8/6 Does anyone know if there's an open source library for talking to
various IM networks? There was something called libfaim once upon
a time, but it seems to have disappeared. Basically, I'd like to
build a better IM to SMS proxy. Something like this:
http://features.engadget.com/entry/8931594493760248
but bidirectional and transparent. Does such a beast exist? At
present the best option looks like using gaim as a starting point
-dans

8/5 Dear network administrators, I'm just curious what percentage of the
traffic is http, ftp, ssh, finger, ping, etc? And is it really
possible to do a successful DoS via finger?
\_ Depends entirely on what your network does. Big corporation?
Internally? To the Internet? University? Carrier? It varies
tremendously. And you can DoS using pretty much anything, if you
do it enough. -John
\-well obviously this is sort of a trivial question for a
LAN ... if you are an large oil company and are crunching a
lot of data, maybe it is NFS, maybe it is AFS ... maybe you
are using computation GRIDS ... but you should probably be
surprised if it is Quake traffic. As for the internet at large
which is what i assume you are asking, I havent been following
the internet measurement area for a while but a few things:
tcp is +85%. udp is a distant second. the size of flows and
packets have some interesting distribution properties [e.g.
obviously a lot of syn/ack/fin/rst "small packets"] as
well as some directionality properties [hence asymmetric
bandwidth provisioning makes sense], as well as some time
of day, day of week effects [which are what you expect ...
weekends are quieter] and there are some hour of day properties
but i dont rembmer how geography was factored into those
measurements. and now for protocols ... yes http traffic is
something like 75% of all traffic. there is a couple of
percent DNS background [the percentage has come down a bit
over the last 10yrs]. ftp as a fraction has come down and
is now in the single digits. mail is also in the same range
but i dont remember how this has changed over time since
spam took off. unsurprsingly ftp transactions are larger
than email, so the same number of bytes represents much
fewer transactions. i believe the news background has
shrunk in percentage terms but dont know what the absolute
flow volumes are. ssh, telnet rlogin are all noise.
i dont know much about what i'll call web helper applications
like streaming audio/video. also i dont know what p2p
has done to these numbers. i also dont know to what extent
the public internet is use for online WAN gaming. i doubt
netrek is king though :-). you can look maybe around the
CAIDA website ... they might have something up to date,
look for maybe kc claffy. disclaimer: my numbers are biased
toward byte volumes, not flows or packet counts. most
importantly this is pre a lot of p2p take off. there were
some early trend numbers but i dont know what the picture
looks like after the napster rollercoaster, the rise of
gnutella, bittorrent etc. more involved statistical analysis
of flows is beyond the scope of the motd. if you are interested
in a narrow question you can send me a note. --psb
\_ What Partha said, and ditto about specific questions--I mainly
know about banking/insurance networks (Internet and LAN.)
Also you may want to differentiate between # sessions and
# packets/session (as Partha indicated.) Use something like
EtherApe on a core L3 switch SPAN port to give you a cute
graphical overview of what/how much is out there. In a
corporate LAN, your highest overhead's bound to be Windows
fileshare, web & email traffic. Also depends on what part
of a network you're looking at (e.g. some nets are dedicated
server segments, where you might see mainly SQL-type stuff
going back and forth, etc.) -John |

8/6 My dad just got biten by a neighbor's dog (maybe some kind of German
Shepherd) that was not on a leash when my dad went outside to our
driveway. It was unprovoked. The paramedics and police arrived.
We've a police report. Is there anything that we can do? Would
lawyers take up such small cases? Can we at least get the owner to
cover for all of the medical expenses incurred?
\_ just say put the dog down or i put you down
\_ Most likely the owner will volunteer to pay for the medical expenses
for fear of further legal action. And unless your dad sustained
some serious or permanent injuries, don't bother suing them; it's
just not worth it.
\_ Call John Edwards.
\_ Can you believe that shyster might actually help someone get
money for their medical expenses! Has he no sense of decency?
\_ <Replying to myself> And to the inevitable "channeling a
dead girl" reply: Yes, he was manipulative. That's what good
lawyers do: manipulate the jury to get a favorable verdict
for their client.
\_ Tucker Carlson characterized a teenage girl having her
intestines sucked out by a faulty pump as a "Jacuzzi case".
\_ That reminds me of the clip someone posted a while ago
where a crab gets sucked into a hole much smaller than
its body, and exploded instantly.
\_ You mean?: /csua/tmp/crabvspipe1.mpg
\_ Yup. Disturbing.
_/
For those looking for context here (like me):
http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/2004/07/27/tucker/?source=RSS
\_ You should contact animal control.
\_ Judge Judy awarded someone with $3000. He was bitten by an
unleashed dog in a park and sustained some relatively minor
injuries - scratches and bite marks on the side of his body
and hands. So: you can take your neighbor to small court.
It would be helpful if you had a witness who is not family.
\_ Nice to see the motd has no morals. Go motd!
\_ Hey, he asked about lawyers, which implies he's already
interested in suing.
\_ No morals? are you f'ing serious? If your unleashed mangy mutt
*attacks* and injures me, damn right you deserve to pay
compensation for your negligence.
\_ Small claims court is made for this kinda stuff. But make sure to
try and get a settlement from the guy before taking him to court.
\_ Before you think about suing and lawyers and so on, why don't
you talk to your neighbor and work something out. It is much
better to be on good terms with your neighbor than to get a
few hundred dollars out of him/her. On the otherhand, if your
neighbor is a jerk, maybe you need to sue.
\_ His insurace may cover it, which is probably better than a lawsuit. |

8/6 Journalism at its best: the closest a long article about "Links between
Prison and AIDS affecting Blacks" gets to prison rape is "Correctional
health experts say the rampant sexual activity among prisoners
depicted in television shows like the HBO prison series \"Oz\" is
exaggerated. But sex in prison certainly occurs."
http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/06/national/06aids.html?hp
\_ Two friends of mine argued a case at a debate tournament that
the way to prevent prison rape was soap on a rope... -John
\_ DId they win?
\_ What does soap on a rope do?
\_ Harder to accidentally drop. Bending over to pick up your
soap in a communal shower leads to...
\_ Why not just bend at the knees?

8/6 I'm trying to find the true dependencies that a particular shared
object has on other shared objects. Are there existing tools that
can do this automatically? Otherwise I was thinking of just using
nm and grepping out the undefined references and then correlating
that to the defined symbols in the other object files. Thanks
for any tips.
\_ like ldd, or are you trying to find out exactly which functions?
\_ yeah, sorry. i mean actual symbols. if you ask the compiler
to link in spurious shared libraries (that your other
library doesn't really depend on), i think it will. so ldd
won't give an accurate answer in that case.
\_ nm + perl is your best bet

8/6 Ilyas, I see you're posting today. Are you also enforcing your
arbitrary "thread deletion order" rule you imposed on the rest of
us on Wednesday? If this gets deleted, should I purge the rest of
the motd? -meyers
\_ Out of curiousity, when does your script say I posted last?
I bet it's wrong. -- ilyas
\_ The meyers is never wrong! He may cry like a litle girl at the
slightest provocation, but do not dis the meyers! -mice
\_ Ahem. I did not use a script to guess your last post, but
saw you were part of an active discussion. My questions
are still unanswered, ilyas. -meyers
\_ Which discussion is that? I see no posts of mine on the
motd now except replies to you. As for your questions:
If I see threads I care about deleted out of order, I will
delete all threads up to most recent deleted. This is not
something I did on Wednesday as an experiment, I will
continue to do it (if I am around), unless someone gives me
a better way to fight thread modifying assholes. I only
do it if I have absolute proof the thread was modified
maliciously (i.e. if I saw it make it to /etc/motd, and
then changed later). I do not use any scripts. What _you_
do on the motd is none of my business, however please try
to be a good motd citizen. -- ilyas
\_ Since this "only delete the oldest thread" is a rule
from you and only enforced by you, how does this make
you less of a prick for deleting everyone else's stuff
than the person who deleted a thread you were
interested in? I didn't accuse you of using a script
to do it. You had some entries in a tax discussion
which has already been purged. -meyers
\_ You are free to think I am a prick. I just don't
want people deleting stuff they don't like, that
other people enjoy. I can find no other feasible way
of discouraging this. If you have one, let me know.
Namecalling will get you nowhere, I am afraid.
-- ilyas
\_ So to discourage random thread deletion, you
delete threads at random! Way to go! -meyers
\_ Not at random. But whatever. I am not sure
what you were trying to accomplish starting
this thread. It's clear you aren't interested
in a debate in good faith.
-- ilyas
\_ Random as in your own arbirary selection
based on some odd defintion of "freshness".
According do you, an active thread on the
bottom of the motd is more stale than
one above with no responses. -meyers
\_ You are right, it's not perfect. What
do you suggest? Incidentally, I only
delete when an 'active' thread gets
deleted. I don't recall every nuking
anything after a thread with no
responses in the middle of the motd
was removed. Yes, it's a fuzzy line,
what did you expect? -- ilyas
\_ You can't restore the thread? How
many csua types run motd archivers?
You could restore your thread from
any of them. Why delete threads
interesting to other people? Does
it make you feel better? -meyers
\_ It doesn't. I don't feel bad. In
fact, I am not really emotionally
invested in the motd very much.
However, restoring the thread
does not give impetus to the
thread deleting fuckers to stop
doing it. You seem to assume
people who delete threads do it
out of goodwill, whereas in my
experience most people who nuke
stuff in the middle do it out of
malice, or because they feel the
topic doesn't belong on the motd,
etc. I am trying to create
conditions where motd becomes,
roughly, a FIFO data structure.
It seems to be a reasonable
compromise. -- ilyas
\_ So, since you get censored, it's
only fair for you to be able to
drag in other people's threads
and censor them? How does this
make sense again? -meyers
\_ Your argument is going
around in circles. I stated
already my reasons. If you
have a better course of
action, other than 'do
nothing', let me know. At
least now if people fuck with
threads, they know motd will
likely not remain fun for
very long. -- ilyas
\_ I'm just looking for a
little consistency in
your position here. Why
not just nuke the whole
motd instead of imposing
your arbitrary deletion
ordering rule? -meyers
\_ You are right, I could
nuke the whole motd,
too. Would you rather
I did that? -- ilyas
\_ Stop it, both of
you! Can't you
see you're
tearing this
family APART?!
-geordan
\_ There's strong motd
tradition of just
nuking the whole
thing. -meyers
\_ Thanks for your
feedback. It
seems I have
misjudged you.
Heh. -- ilyas
\_ Did either of you delete the tax thread? Fuck you if you did.
\_ I haven't ever deleted a thread on the motd. -meyers |

8/6 Regarding the Mailer interview: below: who is he? I don't want any
trolling, but what is the gut association that your average educated
American has with the man?
J. Edgar Hoover : Cross Dressing
Joe McCarthy : HUAC / Communist Witch Hunt
:: Norman Mailer : __________________
Liberal and conservative reactions, please.
\_ he dated Marilyn Monroe for a while, right? That's about all I know
about him. Oh yeah, and he wrote some plays too?
\_ Is this a troll or are you actually this illiterate?
\_ WTF should I care about some Dead White Guy
\_ Best laugh I've had all day.
\_ He's a writer/novelist. Wrote _The Naked and the Dead_
stabbed his wife (in a drunken state -- he didn't kill her),
won a Pulitzer Prize for _Armies of the Night_. Also a boxing
fan. He got into a fight with Gore Vidal at a party once and,
of course, knocked Vidal down, to which Vidal responded,
"I see words fail you once again, Norman".
\_ This is exactly the stuff I'm looking for. Thx. -op
\_ Who is Normal Mailer and why should I care?
\_ McCarthy was in the senate and hence not part of HUAC.
\_ He held his own hearings in the Senate based on HUAC's precedent.
\_ It's how he feels, not what he thinks.
\_ I doubt "he" feels anything about HUAC or would even recognize
the acronymn.
\_ Since he used it, he probably feels something about it and
likely knows what it means.
\_ Thank you, yes I do know a bit about HUAC and I'm looking
for impressions of how Mailer fit into the zeitgeist of
the middle 20th C. |

write a perl script to take the input you save in notepad.exe,
put a plus sign "+" inbetween the numbers and pipe it through the
'bc' command, take the output from 'bc' and print it out, send a
fax of the photocopy of your printout to your boss's secretary

CDs and give to relatives.
\_ WinZip can open tar files, they don't need to understand
anything.
\_ zip supports multivolume archives. you can just create a big

before sending to friends. You will thank yourself years down the
road as your photo becomes more precious and display technology
continues to improve.
\_ Good point. --21" monitor guy
\_ Agreed. For 99% of your images, it won't matter, but for those
rare, spectacular images, you'll kick yourself if you're not
able to blow them up because you were trying to save $80 on
flash cards. -tom
\_ You need to improve your photography skill tom. :)
\_ You need to improve your critical eye. -tom
\_ Tom, can we see some of your "rare, spectacular images"
\_ http://www.whitehouse.com
\_ This was a serious request. I'd like to see some
of your pictures representing photographic quality,
not just "here is a picture of Grizzley Peak Road."
\_ But, tom, do you still believe that using JPEG as a format
is the way to go instead of the camera's raw mode or TIFF?
\_ I think RAW has some advantages in the camera->computer
transfer, but it doesn't work as a long-term storage
format, because RAW is not a standard. TIFF also has
standardization problems, and there isn't a preceptible
visual difference between uncompressed TIFF and top-quality
JPEG, so it's not worth the hassle and size of dealing with
TIFF. -tom
\_ ever do complex photo manipulation? JPG kills that.
JPEG's quantization produces numerous low bit differences
that just throws it all off.
\_ How do you define "complex photo manipulation"?
I certainly tweak my photos in Photoshop all the
time, and haven't noticed any problems. -tom
\_ How about PNG instead of say TIFF or RAW? lossless
compression format. --Jon
\_ Maybe I am missing something, but for storage,
why not just zip the file? -- ilyas
\_ I shoot all of my pictures in raw mode. Why throw away data
your camera gives you? I also use multiple 512MB CF cards instead
of one mondo 4GB card; I can back up each 512MB card to a cd and
then process them later. -meyers
\_ Let's hope you can open those raw files in some app 20 years
down the road. ;)
\_ If I really wanted to, I could trivally convert them to
36MB tiff files. When I switch to a photo editor that
doesn't support the RAW format of my camera, I might do
just that (and write my images to some higher capacity
medium). -meyers
\-let's state the obvious: the resolution and mode of shooting
obviously depends on the circumstances. if i am shooting
something live, i will shoot digital on continuous.
because of buffering and sheer volume, this is not
reasonable to do at +50meg per image ... unless maybe
you do a short burst and edit on the spot. also in high
contrast situations, also you are probably going to come
away with a better picture by shooting 5 lower #bits
pix and braketing a lot. face it ... you are shooting
at a bbq or picnic, or at a backyard party or a touch
football game in the park ... dont shoot 5megapixel TIFF.
nobody will care about those picture that much.
same for shooting with a long zoom and no tripod or medium
quality lens [e.g. when i was shooting covertly at stern
grove with at 300mm of live action].
grove at 300mm of live action].
on the other hand, you wake up before dawn and hike
to a spot in Yosemite Valley to shoot the early morning
light hitting the Wall of Early Morning Light on El Cap,
consider shooting at your best, lossless format ...
link:csua.org/u/8i1 i suppose you ought to look up
one of the web pages that advises how many pixels you
ought to aim for to print at various sizes, for those
rare pictures that will hit paper. n.b. i dont do heavy
digital modification. if you do, YMMV. --psb
\_ I shoot fine jpg (3072x2048, 180 dpi) on my digital rebel. I
find that this gives me the best results to work with when
trying to crop/scale the image down to 1680x1050 (my 20"
cinema display's native resolution).
\_ I save my canon photo's in both raw format and hi-res jpeg.
