Jinna Han was a beautiful skater. I wish she had the chance to grow up and become US champion. She worked so hard. So sad.

Just say “Israelis attacked”. It’s not that hard.

Incredible episode of The Ancients describing “the copper scroll” of the Dead Sea scrolls, hypothesizing it contains directions to treasure hidden by Jews in the 2nd century during the Bar Kochva revolt. First time I’ve heard of this artifact. Incredible.

Chag Sameach to all who celebrate. What a day.

Today one of my students asked me how I keep up with all the infosec news. Answered: I used to get it all from twitter. And now, I either read @dangoodin's writings or pop into mastodon every once in a while.

I do miss the pre-musk days, tho.

@jonfle yes, TACACS+ is still in use.

@Drbruced @goldbe No, the RFC could not have refused to publish (the days of that are long long gone).

This came out of a working group, so the WG and the IESG approved it. The security considerations are good, but there should have been a disclaimer up front, in the abstract and introduction. And sec 10.5 should be stand-alone right after sec 9 and before the current list of flaws in 10.

I stand by my earlier comment.

@goldbe @rsalz well, the RFC editor could have refused to publish, but the point of these sorts of informational RFCs is to document a protocol as it exists, not for the design to be fixed prior to publication
@rsalz I know!! It’s informational but I could not believe it. How did that thing get published???
