THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!
I think the SFTP server is down again. Expected files not in our INBOX and it happens on a semi-regular basis and usually after a weekend.
On my Linux box I had a very simple CHRON setup to run a specific BASH script. On my work WIN11 machine I have automated running a specific program every Monday morning checking for a specific item.
It should be trivial to do the same on the servers instead of buying software to verify that the servers are w…
I love that Nic Chan explicitly excludes Substack newsletters from her list:

I guess the executive power grab attempts in SF government are taking multiple forms. Not only the Commission Streamlining Task Force, but Mayor Lurie and Board President Mandelman have also created this "charter reform working group," where there's no public comment and major city departments are excluded.

My email app on the phone got bust and let 'dead mail' reappear in the inbox. But unlike christ it disappeared efter a reboot 😅
It is good IT Security practice to separate data from code. For example, an SQL Injection attack is to get the target to treat data (entered into a form) as code, that is break that barrier.
Now take an "AI agent" doing a task for you like: "Download that podcast that Frank emailed me about". It will read untrusted data (e-mails in my inbox), access sensitive data (e-mails from my friends) get more stuff from the web (the podcast episode), etc.
And all that in an environment where there 1/2

On the subject of joys and problems of fieldwork, flight to Antarctica delayed by 24 hours.

Konstantin Ryabitsev, an admin of kernel.org infrastructure, reported on increasing difficulties they are having with SMTP deliveries.
"major hosts are increasingly not interested in getting mail from anyone who isn't also a major mail service provider"
"With lore and public-inbox, we *are* in the process of moving away from
relying on the increasingly unreliable SMTP layer"

People talk a lot about "inbox zero." I am far more gratified by achieving laundry hamper zero.
Talking about #neomutt today. Hopefully, it'll be easier to read than it was to write :)

Last year my inbox was inundated on #GivingTuesday by every non-profit organization that had ever gotten ahold of my email address. But this year I've gotten like three appeals so far. Curious.
The upside to #BlackFriday is that it’s the day every retailer from which I want to UNSUBSCRIBE shows up in my inbox all at once.

Right; mail server upgraded to #debian Trixie; I did it by recreating it in a local VM first; package install to match, and then tested a restore from my encrypted backups - which was a good exercise in its self. Then a dist-upgrade; fixing up Dovecot was the hairiest bit - they've randomly changed the name of a bunch of options. mail_location is now mail_driver/home/path/inbox_path and t…
Vorteile seit ich meine Website mit #Typemill zu Hetzner umgezogen hab: Uploads für Updates gehen viel flotter und die Berechtigungen für Ordner / Files auf dem Webspace sind gleich richtig. Außerdem habe ich keine Spam-Mails mehr in der Inbox meiner Mail.
Someone should invent a way for computers to count. At the moment both GMail and GitHub have incorrect message counts in my inbox. Again.
This has happened many times. Given that computers make it possible for me to order toilet paper for delivery by 2pm and then send me hundreds of messages about toilet paper by 5pm, it seems odd to me that they can't count.
But hey, I guess it's hard to count how many things are in a list, especially when the list is empty.
No “Strategy Breakdowns,” I have not wondered why I buy the Apple products I buy. I do wonder why you have put spam in my inbox. #spammer

Zur Entspannung und Ablenkung von der noch vollen Inbox 🙈 habe ich heute wieder etwas DaVinci Resolve gelernt und ein altes Video aufgearbeitet:
Eine kurze Geschichte der Null jetzt auf #peertube !
Das ging super schnell. Das Original ist eine Zoom Aufnahme. Man sieht noch Teile vom Desktop/Menü und andere Teilnehmys.
- In der Timeline 2 Kopien des Videos ablegen, synchronisieren und zuschneiden: 1x die Folien, 1x der Speaker. Zoomen und Platzieren -> fertig. 🤗
