#scamalert unauthorized use of my and others’ images on this scam site that claims you can get in touch with various cybersecurity people through them.

Pretty sure neither @schneier.com nor I have phone numbers in India 🤦🏻‍♀️

“plagiarism toaster” 🤌
At some point a random cybersecurity founder just shows up in the comments and butts in with the most obviously ChatGPT generated argument I've ever seen. Apparently the dude just saw the discussion and was like "hold up, I think my plagiarism toaster could provide some valuable insight here". 2/2

Let’s do some quick math on this idea of 50 year mortgages.

Let us say it’s a 500k house. At 6% interest over 50 years, 600 payments, estimated total cost in principal and interest is $1,512,000.

Fuck that.

Some days it doesn’t matter how early it is, how cold it is, or you don’t feel 100%. You just get it done.

I’ve come to realize that in offensive security, there is a top out and pretty much you either ride until retirement or have to step back and move into the defense side to continue to grow.

That’s at the individual contributor level.

I’ve been reading Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela.

It’s my brain seeing the connections but the United States feels like it’s slipping into a country where the government will be dividing the people and stripping away their freedom.

Spent days on the trail volunteering again. Something different about carrying your entire life support system into the woods and working.

Carrying tools as well. New backpacking campsite fully set up and decommissioned the old site on the old trail.

Picture was from gathering water to filter.

Recently went to Soldier Field. Something odd feeling being in a building built 100 years ago for WWI soldiers. SOAD were on point all night.
