🥲 Still can’t currently recommend getting a Suunto smart watch.
Despite knowing about bugs for 3+ months that wipe watches with each update…
And turning off automatic updates doesn’t work…
I’ve had my watch wiped twice at this point. Just go Garmin / Coros.

They’re already getting braver 😐
But also… who wants to receive this? Why do companies feel the need to email slop multiple times a day the minute they get someone’s address?
I’d stay subscribed (to other corps) if it wasn’t such a flood.

🙃 Figuring this out (again) as I try to switch from iPhone to Android.
Drank the kool-aid a few yrs ago because I loved my MacBook. Enjoyed the ecosystem until Apple decided to essentially brick my iPhone 15 Plus with iOS 26 😭.
Now I need to de-tangle iCloud, iPhotos, Apple Music, etc...

Wanting it to be 🍁 fall 🍂 already so I’ve been attempting to break the boots & jeans out (in 88 degree weather 😭).
Forgot exactly how comfy+flexy the services ones were, and the Solovairs are new and AMAZING.
I get the hype, especially surrounding the air soles now 👌

A few of the things to keep in mind with any SaaS:
- How's my data stored?
- How do I get my existing data into it?
- Who has access to my data?
- How easy would it be to get my data off it and into another platform?

No better way to prove you’ve recovered from surgery and are ready to hit the ground running at work again!
Just glad to finally be off the couch 😂.

Could be many things:
- Scope was too small / restricted.
- Access issues / delayed start.
- Test timeline might be around a week or under.
- Broken functionality in dev environment.
Or, ofc, as everyone is human:
- That specific company isn't the best.
- Employee had a rough week.
- Scope was too small / restricted.
- Access issues / delayed start.
- Test timeline might be around a week or under.
- Broken functionality in dev environment.

Everyone has different life paths and trying to enforce a "mold" for entry-level hiring feels weird.
Maybe I'm just sour bc I didn't do any internships though 😂, I mainly just worked standard jobs during my summers.
From a cashier, to helpdesk, to assisting with campus research projects.

This is about web3 SC auditing, but I think it can be applied to bug bounty as well.
The stability and benefits of a standard job with things like vacation, great coworkers, healthcare, etc. cannot be written off easily.

I've began storing stuff in a secrets mngmnt container within my homelab, which is separate from where I do any dev (personal use).
.env never really felt "right", plus it's so easy now to handle keys, rotation, etc. with a little bit of boilerplate code.
Removing automated attack paths FTW.
