In a few days I'll be nerding out about process injection at @npub1pfe…2u6v in Montreal (and also helping run the lockpicking village). Come say hi if you're there!!

Also
> The reckoning will not be subtle. The firms still doing the work properly will be in a position to charge for it. The firms that have hollowed themselves out will discover that what they hollowed out was the thing the client was paying for.
And
> Misunderstanding and misuse of AI in the workplace is rampant. In many of the rooms I now find myself in, expertise has been asked to look the other way: to deliver faster, produce more, integrate the tools more deeply, get out of the way of the colleagues who are “getting things done”
These are all painfully familiar to read these days

neat idea! Although if I was visiting I might scan it out of curiosity

My team at @npub1lmd…m9t8 is hiring a Junior Detection Engineer - somebody who understands network traffic and can write detection rules. Hit me up if you have any questions!

it's such a weird story! The way it was written kept making promises, I was waiting and waiting for the "pay us for the full story" or "watch our documentary here" part that never came

Not to detract from the point, but I find it really helpful to put a state / city on these types of posts - I see it retooted and have to verify it's across the country from me

I have a deck and I know raccoons go under it regularly (we have a motion sensor camera on the rear), but I've occasionally peeked and they don't seem to sleep there. I'm kinda terrified of finding one though

They're paid pretty well, but not THAT well. They're a massive bureaucracy, but probably somebody is getting rich

2026-04-15 14:24:34 GMT

The fact that I regularly see raccoons around my (very urban) house at night implies they're sleeping somewhere around here during the day. I'd hate to accidentally wake up a sleepy raccoon!

They have so many good instructors, many of whom I'm friends with, but unfortunately they only care about people who can afford $$$ (big corps and military). They used to have diversity programs, but those mysteriously disappeared recently-ish, as they keep training government folks
Sometimes you can get a discount if you help out in class, but it's still not cheap

Then labs/research makes their own blog, then that ALSO gets filled with AI slop because more quantity = better right?
I'm gonna start embedding one of those "email me for a $100 gift card" into every slop post to prove that nobody reads them

Also trust! I remember when certain small companies used to set themselves apart and build a lot of goodwill by having humans create things for the community.. now it's all slop all the time coming from their social accounts

I come from a place where you've gotta get the outdoor decorations up before November, otherwise you'll freeze to death trying to do it

Visiting family in Canada, realizing the US has become even more of a laughing stock / enemy than I realized. So much anti-US sentiment here. It's nuts how much goodwill is just simply gone.

Ever since his Paypal days, he's wanted X to be the all-encompassing financial platform that everybody has to use (like WeChat in China). I'm pretty sure that's still his end-game - he just had to find a president dumb enough to let him wreck the country with his stupid ideas.

Yeah, around here (Seattle) most places won't accept cash. I imagine the risk of robbery balances is higher than the transaction cost (at least in their mind).

I can't stand windows as a primary OS, it's pushy and has ads and spyware and everything feels very commercialized. Also over time it just kinda rots until you have to reinstall.
I run it in a disposable VM as needed, such a better experience

There's nothing more cringe than posting a bunch of vague crap before an embargo is lifted. Please, just don't.
Either release the info or shut up until you can talk details. Posting, hyping, dropping hints, stuff like that helps nobody.
