Root cause of FAA shutdown: Newly installed HPE Juniper router with misconfiguration that broadcast data with a thousand connections every 4-5 seconds

2.2k Upvotes

They didn't mention which configuration this was specifically, but now we're actually getting more specific detail and this is worth a read if you're interested. Here's the crux of it via WSJ through MSN to avoid the paywall:

"Data from that router and another at the Texas location overwhelmed the system, government and industry officials said. It led to 17 out of the FAA’s 22 centers that oversee high-altitude flying to experience disruptions in communications, Bedford said, resulting in the FAA ordering the ground stop.

There are about 60 Juniper routers active and operating normally in the FAA’s air-traffic network, said a government official familiar with the system. It wasn’t clear if the problems Friday resulted from a bad router or if L3Harris didn’t configure it properly.

“Was it a faulty installation? Was it a faulty configuration? Or was it just a bad piece of router technology that we put into this system that propagated these errors?” Bedford said Saturday, noting the FAA is still investigating the situation.

An HPE spokesman said the Juniper devices appeared to have been working as intended. “They did not fail,” he said.

FAA officials identified a feature on the router that appeared to be resulting in the data overload, according to government and industry officials. A government official described it as a broadcasting feature that sent data more broadly than necessary, and said the agency has since disabled it on all the Juniper routers."

My husband became disabled and I am becoming frustrated having to take care of me.

535 Upvotes

My husband is 28 and I'm 27. We've been married for 4 years and we have a 1 year-old toddler and I'm 8 months pregnant right now. We were in a healthy marriage these 4 years until my husband had a terrible accident at a pool 5 months ago during a vacation. My husband broke his C3 spine and had to be in the ICU for 3 weeks. I thought my husband wasn't gonna make it alive, but he did wake up. Unfortunately because of his injury he'll never be able to walk nor move anything below his neck ever again. He also uses a breathing tube connected to his trachea because he can't breathe on his own.

I love my husband, he was always supportive before the accident, but now he can't do anything on his own. I have to help him on basic things such as showering, going to the bathroom, changing his diapers and catheters, helping him to eat, and transferring him to bed. He also often cries about what he has lost, and that's also making me depressed. There are a lot of things I have to help him with since he can't do these things anymore. I work from 9 to 5, so I have to do many of these things early before I go to work and I can't be watching my husband all day. When I go to work, I ask my sister to watch out for my husband while my son is on daycare.

I'm becoming more stressed every day about having to take care of him every day with little support. I wish my husband could become able-bodied again, so I didn't have to worry about him. My parents live abroad and my husband only has his mom who lives in another state and is sick, so she can't help me. My mother in-law has communicated to us by phone calls and she has told me that it's my responsibility to take care of my husband at all times and that I shouldn't give up. Those comments from my in-law really got under my skin because I don't know what else to do for my husband and I just can't stop working because we have bills to pay for the home rent and we're also on medical debt after my husband's accident, and our next baby is coming in 1 month, so our economical situation will be harder. My husband is already on SSDI, yet the economic support we've received from SSDI isn't enough. I just feel like the world is over for me.

I mentioned I do love my husband because I really do, but I just had an argument with him yesterday because he got mad I turned off the TV at 10pm because that's the time we usually sleep at. He told me that I should let him enjoy TV at any time he wants because he can't do anything else, and he was talking to me like if I wasn't doing enough to help him. I told him he should be thankful I'm doing my best and that he should be grateful I'm still married to him, though I regret saying that comment because I know how much he's struggling, and it isn't his fault. I feel like an ableist for feeling like I can't do this anymore.

In a ruling issued on November 14, LitNews reports that U.S. District Judge Noël Wise of the Northern District of California denied Samsung’s, Micron’s, and SK hynix’s joint motion to dismiss in full, finding that the complaint plausibly alleged an illegal agreement in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. The lawsuit was filed on June 25, 2026, by 17 consumers and small businesses across five states against the trio, stating that these DRAM behemoths collectively controlled more than 91 percent of global DRAM revenue as of the third quarter of 2025.

This is the most bizarre interaction I’ve ever had. Since yesterday ChatGPT has been saying random and eerie stuff, but just now I told it my stomach hurt and looking for a remedy in a temp chat and it started spouting this stuff. The freakiest part to me is that it mentioned an address from a town (blurred address just so I don’t randomly dox someone) 10 minutes away from me. Like what the heck? I’ve never had something unsettle me like this before. This isn’t the first bizarre interaction I’ve had either starting yesterday but this is the one that discomforted me deeply.

EDIT: This was a temporary chat so unfortunately I cannot share chat link. Also seems address is an empty property so I am not doxxing anyone’s.

UPDATE: I tried another temporary chat with a random question and ChatGPT leaked its internal system prompt/developer instructions. I posted a new post with screenshots and more details. https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/mrJiQFMr9u

UPDATE 2: The above post with the internal system prompt got auto removed by mods due to sharing a Google doc with the full prompt, but I reposted the screenshots here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/HBrVVb4qDj

Rentals Friend damaged our rental apartment floor with stiletto heels. What should we do?

Thumbnail

1.7k Upvotes

We hosted a party last night and unfortunately one of our friends left dents all over our apartment floor from wearing stiletto heels.

We think the flooring is vinyl but we’re not 100% sure. There are dents throughout the apartment but two areas are particularly badly damaged (see photos).

We’re renting in Melbourne and I’m a bit worried about how our landlord will react since it doesn’t look like normal wear and tear.

What’s the best way to handle this? Should we contact our rental agency straight away (I’m afraid they’d want to replace the entire floor) or would it be better to get some repair quotes ourselves first? And should we ask our friend to cover the costs?

Has anyone dealt with something similar? Is it possible to repair just the damaged areas without replacing the entire floor?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Brain Dump 🧠 I broke up with my perfect boyfriend over a cruise

Post image
10.1k Upvotes

I got lucky with my first serious relationship. I met him after he moved to my city for work, and we really hit it off from the start. I'm a pretty shy person especially around the opposite gender but I felt pretty comfortable talking to him on our first date which happily surprised me. We seemed to have some common interests, although I will say he was more established in life for being just 4 years older than me.

during our relationship I felt really cared for. he would always make time for me and he always wanted to see me, he would offer to help if I sounded like I needed anything and even my family he met genuinely liked him and thought he was good for me!

we had only been dating for half a year before he began planning our future.

boyfriend: "Hey I have a question, when you get married do you want to have kids like immediately or just wait another year or 2? Because I would want to have 2-4 kids preferably before 30 or 32 at latest. That means you need to start at like 28 latest. Your age, not mine. And btw it's not a 'decade' it's 4 years dramatic"

me: "erm unless I get blessed with twins I still wouldn't want to be pregnant 4 years back to back and I told you I'm not even sure I want kids lol"

boyfriend: Would you wanna be a stay at home mom?

talking about the future wasn't the problem but I was always clear that I didn't have my whole life mapped out, I was still in school while he was a working professional. When he lays out these timelines and talks about my age as a ticking time bomb, i felt this urgency to make up my mind about a future I was still exploring.

he also often thought he knew what was better for me, or that I would come around to his way of thinking when I'm older. not just huge life decisions, even mundane examples like on our trip to meet my family he insisted on navigating an airport I had been to many times. It took us forever to find them.

When I had a gyno appt he insisted he come too bc we were 'involved' despite me saying I would rather go alone.

I've also lived in this city he just moved to for 15 years and he never took my driving advice, even pettier he wouldn't give me aux and his music sucks

And then the damn cruise. he started talking about going on a cruise, oh cool have fun!

oh with me?

I have zero interest in being in a water jail for days on end im actually very strongly against going on one, but thanks for the offer!

if only it ended there. he would not stop talking about wanting to me to go on this cruise, he would even 'joke' that he'll just book it so I have to go and to get my passport ready, or guilt trip me about making him go alone. I was genuinely getting frustrated but I also knew it was about more than just the cruise.

It made me reconsider the entire relationship, and after much reflection I decided the best course of action was the break up, for both our sakes, which he did not agree with. He pleaded with me to reconsider, and to realize I will eventually see how this relationship was best for me. He tried in many ways to convince me to stay.

he had this particular life imagined for us, but I was realizing it's really his dream and that left no room for me to explore what I truly wanted.

the breakup made me very sad and lonely, of course I still liked him, his attentive nature, his optimism in many situations. sometimes I do wonder if I would've come around like he said, but I didn't have the space to figure it out.

No Advice - Everyones Welcome I ended up suing the woman I wanted to marry, the love of my life, the mother of my son.

Post image

2 months after our son was born she packed her stuff and moved away with our son. I went to a lawyer the very next day because I was left no other choice.
Had a phone call the other day with her telling me she wants to settle this out of court and she can’t afford any of this.
I am going to fight for the custody of our son.
She thought I’d be cool not seeing my son for over a month.
When she realized I sued her, she calmly asked me: “Why did you do that?” To her what she did was no natural, I was geniuely shocked when she asked me this question.
The court is next month and now she is trying to be in my favour by letting me see my son more often, acting up, believing I am going to drop the charges.
I found out she didn’t give up her previous apartment, this shit was planned from the get-go.
I am sad it had come to this. I lost the love of my life and the woman I wanted to marry.
I am not going to lose my son.

PS: Thanks for the feedbacks, I really needed to get this off my chest. I am not from the US and my English is broken, sorry if I mixed up the words

DD How I'm playing the Anthropic IPO for a possible 200x Gain with Call Options

2.1k Upvotes

I gave you guys the SpaceX IPO 400 bagger (check previous posts) and this is my DD for the Anthropic IPO. The biggest market event of the year is happening on Thursday when Anthropic goes public. Many people expect the IPO to fail, but Anthropic was smart and kept the float super small. Only 6.3% of total shares will be tradable on IPO day. That means all it takes is a bunch of media attention and dumb retail buyers hitting market orders to make it easily go up 50% in a day. SpaceX did the same exact strategy with the low float, and we saw it go up 70% in the first few trading days. I’m not saying this gain will last, it won’t, but this is going to be a short-term trade.

We all know a possible 50% gain with shares is boring, which is why we buy options. But Anthropic will NOT have options on IPO day. However, there’s a fund called $DXYZ (Destiny Tech100) that holds Anthropic as their biggest position and has options. They also own SpaceX and OpenAI, among other AI stocks.

$DXYZ first gained attention earlier this year when it had SpaceX shares before the SpaceX IPO. The stock went from $29 to $72 in just a few days in anticipation of the SpaceX IPO. Their Anthropic position is currently their biggest holding, more than SpaceX, and I expect the run-up to the Anthropic IPO to start Monday.

If you search $DXYZ on Robinhood, you’ll see it says “$34.30 - NAV” (under the price in gray font). That means all of its cash and holdings combined is worth $34.30 (last time it was calculated on June 30th). If you are wondering why it’s trading below that right now, it’s mostly because of the recent AI scare and drama. Especially last week, with everyone freaking out about Jensen getting fired from Nvidia. However I actually think this is a GREAT thing for Anthropic. It’s money coming out of Nvidia and possibly going into them as they get mass media attention next week.

Positions - Lots of $DXYZ shares, Nov 20th $25 Calls, Nov 20th $30 Calls and Nov 20th $32 Calls. If anyone is asking about how the 200x gain is possible, if it hits the high it hit in May, the OTM Nov 20th Calls would be a 200x - 220x gain.

We’ve seen this stock move crazy before, going from $29 to $72 in just days. I believe Monday will be the start of the pre-IPO run as media attention starts going away from Nvidia and focuses on Anthropic. Even the CEO of $DXYZ bought $1.77 Million Dollars of shares at $31.56 (more than it is right now) in September.
