Five Times When Updating Your OS Would Have Saved You From Being Hacked

Every checklist you've ever seen for securing your VPS includes "update your system regularly".  But is that one of those "best practices" that is more theoretical than a real-world necessity? To be honest, it's easy to not get around to running "apt update && apt upgrade".  In my experience, at least with Debian, updates rarely break things but it's always a small risk.  Nevertheless, it requires remembering to do it, spending the commands run, maybe rebooting, etc. Unfortunately, history has shown time and time again that skipping OS updates can leave even the best admins wide open to disaster.

Last week I was preparing for a long plane ride.  I grabbed my preferred travel video player - an Amazon Kindle Fire, which has a handy microSD port - and dug out a fingernail-sized piece of storage media to insert.  It occurred to me that this tiny centimeter-sized slab of plastic and silicon holds more data (1TB) than the entirety of the first datacenter I worked in back in the early 90s. What does the future portend for this popular format?

When the internet was first taking shape, the idea of country-code Top-Level Domains (ccTLDs) was simple: give every nation its own digital space. What no one expected was that some countries would find themselves sitting on virtual gold mines — not from their native users, but from clever marketers and businesses around the world who saw these two-letter domains as branding shortcuts.

Hosted MySQL offerings have always been on the pricey side, relative to running MySQL yourself.  Typically you pay some combination of storage, bandwidth, and metered activity (more queries = higher bill).  Adding all this up usually puts it outside what a LowEnder is willing to pay, as these services are aimed more at corporate types. But here comes NameCrane to make hosted MySQL cheap for the masses!
