The approval has been given to discontinue the creation of repositories for the i686 architecture in Fedora 31.

Posted on

The FESCo committee (Fedora Engineering Steering Committee), responsible for the technical development of the Fedora distribution, has approved the discontinuation of the main repositories for the i686 architecture. It should be noted that the initial consideration of this proposal was postponed to study the possible negative impact of discontinuing the supply of packages for i686 on local module builds. This decision complements the already implemented decision in the rawhide branch to stop the creation of bootable […]

There is quite a lot of ambiguity in this term. […]

Tanks on Pascal: how children were taught programming in the 90s and what was wrong with it.

Posted on

A bit about what school 'informatics' was like in the 90s and why all programmers were essentially self-taught back then. What kids were taught to program In the early 90s, Moscow schools began selectively outfitting classrooms with computers. The buildings immediately had bars placed on the windows and heavy, iron-clad doors installed. An informatics teacher appeared from somewhere (looking like the most important person […]

DoS attacks to reduce the performance of the Tor network

Posted on

A group of researchers from Georgetown University and the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory analyzed the resilience of the anonymous Tor network to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. Research on compromising the Tor network mainly revolves around censorship (blocking access to Tor), identifying requests through Tor in transit traffic, and analyzing the correlation of traffic flows before the entry node and after the exit node […]
