I’ve worked in IT/Cybersecurity for 10+ years. Post mostly about it. Views are my own. Love breaking/fixing things, new & old tech, surfing, and 2000s alt-rock. Check out: verifia.io
Michelob Ultra Zero is surprisingly good. When you want to feel like a degen but can’t be hungover… solid choice
apple.news/AIVfTl_ymT96... This is cool but without a guarantee of HIPPA protections, it is largely a red-herring for consumers. No one should use this without legal guarantees ChatGPT employees can’t just look at your data whenever they feel like it or hand it over to 3rd parties.

I get the need for security… but knowing MSFT the account recovery flows for this are going to suck by default. I’ve lost access to multiple tenants thanks to MSFT Authenticator auth loops 😑

I’m looking for someone for a project about bringing cyber + “Hollywood” together. Will be fun. Anyone in the movie/tv show business that also has a vague interest in cybersecurity?
I’m late to this party but… Project Hail Mary, right? Maybe Hollywood should continue to make more movies based on epic Sci-Fi books with a built-in fan base? 🤔 Or just cranck out a dozen more sequels with the same recipe… yeah, I’m guessing that.
Has anyone else noticed this trend on Apple News where old news get recycled with new dates? What’s the deal with the bait & switch?
Cyberattacks = war. That’s increasingly public opinion globally. Interesting read. Hopefully countries tread carefully with one another in this theater.

Is there enough clean, secure code examples to build an LLM model that just spits out secure code that’s useful?

I kinda liked Mercy. That said, I appreciate anyone making a decently high budget sci-fi movie these days.
I think the entire movie Marty Supreme is rage bait. Shitty people doing shitty things. The most egregious dialogue to make you hate every character. The most important line of the movie muted relative to background noise. If you want to be angered & bored for 2.5 hours, buy your ticket now.
Super misleading headline but decent content: www.ibtimes.co.uk/rainbow-six-... I think HelpDesk outsourcing will be looked at in 2026. Especially with better, security focused AI coming onto the market
