point people to covering FOSS Force and | Apr 27 14:42 |
| Techrights-sec | LF but it does not have to be a link at TR | Apr 27 14:42 |
| Techrights-sec | Apr 27 14:42 | |
| Techrights-sec | The soft deadline for the temporary machine is approaching. Is there any | Apr 27 14:42 |
| Techrights-sec | use for it or can I power it down and repurpose it early? | Apr 27 14:42 |
| Techrights-sec | excellent | Apr 27 14:42 |
| schestowitz-TR | any offsite partitition withh backup of the site is helpful | Apr 27 14:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | in case of data losses | Apr 27 14:43 |
| schestowitz-TR | My connection is not fast, so my backups of the site are not so good | Apr 27 14:43 |
| Techrights-sec | The temporary system has no LXC and that is a quite unfamiliar way of managing | Apr 27 14:46 |
| Techrights-sec | services | Apr 27 14:46 |
| schestowitz-TR | a) many people with yellow labels in their carts today. maybe they come to grips | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | with them not being worth whatever their salary said 5 or 15 years ago, so it | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | is time to save where possible | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | b) 10 mins ago we discussed i the kitchen expenses, sum is estimated at 750/mo excluding | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | unexpected fees or help to family | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | c) lunduke is not "good neighbourhood" at this time | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | d) fossforce can be very schizo, so I try to stay on the good side of it | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | e) when TM had issue she took it very hard (fossforce), thought it was personal | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | I shared 3 "tweets" about that in IRC | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | f) we actually cycle up the stream and the food buying is comfy because it's right there and way back is downhill, | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | so carrying stuff in bicycle basket and backpack is easier than walking | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | (g) no food for the geese today (we keep heads and tails of bread for them, always) and there are already | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | some eggs hatching with gosling (we saw about 200 on the way) | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | h) I am going to start working on part 5 (belarus), maybe later I will do a video about that and about | Apr 27 14:52 |
| schestowitz-TR | microsoft FUD. I want to know the conditions for exploitation and how severe it really is | Apr 27 14:52 |
| Techrights-sec | ack | Apr 27 14:53 |
| Techrights-sec | c) lunduke is rather off since the last year or two | Apr 27 14:53 |
| Techrights-sec | e) ack | Apr 27 14:53 |
| Techrights-sec | grains might be healthier for the geese | Apr 27 14:53 |
| Techrights-sec | h) which vulnerabilities, specifically? | Apr 27 14:53 |
| schestowitz-TR | we limit to just one head or tail and split that among about a dozen each, so the total amount is small | Apr 27 14:54 |
| schestowitz-TR | because their food is grass and stuff, grain is better | Apr 27 14:54 |

| schestowitz-TR | I said, | Apr 27 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | wait there are 3 links about a new Microsoft FUD | Apr 27 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | The one about "dirty pipe" is old news | Apr 27 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | I think you pasted something from makeuseof | Apr 27 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | and then quoted two links from it | Apr 27 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | which I saw briefly | Apr 27 14:58 |
| schestowitz-TR | maybe then tried to pasted another | Apr 27 14:58 |

| Techrights-sec | The attack surface of Dirty Pipe stretches across all Linux kernel versions from 5.8 to 5.16.11. In layman's terms, | Apr 27 14:59 |
| Techrights-sec | it means that all the distros, from Ubuntu to Arch and everything in between, are susceptible to being compromised | Apr 27 14:59 |

| Techrights-sec | """ | Apr 27 14:59 |
| schestowitz-TR | There are two issues to cover (actually 3, I will mention ntfs neglect too) | Apr 27 15:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | but the main one is from Goodin and Bleeping garbage | Apr 27 15:00 |
| Techrights-sec | The problem sounds more like it is that many mobile and, especially, embedded | Apr 27 15:00 |
| Techrights-sec | systems don't / can't easily get kaintained | Apr 27 15:00 |
| Techrights-sec | despite being connected to the net. | Apr 27 15:00 |
| schestowitz-TR | they should have used simpler OSes, with smaller attack surface, and keep them OFF the Net where possible | Apr 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | but like browsers and sites throwing everything at you in bulk | Apr 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | they overcomplicate things for saving's sake | Apr 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | because small can be more expensive | Apr 27 15:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | small requires extra effort | Apr 27 15:01 |
| Techrights-sec | A problem is that everything nowadays has a network stack and the quick | Apr 27 15:02 |
| Techrights-sec | way to do that is throw a kernel at it | Apr 27 15:02 |
| Techrights-sec | ^Linux, specifically | Apr 27 15:02 |
| Techrights-sec | Making it smaller requires effort and skill | Apr 27 15:02 |

| schestowitz-TR | in palmOS it was not like this | Apr 27 15:06 |

| schestowitz-TR | and embedded devices | Apr 27 16:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | and small OS aspect | Apr 27 16:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | that 's used to discredit Linux for being bloated | Apr 27 16:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | but the key point is | Apr 27 16:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | Windows is a lot worse and a lot less safe | Apr 27 16:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | so I will focus on that | Apr 27 16:28 |
| schestowitz-TR | I won't link to the articles, I can instead show them on the screen in part | Apr 27 16:28 |

| schestowitz-TR | ok | Apr 27 16:30 |
| schestowitz-TR | no need to feed them traffic | Apr 27 16:30 |

| Techrights-sec | 2 days? | Apr 27 18:23 |
| Techrights-sec | nice | Apr 27 18:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | I say to people that they can read more in IRC to avoid repetition | Apr 27 18:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | and in #techrights main channel I've not participated much lately | Apr 27 18:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | it's doing ok on its own, relatively speaking | Apr 27 18:23 |
| Techrights-sec | the quotes are not of high quality though | Apr 27 18:23 |
| Techrights-sec | good that IRC is being taken care of on that channel | Apr 27 18:25 |
| schestowitz-TR | as you said, irc can be a "lot of work" | Apr 27 18:26 |
| schestowitz-TR | also, it is real time so attention and focus are impacted | Apr 27 18:26 |
| schestowitz | given what you sent me this morning, I had to check to see it's not conde nast | Apr 27 18:45 |

| schestowitz-TR | so far I saw nothing I disliked about it | Apr 27 19:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | then again, similar weekly and daily "household" brands got scooped up by Condy Nasty and turned nasty | Apr 27 19:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | Vanity Fair is one of them, IRC | Apr 27 19:01 |
| schestowitz-TR | always reminds me of Variety | Apr 27 19:01 |
| Techrights-sec | we'll see how well they continue to do, it's been rather good so far | Apr 27 19:02 |
| Techrights-sec | They;ve been in the daily links since 2017 | Apr 27 19:02 |

| Techrights-sec | :( | Apr 27 19:05 |
| schestowitz-TR | haha, you beat me to it | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | I was literally about to open the same in wikipedia | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | and did | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | only to realise you already opened tyhe same page | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | The Internet or Web lack high-quality sites andf those that are good or were good get bought, infiltrated, perturbe | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | d | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | because there is financial incentive to do this | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | in paper form it's trickier to do this | Apr 27 19:06 |
| schestowitz-TR | SEO, anon edits, threats, DDOS... | Apr 27 19:06 |
| Techrights-sec | I don't trust it but it often contains links to sources that /are/ rather | Apr 27 19:07 |
| Techrights-sec | authoritative | Apr 27 19:07 |
| schestowitz-TR | or it REMOVED such links | Apr 27 19:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | see OSI/Simmons | Apr 27 19:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | because it's "toxic" to sugest some orgs like EPO or OSI don't defend their mission | Apr 27 19:08 |
| schestowitz-TR | people who infiltrate orgs for eprsonal or corporate gain would do the same to sites that write about such org | Apr 27 19:09 |
| schestowitz-TR | wikipedia, media... | Apr 27 19:09 |
| Techrights-sec | often the good links get removed from wikipedia, like in the ODF fight M$ put up | Apr 27 19:34 |
