For any journalists who follow me and work tech or security beats... This is a big deal. This is a big, honking, glaring signal.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Censorship never works, especially where the Hacker community is concerned.

St. John’s is being cowardly with the way this has all played out.

2600 has graciously published me several times and will always have my support, and I hope to attend or present at HOPE someday.

I was an attendee of this conference "back in the day." For the last few years I've been a volunteer and presenter. I've met some of the most incredible humans at HOPE - an event with people that have restored my hope. Whether at St. John's or elsewhere, I look forward to the next chapter
Back in my younger days, colleges were bastions of free speech and controversial topics. It's sad to see what they have become now; this is just the latest disappointment.

Trump effectively lost three elections overnight - one to a Gen Z Muslim, and two of them to women. If one of these people was LGBTQ+ we'd have had the trifecta that unlocked the Trump Self-Destruct codes

The Louvre heist, the Ocean's 11 style poker scheme... THESE are the headlines we need right now! If we're going to live in a world of fiction, let's at least make it entertaining as we watch it all burn to the ground 👀😅☠

Well, season 3 of Alice in Borderland was total crap. I should have listened to my gut and skipped it. It ultimately detracted from the excellence of the first two seasons. Shame.

Noah catalogued every living animal in pairs and was hyperfocused on boats.

I'm really torn about this third season. I truly loved the first two seasons, and there was a proper ending based on the books. Quite often, when producers decide to go beyond the original story, it becomes derivative, or it jumps the shark.
