ProTips for your future Black Hat conference submissions:

✅ Remove the sentence stating "Claude may make mistakes, please check your answers"
✅ Consider not putting your company's literal product name in the title when you're trying to sneak in a sales pitch disguised as a tech talk

Ha! I also resubscribed to @wired.com last night for the first time since 2019.
And finally before I go heads-down on work, subscribing to @wired.com for the first time in a decade (and likely dropping my @nytimes.com subscription) because they are killing it not only on the reporting but they aren't watering down the headlines.

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.

She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”

Despicable if true (and yet, wholly unsurprising for this administration). As a former NSA engineer this is especially infuriating.
Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

Good PSA. I got mine from Apostrophe Games last month (on the AAS list below).

Last eclipse, in 2017, the big box hardware stores had them (in store only) when all the online places were sold out. But best not to wait until the last minute.

Just tried it, and it found matches for about 11% (96 out of 867) of the accounts I follow on Twitter. It's a start!

Found this in my screenshots from last week. Flight *1776* from PHL-BOS must be intentional, right? Nice little easter egg if so.
