Brian is correct.

Sneakers is the best.
Happy "Hack the Planet" day to all those who celebrate

40 years ago today the movie Hackers was released. Definitely one of the best hacker movies out there. Sneakers of course being the best. :)

In April this year, @grafana.bsky.social had a security incident due to an insecure GitHub Action. The attackers even tried covering their tracks.

How were they discovered? Canarytokens..
