With Real World Cryptography coming up next week, I wanted to take an opportunity to point out that our current post-quantum cryptographic primitives are not suitable for the web dadrian.io/blog/posts/pqc-si…

I am willing to join whatever party arrests and imprisons JJ Abrams for the sequels.

Sprawl 0x5 is happening tonight. Who's hyped?

Wow, it only took Steve Yegge 21 years to realize Google is not good at interviewing. What an amazing insight from Steve Yegge, something completely novel. Truly the power of Steve Yegge.

Just talked to @lcamtuf for @SCWpod and was tOdAy YeArS oLd when I learned that I could buy and download his new book, which looks amazing, right now. Which is what I'm doing. nostarch.com/secret-life-of-…

But it turns out there's a 1:1 and onto relationship between "people I already thought were useless" and "people who use AI for writing"

That sounds right, looking at all the broken products I see announced. Which suggests agents are just multipliers: the copy-paste crowd can paste faster, the loves-computers crowd gets to do more with computers. Good coworkers matter more than ever.

But what if there was one more?

I love AI. I use it all the time. I code with it. I brainstorm with it. I use it for research. I use it to learn. But I never write with it.

Bucco’s guide to making $400k : So, your dumb ass has been lucky enough to stumble into making a 1% salary. Congratulations, you’re at the doorstop of generational wealth (or early retirement). Here’s how to not fuck it up 1. Assume this isn’t permanent: The first thing you need to recognize is most people don’t keep their 1% salaries. There’s a lot of luck, and variable comp, that usually goes into that kind of paycheck. So have some humility and live like it ain’t permanent, because it usually ain’t. Which brings me to point #2 2. Live below your means: Most people who start making fat paychecks start racking up fat credit card bills. But if you follow my first rule you won’t do that. At least for the first 3 years you will live like you aren’t making a lot of money. You will save. A lot. This is a gift to future you 3. Take care of yourself: If you are making this much you are usually working very hard. So take care of yourself. Invest in your brain and your body and your health. It is a marathon, not a sprint, as they say. And one of the reasons people don’t maintain their high paychecks is because they burn out 4. Pay it forward: Fate has smiled on you. You are not only obligated to pay it forward, but it is the right thing to do. One day you may experience something bad, unlucky, and catastrophic. People will remember that you did not neglect others while it was your moment in the sun and they will come to your support. Be kind, especially when you don’t need to 5. Maintain perspective: You are not better than anyone because you make a lot of money. There are many ways to be rich. Be sure that you stay humble, and continue to invest in your friends, families, relationships and health. Or you might one day find yourself with a full bank account and an empty life Follow these rules and I assure you that the odds of living a prosperous life will tip heavily in your favor

Tomorrow, I will drop Chrome exploit code showing how an attacker can execute arbitrary Javascript within the context of a domain they control.

The only thing more useless than a pentest is an AI agent doing the pentest.

The only thing worse than people writing prose with AI is people writing about people writing prose with AI on LinkedIn.
