Does any one have a #BGP MRT dump with Geo-Location Extensions enabled (RFC 6397)? I'd like to test my implementation against some real tables, but couldn't find any so far. rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6397

Good thread about how ChatGPT is *not* a useful disability aid, which dovetails nicely with the reporting about how AI lowers productivity when it's forced into people's workflows

Excellent piece, including this quote from the head of Greece's statistical agency about why fights over data are also fights about whether a country can see itself clearly:

Mr. Georgiou refused to bend. Reliable statistics are important for policymaking, he said. But they are also essential to democracy.

“Official statistics, government statistics are a mirror that society holds up to itself,” he said. If that mirror is distorted, or broken entirely, then the accountability that is central to a democratic system cannot work.

“If society cannot see itself clearly, then it cannot identify its problems,” he said. “If it cannot identify its problems, then it cannot find the right solutions. It cannot find the right persons to solve these problems.”

Impressive. Very nice. Now let's see the investors.

Builder.ai, the artificial intelligence startup that recently announced plans to declare bankruptcy, faked business with the Indian social-media startup VerSe Innovation for years to falsely inflate its sales, according to documents reviewed by Bloomberg and people with direct knowledge of the practice.

The two companies routinely billed one another for roughly the same amounts between 2021 and 2024, documents reviewed by Bloomberg show, as part of an alleged practice known as "round-tripping" that the people said Builder.ai used to inflate revenue figures it presented to investors. In many cases, products and services weren’t actually provided to either company for these payments, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential information.

Tweet by the Luigi Case on Twitter:

BREAKING: Latest motion states patrolwoman searched Luigi’s backpack at McDonald’s without a warrant, then repacked the items and left the restaurant with the backpack, with no body cam footage for the next 11 minutes during her drive to the precinct. Upon arriving at the precinct, she resumed the warrantless search and “found a handgun in the front compartment.”

With @kubernetes.io v1.33 I can easily apply a ephemeral container that intercepts traffic (with eBPF 🐝) and transparently encrypts it between pods. Doesn't show up as a container, so does that mean it isn't a sidecar 🤔

I'll spend my next few weekends building irrkit, a Rust SDK for accessing IRR information from major registries. It'll produce datasets like prefix-origin mapping and AS-SETs. I'll be reinventing wheels for sure, but it's my way of learning. Let me know what features you'd like to have. #BGP

TCP packets are now input/received in parallel in #OpenBSD -current. This follows work done previously on TCP output/send (in 7.7), once again by bluhm@! To take advantage of this, I believe as with parallel UDP, requires a driver that supports multiqueue: bnxt, igc, ix, ixl, ngbe, vmx, vio, aq.
