    Yes and no. The auditing is likely the harder part. You can use something like tailscale or nebula vpn to get the always on vpn/ACLs. With a dozen or two devices, it should be doable at a home scale.

    If you want clientless zerotrust then you’re talking heavier duty things like Palo alto gear and the like.

    ZeroTrust is a specific type of network security where every network device has its access to other devices validated and controlled, not a statement on the trustworthiness of vendors.

    Instead of every device on a LAN seeing every other device, or even every device on a VLAN seeing other devices on a VLAN, each device can only connect with the other devices it needs to work, and those connections need to be encrypted. These connectioms are all monitored, logged and alerted on to make sure the system is working as intended.

    You do need to trust or validate the tooling that does the above, regardless of what you’re using.








  • Yup, there’s the justification right on time. They had to abandon basic civility and professionalism to “hit their targets.”

    Thats why they can be abusive, ignore the company process for tickets, threaten their coworkers, whatever they want. They need to “stay on parnet track” and “hit their targets.” No one else has any stressors or requirements at their workplace, just the lawyers.

    Nevermind that the “support staff” make sure lots of people, processes and services work, and may individually be more important to “hitting targets” for the company as a whole than any individual lawyer.

    How about the lawyers “do their job” by interacting with their coworkers professionally? By submitting tickets correctly and in a timely manner?

    Abusing your coworkers is never justified.


  • He doesnt talk about pictures at all. That was someone elses supposition.

    It’s not clear from the snippet of text what the issue is, but it sure looks like he opened up the folder ACLs and found that his account wasn’t “Owner” for some folder/files, and now hes mad that he is being made to elevate his own account for that folder, because “He is the OWNER!” of the files in a property rights context.


  • Windows defaults to giving a user access to common folders like a desktop, pictures, etc. Most never need anymore access to internal folders.

    The fact that Andrew has the permissions settings open enough to discover “owner” but doesnt understand what any of it is means and instead launched a “don’t tread on me” screed about his “dominion of all things mine” implies that he fucked up, not Microsoft.




  • It can be. I often find it “bursty.” I’ve had months at a time when I had stand-ups and then “do whatever you want” for the rest of the day. I generally did do useful work, but there were plently of days when I was just chilling out.

    Ive also had months where I ran from fire to fire while on fire, spreading even more fire. Also, there was fire.

    It juat depends. If some org treats you as disposable, pays like shit and lights your hair on fire as you walk in, y’all should walk back out. The next org will probally treat you better, because there are good orgs out there. Even the good places get busy for a bit though. Just make sure that busy comes with money and that it ends at some point.




  • All over the article you posted:

    and since Floorp currently has no advertising, my own salary is, of course, zero. It’s just not going to last.

    I have made many plans, including earning development money on this projects, but all have been derailed by open source projects.


    There is some code in the closed source code to prepare for this. If these are forked, my hundreds of hours will have been wasted.


    The purpose is to learn how to publish code that cannot be used for forking as open source.

    I have to obligate the folks to choose whether they want to pay me or help me code.

    So hes forked the open source Firefox, added some polish, and is now miffed that others have taken his forked project and forked it themselves, because it cuts off a possible income stream he had planned. That code, the things he intended to profit from, is whats hidden in the “closed source” part of the repo. He says he will open source it eventually, likely after he figures out a way to profit from all of the code Mozilla kindly let him fork for free.

    He doesnt want anyone else to profit from the hundreds of hours of code hes added to the millions of hours of free code hes currently trying to profit from. This is of course a very reasonable and consistent moral stance in line with common open source principles.
