I've been in and out of information security professionally, but somehow always have related projects. Mainly working with zeek and network level detection at the moment. SDR, cycling, and climbing enthusiast.

I boost a lot. Topics range far and wide from security and "the cybers" and may include politics, food, humor, science, law, nature, art, and other sundry unsavories. I occasionally post my own projects and thoughts.

One of these days I'm going to have the time and spoons to write about the work we're doing on Unbreaking—and today is not that day!—but if you want to understand the state of the federal government after months of direct attacks, this is the place: https://unbreaking.org/
Unbreaking

How the administration is breaking the government, and what that means for all of us.

Look, I know AI is controversial, but just for a moment, let's set aside our preconceived notions, our biases, the environmental impact, the massive cost to train and run models, the labor exploitation, the intellectual property theft, the inaccuracies, the mania it causes in users, the destruction of search, the deskilling of professionals, the devaluation of creative work, job losses, and lack of economic value from enterprise implementations.

Wait, what were we talking about?
After some completely predictable stretches of hard slogging, we're getting ourselves sturdied up in the Unbreaking collective (Unbreaking.org), and one of the things on my list for the next month-ish is sorting out where to start offering paths into that project on the fediverse. (1/x)

Many states rely on the federal government for the vast majority of their emergency management funding. Now, local leaders are looking for clues about the money — and the future of FEMA itself.

Okay maybe part four after all: If you're looking for US gov/pol knowledge on the fediverse, are there findability and/or kindness choices you would find useful?

We'll hashtag for discovery + easy muting, and our tone will always be coolheaded and level, pointing to more info on the site. I'm inclined not to CW because it's not going to be BREAKING NEWS or scary headlines—that is not our lane. (Our pages look like this rn https://unbreaking.org/issues/transgender-healthcare/ )

(We're about to put up a blog with RSS.)

Glad you enjoyed it!
