My first method eliminates waiting to see if your students code runs fast enough. Unless complexity is part of the assignment, I’d still say go for the hash.

It’s also less work for the professor/grader.

I mean just for the love of God don’t spin up something on your company’s infrastructure that accepts file uploads.

Just don’t.

If you’re reading this and going “well, it’s just internal,” or “well, it doesn’t do much it just accepts this exact file type.” My god. Ask your CISA. And if they’re okay with it, cool. That’s on them.

Unless your whole business is transferring files, don’t. And even then… Don’t.

And if you’re still confused, the answer is to use another company’s infrastructure for this. Use Azure. Use AWS. Use Google cloud or even g suites. Don’t accept that liability. Let the trillionaires do it.

Why give your students a way to get RCE on your institutions servers through anything less than perfect file upload implementation.

For a .tar? I wish you the best…

Instead of that, simplify.

Use unique salts for each assignment per student.

Align hashes with those salts to check the outcome for each students assignment.

Literally have them send you a CTF style sha256 string.

Do it step by step where each step doesn’t depend on the next, grade as a percentage of flags accurately procured.

For getting your stuff available over the internet, y I recommend a secure tunnel with wire guard between your vps and servers running the services.

Make your vps an authentication portal using stuff like Authelia and Fail2ban.

If you’re really needing out, get ELK stood up for free and get agents on your containers/services to keep visibility into any potential… Anything

Fr where are these 9% holdouts?

I finally got my home services covered with my website’s wildcard ssl. Which is great, because now I can setup ELK Stack and setup an auth portal on my vps, and get Plex and gitlab out of the house securely.

Be smart and keep it all on thumb drives.

I sounds like a cheer.

N CM PC PP!

It’s probably more than that daily.

Send this meme to your HR department and ask if it is safe for work

Seconded.

There’s a lot of reasons to hate Microsoft. There’s a lot of reasons to hate Windows 11.

Their explorer is’t one of them. The new context menus when you right click anywhere is, sure. But explorer and notepad got righteous upgrades.

Hey still fuck Sinclair like forever though.

If you don’t have a specific goal, here are some ideas.

Build a NAS.

Use a bunch of small PCs or pis, build a CA, a DNS server. Make an db server and an app server.

Get shit running on your network.

Suit them all up with ELK stack.

Misbehave on your own network. Go find evidence for your misbehaving.

DoS yourself.

Without goals it’s tough to give ideas beyond general like this.

Maybe instead of complaining, provide the summary yourself? Be the change you want to see in the world!

I am happy to watch the video and see no issues with people using Lemmy for its intended purposes.

It’s to curb gas theft. They’re making sure you can fill the RV before you fill the RV.

Honestly the HTTP 1.1 Must Die from black hat really makes me think that every govt has 0days on everything.

The desk setup is really nice (standing desk, hidden cabling for the screens), everything is clean

Yeah 10/10 good job on hiding those cables. The desk is pretty thin so hiding all the power supply and display port or HDMI cables, as well as keeping all the other cables (I mean, that mic surely has an XLR cable, where’s the audio interface?!) from peripherals well hidden. I mean, maintaining the level of cleanliness is difficult. Anywhere but an illustration.

Basically all of astronomy, we have no “why” for any of it.

“Ah, we’ve deduced that about 27% of the universe is made of… Dark matter. Don’t ask. But more importantly…68% is made of dark energy. Also do not ask.”

I wouldn’t say setting up a reverse proxy (to your home LAN) is painful. Its just generally Ill advised. Its painful if compromised.

It does work for this use case.

You don’t need to, you can use wire guard.

Mullvad is the only VPN you can pay for with cash and actually remain untraced.
