@Viss docker? I hardly know 'er :neobot_giggle:

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today.

Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man. Just last month, on Sept. 14, he turned 90, on the same day Brad and I celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary. I will always treasure that he and I shared that date.

Walter was more than Chekov. He was a writer, a teacher, a thoughtful man, and a loyal friend. To the fans who loved him for so many years, thank you. He loved you too.

Rest well, my dear friend. Keep navigating a steady course.

– George

While everyone (including us) was losing their heads about PHP and Brotli, our community was tracking a widespread WhatsApp Phishing campaign in Europe. Domains and TTPs in this excellent thread.

On the business side alone, Anthropic said it has posted net losses every year since it was founded in 2021. In the first half of 2026 it lost $80.7 billion and "may not achieve or sustain profitability in the future."

I have no content and I must post.

I'm just so happy and relieved at this result. Massive respect and thanks to everyone who fought so hard for this outcome. Solidarity for the tough work ahead!

There was a steal my bitcoin challenge which offered some bitcoin if the PHP instance could be compromised. It was won after 19.28 hours.

The solution exploit has been posted, which I've confirmed to work.

From the exploit:

The offsets and multipart shapes are calibrated for the challenge's observed Alpine PHP 8.4.26 layout.

Which was presumably observable from the live server. The exploit targets a combination of stock nginx:1.27-alpine and php:8.4.26-fpm-alpine3.23 docker images that talk to each other via the php development CLI server. Note that this is probably not representative of what you might see in the real world, and more like what you might see in a CTF.

However, what you might see in the real world with a real product might be even more terrifying, such as current products that are built on FreeBSD versions too old to even support ASLR.

Gonna need someone to explain how much I should trust the revenue and opex numbers in Anthropic's filing for IPO.

Cardiologists have agreed the first truly global definition of a heart attack. The European Society of Cardiology, American College and Heart Association, and World Heart Federation jointly recognised three under-diagnosed heart attack types that disproportionately hit women, including spontaneous coronary artery dissection, which strikes mostly during or after pregnancy.

Never, ever, ever, ever, ever attempt to move a piano yourself. Hire piano movers — not just movers, but •piano• movers. The potential damage to humans and houses is so much larger than the extra cost of hiring the right person for the job, there’s just no comparison.

I don’t care if you did it before and didn’t die. I don’t care if the movers seem really strong though. Don’t.

The Piano Book goes in depth about this with some (true!) horror stories. I’m just surfacing it because it’s such an easy mistake to make, and because “preventable safety hazard!” is one of my favorite genres.
