 jonhermansen | So... I shouldn't search on hydra? I didn't have much problem with that until yesterday, now I get canceling statement due to statement timeout | 18:59:54 |
 K900 | What are you searching for? | 19:00:37 |
| jonhermansen | Just wanted to see the build history for a package: trenchbroom | 19:00:40 |
| K900 | Use search.nixos.org instead | 19:01:03 |

| K900 | Ugh didn't capture cursor | 19:01:27 |
| K900 | The "x86_64-linux" link goes to Hydra | 19:01:32 |
| jonhermansen | Ahh, thank you! | 19:01:51 |
| K900 | Last eval 2024-02 | 19:02:30 |
| K900 | Great | 19:02:31 |
| jonhermansen | search query performance is improved due to ElasticSearch cache | 19:02:34 |
| K900 | Oh, freeimage dep | 19:03:00 |
| jonhermansen | I'm cleaning up dependents of openimage library in the tree now | 19:03:02 |
| jonhermansen | err yeah freeimage. | 19:03:06 |
| K900 | Those didn't eval for over a year at this point | 19:04:14 |
| K900 | Just delete the damn thing | 19:04:17 |

| K900 | You know it's a good one when the CVE list doesn't fit on the screen | 19:04:52 |
| jonhermansen | Yup. I tried looking to see if the broken package I found could even be saved, but no. The discussion upstream went nowhere, so I figured it's a good chance to clean up unused code | 19:06:26 |
| jonhermansen | I added trenchbroom to my system packages and it blew everything up because of this throw, so I went down the rabbithole.
pkgs/by-name/li/libjpeg_turbo/package.nix: dev_private = throw "not supported anymore";
Anyways, thanks for the help, I'll use search.nixos.org next time | 19:07:35 |

 cleverca22 | my hydra is being swamped by some kind of scrapper/bot/ddos
they are just recursively following every link on every page, ignoring robots.txt, and causing performance problems
user-agents are total garbage, even claiming to be things like macos on ppc, or linux on ppc
no cookies
every ip hits me up once, and then never comes back!
what can be done to block this kind of garbage? | 15:21:14 |
 ma27 | I essentially stole https://github.com/NixOS/infra/blob/7ee3f5c95beda825b742580178f84034ec48aa9c/non-critical-infra/hosts/staging-hydra/hydra-proxy.nix#L9 | 15:25:41 |
| ma27 | and it's working surprisingly well | 15:25:49 |
