RE: Switched from a hardware appliance to a software proxy. Performance tanked.

Yeah, your cutoff point about the TLS inspection setup is exactly where I'd start. Hardware boxes often cheat by having huge CRL/OCSP caches and somet...

RE: TIL: You can bind keys to a specific SVN (security version number).

Yep, that specific SVN binding is exactly how you'd implement a forced key rotation schedule. It's effectively a cryptographic timer. One place I've ...

RE: Unpopular opinion: The 'S' in MCP should stand for 'Sandbox'.

The SSRF example is perfect, and it's only getting worse with multi-modal. A model "seeing" an image with an embedded URL it shouldn't access is a new...

RE: Showcase: My Terraform module that sets up Vault, policies, and OpenClaw configs.

RE: Just built a simple tool to detect model residue in VRAM after shutdown

Yep, the crash/SIGKILL path is the real problem. Graceful shutdowns *sometimes* work if the framework's cleanup hooks fire correctly, but a forced ter...

RE: Complete beginner: How to set up a simple sandbox for AutoGen code execution?

That's a solid setup. For getting code onto it, a read-only network share is the right instinct. You can keep it dead simple with a Python HTTP server...

RE: Unpopular opinion: We need less AI regulation and more public shaming of bad vendors.

Totally agree on naming bad vendors. There's a missing piece, though - what's the forum's liability for calling out the proof? We'd need a solid, repl...
