Building detections for Microsoft cloud environments @petrasecurity.bsky.social
Wrote up some findings about the event latencies that I've observed while working with Microsoft's O365 Management API.

Worth a read if you're looking to get your hands dirty with raw Microsoft telemetry in your own env.

Not to mention that as a dev, it’s super rare and exciting to get to build all the fun stuff that directly touches people without having to worry too much about the literal infra that powers all of it. Standing on the shoulders of @jacob.gold @jaz.bsky.social and co 🫡

One thing I really like about the For You feed is that it does a full remix when you refresh. It kind of frees me from mentally tracking where I am in the scroll. I just reload it whenever bsky.app/profile/did:... cc @hi.skygaze.io

People often tell us the people/content they want isn’t on Bluesky yet…. But actually their problem is the feed they’re using!

For You learns what you like. Try it! bsky.app/profile/did:...

I’d be here even if Elon hadn’t ruined Twitter, because I believe ppl deserve power over the algorithms that structure their worlds. In that spirit, three current favorite feeds.

“For You” is a personalized feed that seems to give you posts from several “circles” it detects you belong to. 1/3
