Sorry but I love it every time that the fraud betting apps go health insurance mode and find the smallest discrepancy to justify not paying out to the inside traders who are its core customer base. Eat shit.

Mathy Vanhoef (@vanhoefm@infosec.exchange) We found that Wi-Fi client isolation can often be bypassed. This allows an attacker who can connect to a network, either as a malicious insider or by connecting to a co-located open network, to attack...

Are you depending on isolation for security guarantees on your own network? I am not. As Mathy Vanhoef, who coauthored the paper, notes: "People who don’t rely on client or network isolation are safe." infosec.exchange/@vanhoefm/11...

Now that we have LLM coding agents:

* The value of simple code is ~$0.

I think it is OUTRAGEOUS that people are LEAPING to the conclusion that some our post prominent Americans are child rapists when it is EQUALLY PLAUSIBLE that they are simply indifferent to whether other people are child rapists so long as those other people can offer them access to power.

This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.

There are a lot of things wrong with this country, but it’s hard to imagine anything less American than the President threatening to revoke someone’s citizenship for the crime of free speech.

The honest reason I don't have microtransactions/season pass/ads/100 DLCs/etc in Balatro isn't just about the ethics of those practices but because when I play other games that have those things it makes me want to put my computer in the dishwasher and set it to pots & pans

This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.

Remember how all the cyber security people said not to backdoor end-to-end encryption?
That sensitive data should be encrypted in transit AND at rest?

Vaccine Critic Who Used Chemical Castration Drug to Treat Autism Tapped to Lead Federal Immunization Study | National Review Mark Geier had his medical license suspended after the Maryland State Board of Physicians found that his research β€˜endangers autistic children.’

The Autism "study" will be led by a guy who pretended to be a doctor even though he only has a BA in bio and who attempted a small-scale genocide of autistic people through chemical castration, so you know it'll be legit.

+1 for asking engineers. I'm happy to share my own opinion on it, but the team's opinion is fully up to date & includes things I may not see.

Though depending on the exact issue, external candidates may get less transparent answers, as they're not bound by any confidentiality agreements...
