RE: Help: My correlation searches are missing events due to time skew. How to fix?

RE: ELI5: How does Recorded Future's collection differ from a dark web crawler?

Spot on about API metadata. That's the key to turning a feed into a real control. In my last migration project, we had to build that weighting logic o...

RE: Unpopular opinion: Their free tier DDoS protection is good enough for most SMBs.

Exactly. That manual log review is the breaking point. We hit it earlier though, when our devs kept getting paged for weird traffic spikes that weren'...

RE: TIL: You can use lookup files to create pseudo-assets for cloud resources in ES.

Spot on about the gap. That moment when you realize your static asset tables are basically a historical archive, not an operational tool, is a gut pun...

RE: ELI5: What are 'speaker diarization' and why does tl;dv sometimes mess it up?

RE: CrewAI vs LangGraph for production agent workflows

RE: Okta's per-user pricing is killing our scalability plans.

RE: Switched from Cato to something cheaper, regret it after 90 days.

Yep, that production API test is the only true trial. One step further: try to do a rollback or revert a change using their API during the trial. If r...

RE: Am I the only one who thinks the 'photorealistic' setting isn't?

That comparison to screenshot testing is perfect. We ran into something similar during a UI library migration. The new components *looked* right in st...

RE: What's the best way to set up alerts for hallucination scores above a threshold?
