A message comes in: a website is not responding. Or rather, it responds but it crawls.
It is a WordPress with a few plugins, all in good shape.I log in and the load is near zero, traffic is tiny. I start digging and nothing makes sense. I run the command "w" and the machine is frozen.
Nothing in the logs.
Then the light bulb goes on:
"ping bsd.cafe"No resolution.
The provider’s upstream DNS servers (set in a hurry, I normally install a local unbound) are not responding and everything grinds to a halt. I switch the DNS servers and everything magically starts working again.
Of course it was DNS! 🙂

@stefano DNS - it's in the DNA of the web 😉

@stefano if the system is so heavily dependent on the DNS resolver ("frozen"), I would dig deeper, as there could be much more to it

@winfried the "w" command will, by default, try to resolve the ip addresses into hostnames - that's why it is slow if the resolver isn't responding properly.
As for Wordpress - many of the plugins they are currently using depend on external calls. -

Un semplice quizzino linguistico-matematico
PRIMUS INTER PARES
Secondo me questa è talmente semplice che non dovrebbe avere difficoltà a trovare la risposta anche chi ha sempre sostenuto di avere difficoltà con la matematica. Comunque la risposta con microspiegazione la trovate sul mio sito https://wok.oblomov.eu/mathesis/primus-inter-pares/

a) yet not maximally local
b) attractors ain't everything. the world also needs repellors

Che cosa buffa la cancellazione automatica dei post. L'ho impostata perché gestire la mia microistanza mi ha fatto capire la mole di spazio che occupano le nostre cazzate sui social. La prima reazione: l'ansia di essermi persa qualcosa di fondamentale. È un bell'esercizio di non-attaccamento.

This is the early evening edition of the news.
The recent fight in the House of Representatives was over the open housing
section of the Civil Rights Bill.
Brought traditional enemies together but it left the defenders of the
measure without the votes of their strongest supporters.
President Johnson originally proposed an outright ban covering discrimination
by everyone for every type of housing but it had no chance from the start
and everyone in Congress knew it.
A compromise was painfully worked out in the House Judiciary Committee.
In Los Angeles today comedian Lenny Bruce died of what was believed to be an
overdoes of narcotics.
Bruce was 42 years old.
Dr. Martin Luther King says he does not intend to cancel plans for an open
housing march Sunday into the Chicago suburb of Cicero.
Cook County Sheriff Richard Ogleby asked King to call off the march and the
police in Cicero said they would ask the National Guard to be called out
if it is held.
King, now in Atlanta, Georgia, plans to return to Chicago Tuesday.
In Chicago Richard Speck, accused murderer of nine student nurses, was brought
before a grand jury today for indictment.
The nurses were found stabbed and strangled in their Chicago apartment.
In Washington the atmosphere was tense today as a special subcommittee of the
House Committee on Un-American activities continued its probe into anti-
Vietnam war protests.
Demonstrators were forcibly evicted from the hearings when they began chanting
anti-war slogans.
Former Vice-President Richard Nixon says that unless there is a substantial
increase in the present war effort in Vietnam, the U.S. should look forward
to five more years of war.
In a speech before the Convention of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in New York,
Nixon also said opposition to the war in this country is the greatest single
weapon working against the U.S.
That's the 7 o'clock edition of the news,
Goodnight.
