As America's democracy teeters, and as fascists gather in Madison Square Garden in a sick replay of a 1939 Nazi rally, the founder and CEO of the tiny but superb Mississippi Free Press offers a history lesson, a stark warning, and a vow to resist.

I need an illustrator who can execute an idea I have involving Tux the penguin and the BSD daemon mascot. The illustration will be used as a logo on web pages and also on branding items like stickers and coffee mugs. This is a paid commission, please respond with rates and a portfolio link via Mastodon, LinkedIn, or email ([email protected]).

The past year has been amazing. From marriage, to Pwn2Own to a Pwnie Award, I'm so grateful. I'm using the money I've won from hacking competitions, bounties, & RB for two ppl to travel & attend Hexacon, the premier offensive security con in Paris, France.

The main take away is, writing Rust won't save you from logical bugs :)

Yesterday, a couple of us learned that the school district thinks that 70% of the busses can be converted to electric by 2050.

The process of getting transformers from the electric company to build out the charging infrastructure has been slow. Time line of 1-2 years.

We also asked about the Green New Deal resolution in the school district and how the students worked on it. They spoke to the sustainability office and school board members several times to get it done.
