I'm not putting more than one egg in the Proton basket at any given moment. Security by obscurity is still a tried and true principle. Despite the politics, we are still tumbling toward a post encryption world whether we like it not

I am utterly offended by the term "neurospicy". It is reductive and doesn't benefit anyone except neurotypicals trying gaslight everyone for their bad behavior.

Http needs a status code for grudging acceptance. We have 202 Accepted. We need 222 Tolerated.

For when the client is doing it wrong, but you've decided to be the bigger person and deal with it anyway.

The fact that there is some raccoon paradise ranch somewhere is fulfilling. Piles of trash as far as the eye can see, no angry humans containing it in difficult to open receptacles, just bliss and a yearly sheering.

Ignorance, how I long for it. I was unfortunately bequeathed 3 entire brain cells.

Wild, true story from the security awareness and training company KnowBe4 that details how they inadvertently hired a North Korean hacker who was posing as a Western tech worker.

Kudos to them for publishing this. If it can happen to a security awareness company, it can happen to anyone (full disclosure: they've been an advertiser on my site for ages).

You assume NASA has a budget to hire someone to champion this and didn't just hire some employees' kids to host the videos for free on the social medias.
