Update: after 17 sites and 11 CVs I’m pausing submissions. I need to re-focus on my lecture: https://mas.to/@markwyner/116559893895693710

My offer stands. If anyone needs a hand finding work, let me know. I’ve already reviewed 9 websites and 4 CVs. Which, by the way, were rad.

I keep seeing those layoffs and it makes me sad. Capitalism is punching down right now. Forcefully. Maybe I can help someone survive it. Hit me up if that’s you.

@cR0w Having a 9.3 in your captive portal is really impeccable ""None of you seem to understand. I'm not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with me" execution.

"[...] AI readiness is not primarily a technology capability. It is a leadership discipline: the capacity to decide what should move faster, what should slow down, and who has the authority to know the difference."

Should be a sign in every board room.

(imperva.com) The Agentic Age: How AI and Automation Are Redefining Internet Traffic and Cybersecurity Risks

Automated traffic now exceeds 53% of all web activity, with AI-driven agents and bots redefining cybersecurity risks. Financial services face 24% of bot attacks and 46% of account takeovers.

In brief - The rise of agentic automation is shifting internet traffic dominance from humans to machines, introducing structural risks to digital infrastructure. Financial sectors are primary targets, with identity systems and APIs under persistent threat. Organizations must evolve from bot detection to intent-based automation governance.

Technically - 27% of bot attacks now target API endpoints, enabling machine-speed exploitation while bypassing traditional UI defenses. AI agents mimic human behavior, complicating detection. Financial services are disproportionately impacted due to direct monetization opportunities. Adaptive security architectures must integrate API protection, behavioral analysis, and automation governance to address persistent, intent-ambiguous threats in machine-to-machine interactions.

Ghostty is leaving GitHub. I'm GitHub user 1299, joined Feb 2008. I've visited GitHub almost every single day for over 18 years. It's never been a question for me where I'd put my projects: always GitHub. I'm super sad to say this, but its time to go. https://mitchellh.com/writing/ghostty-leaving-github

but yeah, "on-call" - especially when you're expected to be on-call for an extended period of time? burns people the fuck out.
