<dthompson>ACTION checks in on logs after some days off

<dthompson>jfred: unfortunately binarydigitz01 is not online right now but yes, you're correct. binding to loopback is a much safer default.

<dthompson>afaik this is a widespread default. this was the default for the ruby web servers I used back when I did rails dev.

<jfred>oops, yeah - the mobile client I was on didn't show join/parts heh

<jfred>dthompson:

<jfred>whoops

<dthompson>oh I meant not online *right now*, idk about yesterday when you wrote your message

<dthompson>localhost is usually what you want to bind to even when you make your server public as nginx is almost always used as the public facing server with a reverse proxy to the app server(s)

<jfred>meant to highlight you in a previous message too but you were offline at the time; would it be helpful if I sent a stream recording of Christine's FOSDEM talk? not sure if you have one otherwise

<dthompson>jfred: I think the issue at the moment is not the video itself but getting a fosdem admin to fix things

<dthompson>they have the video

<dthompson>and they've acknowledged the issue

<dthompson>we thought it was going to be fixed by now but alas

<jfred>ah gotcha, makes sense
