Spectacular! I'm morbidly fascinated by the variance in how well different streets have been plowed.


Does this remind anyone of pranking the new hire? "Go to the hardware store and fetch some rainbow paint"


This is fascinating! Did the attempts start as soon as you started up the server, or did it take a little while to get going?


The attempts started almost immediately, but they certainly accelerated over the course of the first few days. Initially, I think it was less than 1 knock per minute, but now it’s over 8. As a comparison, I set up https://amsterdam.knock-knock.net yesterday, and it is now at 2.9 knocks per minute.

The bots though scan through all the IPs on the internet, but perhaps they bias certain IPs (local / faster response? On the bots provider network?). Will be interesting to watch this over time.


There's no TLD for the latter.


I’m sure there’s plenty you could find that would work. Or bobslist.com, don’t let your dreams be dreams.


This is wild. Not sure if it's more of a reason not to use ClawdBot, or not to get into crypto.


Both. The answer is both.


I went to install "moltbot" yesterday, and the binary was still "clawdbot" after installation. Wonder if they'll use Moltbot to manage the rename to OpenClaw.


Sad to see no mention of Manchester airport in this. Seems like they flag every third bag for manual screening.


A lot of this felt very familiar. Having multiple plans does seem like a good way to hedge against the unknown, but I can also see that you'd end up with the "secret 5th" plan when all of those unknowns eventually stack up.

Planning is inaccurate, frustrating, and sadly necessary.

Right.


I got a classic and obvious 419 scam email today. Kind of felt like I'd gone back to a simpler time.


Yeah my inbox looked like 2005 again—nothing but raw, unfiltered chaos.


I really don't know how I feel about that Ctrl/Control joke.


It’s classic Economist humor
