Two years ago I wrote a program to
wrap Perl in order to catch script kiddie Perl scripts on the
server.
Today, I'm deleting a huge backlog of information recorded by
said program (normally under Linux, the physical directory (a list of files
in said directory) is 4,096 bytes—the directory I'm trying to delete is
110,104,576 bytes in size (as a rough calculation means there's over
3,000,000 files in that directory).
And this isn't the first time I've deleted that directory.
But what I didn't realize is that I never got around to releasing the
program.
Woooooooooooot! Another project released!
Update on Monday, April 18th, 2022
I've since unpublished the code. I'm not sure I even have the code anymore.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
symbol, design element, et cetera mentioned in these pages is a
