Finally got a bot setup working against bookmyshow. Going as-safe as I can: fetch (and respect) robots.txt, cache strongly, and crawl _very slowly_ (10 requests in a minute or so).

I'm still having to scrape far more than I need (since I can't easily filter for Bangalore with their sitemap) […]

My homeserver went down yesterday, because a HDD cable disconnected. I use internal disks, but the server is kept behind my fridge where my cat often hides.

Not a big deal, caught in time - btrfs RAID1 switched to readonly after disk went missing. Brought it up online, and triggered a scrub […]

Won a Quiz last night, mostly thanks to my teammates. But was quite fun!

Also, finally got to visit the “Workplace of Wonders” building at Double Road. I’ve been seeing it under construction for the last year, and was curious who occupies it.

VC Firm it is (Lightspeed). Cool office, though - […]

I cannot signup for #puttingscene still because it only allows WhatsApp OTP (which needs me to accept the new ToS).

https://endoflife.date is 6yrs old now (started ~May 2019).

We crossed 17M impressions on Google Search this month.

Works without Javascript, no ads served, no money spent advertising, no fancy SEO.

Just trying to be helpful.

Created a documentation website for the jekyll sqlite plugin: https://captnemo.in/jekyll-sqlite/

I find large READMEs easier to maintain, but this is much more usable.

generator plugin to lets you use SQLite database instead of data files as a data source. It lets you easily create APIs and websites from a SQLite database, by linking together a database file, your template, and the relevant queries.

@medianama is covering NIXI's new stupid KYC policy for the .in TLD:

NIXI is the dumbest registry operator there could be. It’s now forcing a trifecta of silly changes:

- You need a mobile + email auth.
- Foreign entities need to demonstrate Indian business connection.
- KYC for everyone, including foreign nationals […]

Created a new page on my website to track various security reports I send out.

I don't often follow up on my reports, since these aren't for bounties. This is just to keep track of some of my "invisible" work. Since this is just a tracker, there's very little details […]

Ref: Recent #coindcx breach.

Was going through my emails, and I remembered I'd reached out to them in 2021 asking for clarifications on their Insurance, Audits, and Certifications.

In particular, their Certification (ISO 9001:2015) was meaningless, their Insurance was very limited in scope […]
