I noticed that a *lot* of the crawlers/bots we see on www.bbc.co.uk & www.bbc.com are spoofed e.g. a "Meta" crawler coming from 10s of different small ISPs across the world (the real one comes from a Meta ASN).
I deployed a change this morning which adds source ASN validation (alongside user-agent string analysis) to our "known crawlers/bots" classifier & well, the results speak for themselves. Attached graphs show RPS from "known crawlers/bots" to www.bbc.co.uk & www.bbc.com.

Clarification; when I say movie poster I meant VHS cover art, lol.
IMO cover art is part of the home movie experience.

Suddenly reminded that the Japanese artist Osamu Sato (the person behind "LSD: Dream Emulator") released a book called "The Art of Computer Designing: A Black and White Approach" and it's such a great book of how to do digital art with simple shapes.

I'm sorry to break it to you but the yoyodyne snakebots are only crawling through staged earthquake rubble for the PR videos. once they get that sweet sweet government contract they'll be installing the venom sprayers to the sensor cluster so that when it's deployed in the trenches it can evoke "shock and awe" in the enemy. it's on the internal roadmap, you see
