My take from the #NHLDraft tonight. I found out that Justin Bieber is the Toronto Maple Leafs GM. I did not know that. #GoLeafsGo #NHL #AmateurHour

If even someone as inexpert as me sees the flaws in the Federal government's approach to the "problem" that #Mythhos presents, it's a near inevitability that people with larger platforms and greater focus and expertise will point them out, as well.

Shit like this is why you don't gut #CISA and your other guardians.

No failover for the Commerce Secretary

The US government switched off Anthropic's two best models for every customer on Friday evening. Your disaster-recovery plan has a runbook for an outage, yet nothing for a letter from Commerce.

Is fostering online crackpottery a sort of Distributed Espionage strategy?

Look at the case below, where some nutballs developed a nutball theory and then proceeded to garnish that nutballery with actual national security information that they sleuthed up on their spare time.

Now consider anti-vaxxers, flat-earthers, Qanon-ers, etc. How easy would it be to covertly direct these groups of belligerent far-right wingnuts at something, as a way to enact espionage or sabotage?
It's already shown itself "useful" as an assassination tool, and even when openly directing the crackpots to kill, there were no consequences (Trump).

Yesterday, I learned tamales aren't finger food when I picked one up and tried to bite through the wrapping. The restaurant staff was very kind in letting me know I was doing it wrong. I will be back for more.
