Any comments on this? https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/1xbpbiu/comment/19rg36...

"We took our website down this morning when the "PoC"s were released, only serving a static website. Our customers were not pleased. Then we got contacted by Chainguard affiliates using our public support form if we would like to schedule a meeting with them, so that they could sell us their security services."

Don’t forget to firewall your webserver so it will only accept traffic that actually went through Cloudflare. This is the most false sense of security one can get.

LiteLLM does this, and can do a lot more beyond that.

But apparently there was actual CSAM there, since the article mentioned that archive.is removed it within a few hours. So the claim was real. Why did they make up such a story around it?

I am not implying you’re putting “everyone” in danger. I’m merely implying that you’re putting your own service in danger by allowing clients to act like a trusted subdomain like controlpanel.statichost.eu, .secure, or Unicode similarities of www.

So… you were hosting user generated content on the same TLD as your website, without using the PSL, and you blamed G when things went south?

By putting UGC on the same TLD you also put your own security at risk, so they basically did you a favor…

Ok, foo.sh then.

He needs to fix it - if he wants his license to enforce being paid for commercial use.

The license for the project is not GPLv3 but if my project is GPLv3 then the non-GPLv3 license for the project grants me a GPLv3 license if I include it.

Which shows the problem with this specific license in a single sentence.

TL;DR you need to fix this

Let's say I have an open source project under the GPLv3 which only contains a foo.txt.

"If you are creating an open source application under a license compatible with the GNU GPL license v3, you may use BrowserBox Pro under the terms of the GPLv3."

So I can merge the BrowserBox Pro under GPLv3 to become part of my project.

Now I remove the foo.txt and my project will be a BrowserBox Pro clone under GPLv3 without the commercial restriction.

In 1993 had an exam for my MSc Computer Sciences, course “3D graphics”.

To my despair, the exam turned out to consist of only a single question.

Question: write code to approach a sphere using triangular planes so the model can be used in rendering a scene.

I didn’t get to that specific chapter, so I had no idea.

My answer consisted of a single sentence:

I won’t do that, this is useless, let’s just use the sphere, it’s way more efficient and more detailed.

And I turned it in.

I got an A+.

That’s porous asphalt, developed in the Netherlands and used on 90% of the roads here. It is fantastic when it’s raining and it gets damaged really quickly when it’s freezing. In our climate the benefits heavily outweigh the downsides and we just apply a new top layer very often (once every 1 - 5 years).
