My talk from last weekend's Hack Glasgow event. The parents being blamed are mostly metaphorical.

This one has a very subtle message and agenda, as you can probably tell.

Yep. Not just in OSINT. We're going to keep seeing this pattern cropping up until people realise that AI doesn't think.

Like a drunk at the bar or a politician, it just confidently blathers.

First of a number of articles I'm putting together on the Festival International des Jeux in Cannes this year. Particularly enjoyed this one, had a really good smell about it.

Other than Cortex Challenge I hadn't encountered games which use scent until this year, but after finding the prototype of WHIFF I discovered a range of them - including a kit from SentoSphere which is designed to re-train your sense of smell after suffering from COVID-19.

What the Nose Knows: How a Neuroscience-Inspired Game Makes Scents | HackerNoon

What do board games, neuroscience, brain hacking, and common scents have in common? The answer is WHIFF, a prototype board game developed by neuroscientists.

Just had an AI generated sales call supposedly from British gas.

I can't quite explain the irrational rage that overcame me, but I am now completely against ever using British Gas or recommending them under any circumstances.

Heard about the NCSC paper on forgivable and unforgivable vulnerabilities?

Delighted and excited to announce that on the 15th of March I will be up in Lancaster to speak at LUHack's Hackademia 2025 event at Lancaster University.

It's a talk that I think has been needed for a long time in the cyber security industry, "Stop Buying New Sh!t".

Saw the crows on the walk around the lake today and said hello, then a heron spotted waiting to annoy the anglers.
On today's walk around the lake, after initial hesitation all three crows came down to collect monkey nuts. Progress is slow but steady.
