Note that you can use https://ipmap.ripe.net to lookup any IP address and RIPE Atlas measurements will be scheduled in the background to figure out the the location. So no need to schedule measurements manually (requiring credits).

We're also working on a reverse DNS geolocating backend BTW. We will look into this paper.

Using ping is a really crude way of establishing the 'darkness' of a prefix.

Complete prefixes just block off all ICMP incoming traffic, as do many core internet infra-structural devices (although they may pass them on, they won't answer pings directed to them).

> Having “intrinsic motivations”, sometimes a true passion, for what the social service worker does is the best prerequisite to have a satisfactory relation with clients.

This. Doesn't this hold for so many professions or just so many things we do in life?

What an excellent interview and what good to see such a positive insight on (a part) of Italy's economy. In the aftermath of the financial crisis in 2008 a lot of Italy bashing (together with basically all Southern European EU countries) has been going on, most of it completely based on stereotypes.

Also makes me wonder if cooperations like these are one of the reasons why (Northern) Italian design is so damn good.

Nice manual. Good to see that they show the raw sockets api and libraries using them side by side. Skimming through it though, it a eems a bit thin on ipv6 details, e.g. recvmsg is not mentioned, but is indispensable for receiving ancillary data from ipv6 icmp packets.

https://radicallyopensecurity.com/ are pretty great. Don't know if they're actually better than fox-it. The latter I only know by reputation.

On the other hand there are scores of people not in PL academics that are interested in OCaml. People that might have heard of Reason for example.

Honest question, Is reason really targeting wasm right now? Do you know a resource describing this? I cannot find anything about this.

Really? Everything? His life? His children’s lives? Or just money? Or just his investor’s money?

My point being if you have a lot you can risk a lot in absolute terms, but maybe not so in terms relative to your own wealth or well-being.

I don’t think he even risked his reputation with his space rocket thing. ‘Fail fast, etc’, right?

Hmm, I am from the Netherlands too. Not sure which media and lobby against farmers you're exactly referring to. Who would be putting up this lobby and to what ends?

Now I know that there is a big lobby in favour of agriculture in the Netherlands, that is highly successful and had basically a political party in its pocket up until the mid-90s - the CDA, you might want to google Gerrit Braks for example. This lobby was one of the enablers of the rise of the high-tech agri-cultural industry in the Netherlands as we know it today.
