Last Notes
There aren't many nerdcore hip hop artists making music but I just realized that's no longer a problem: I can simply generate the esoteric beats I want to hear!

No, but I'll never spend as much of my life playing games as I did when I was a child.

After 10 rounds of training just on the coldcard entropy vulnerability, it's rather amusing how the training clanker is getting frustrated with how retarded the pentest clanker is and how it keeps making inexcusable mistakes. 🫠
This might take a while...

I asked a clanker what the best TUI framework was and it said Rich so I said implement a Rich dashboard with as much info as you can cram into it.
How to train your clanker?
Building a generic pentest harness seems far more difficult than building one for a specific codebase because it requires an additional layer of context building in order to formulate a plan of attack.
I'm trying something new now, which is feeding a corpus of recently found vulnerabilities in open source codebases to a training clanker that then runs the pentest clanker without giving it any hints, and then the training clanker analyzes the output of the pentest and tries to work backwards to figure out why the vulnerability wasn't found so that it can improve the pentest harness in a generic fashion.
This is my life now.
Obsessed with automating & optimizing pentesting.

If you have a Framework laptop and the track pad stops working, I recommend updating the system firmware. That fixed it right up for me.
I don't even bother using western models for my cyber security tasks.

Thanks, there are a number of little glitches like the panel issue to fix. Will take a look. The captcha is just the web archive doing their thing.

Not Production Ready yet?
It seems that web front-end development still sucks 10X more than back-end development even with clankers doing a lot of the heavy lifting.
I clanked together an interactive dashboard for the Bitcoin Wrench Attack archive; let me know what you think! Looks like I need to make some more mobile optimizations...

Haven't you heard that Core Developers aren't allowed to have sex?
Reporting from the front lines of the AI enhanced cybersecurity frontier, I share my thoughts on the latest episode of What Bitcoin Did.

If you rob a bank, you’re a criminal.
If the bank robs you, it’s finance.
If everyone robs each other, it’s crypto.

25 years ago I was sitting in band class watching thousands of my fellow citizens die on live TV. Little did I know that the horrors had only just begun.

Prompt a clanker ➡️ hit the gym.
Prompt a clanker ➡️ take a call.
Prompt a clanker ➡️ eat a meal.
Prompt a clanker ➡️ do a podcast.
Prompt a clanker ➡️ run an errand.
Prompt a clanker ➡️ read a book.
Prompt a clanker ➡️ go to sleep.
My favorite responsible disclosures are the ones where someone has a clanker evaluate us and it explains why we are following best practices with no recommended improvements.
And then they forward that on to me as a "security finding" 😎
Wanting is often more exciting than having.
Looks like the Liquid Network drainer has returned the 4,000 BTC!
Never a dull day in Bitcoin 😅

Yeah I've been saying Bitcoin is the canary in the coal mine.
Patience is a virtue.
Especially when you're trying to cost optimize your clankers.
Just have to remove a few screws.

Slapped a GeForce RTX 5070 on my Framework laptop in 10 minutes.
Installed CUDA toolkit and recompiled whispercpp with CUDA support.

Welcome to The Great Breakening.
It's gonna be a volatile security landscape for a while, but we will rebuild and come out stronger.

Hate can be a powerful tool if you use it as motivation to accomplish something good.
But if you don't direct it as a useful motivator, hate can be a powerful poison that consumes you from within.
Approaching 1 month of working every single day to catch up with the AI acceleration of vulnerability discovery. Exciting times for cyber security professionals. (Excitement is a bad thing.)

Pro tip: tell your clanker to find all of the TODO comments in your codebase and implement them.
The fake Google support social engineers have started calling again; time to update my script for maximum lulz! 😏
