Mine are mostly centered around simplifying to remove distractions and diversifying my skillset: 1. Purge/sell off some of the technology I accumulated over the pandemic when I was stuck at home as much. Do I really need both a gaming

I wonder how much of this might be due to every member of a team being more likely to work out of the same office in a SV located company than in other companies. The reason I’ve been so bullish on remote work coming out of the pandemic is

Reading Nadella's book is something I think everybody in this industry should do. You understand the impact his son Zain had on him and consequentially the reason why Microsoft is pushing in some of the areas it has been since he took

That did stand out to me as a pretty small amount of time to not just let it run normally In my pentesting days if we dumped the DC at the beginning of a test we would let that run in our password cracker GPU machine for days to see what hi

Several years ago, I decided to push myself a bit further than before in my hobby of running and decided to train for a marathon. Knowing that it would take an unwavering dedication to getting up early and going for long runs, I swore off d

I agree the sales were close, but I think the narrative/momentum was very different for the two. That was Microsoft's first console. They started with nothing, and by the end of the generation had sold more than Nintendo and estab

As someone who played a lot of Starcraft back during SC1/SC2 Wings of Liberty days, Starcraft was a game I loved watching other people play - mostly due to fog of war knowledge asymmetry in the audience. If I was someone who didn'

I’m glad it’s not just me who is perplexed at some of the decisions made with golang. This was a golden opportunity to implement some typical form of exception handling. Instead you have to bundle your errors together and then unwrap them (

They also broke SC2 into three $60 boxes products, segmenting the multiplayer each time, right at the dawn of the free to play MOBA era on PC. My entire SC2 friend group ditched Heart of the Swarm for League of Legends and never looked back

This is it. States need to rip the band-aid off (or be forced to) so that people will be forced to get a Real ID at their next license renewal. Only then will this deadline pass without being extended

Option 1 is made more difficult by the fact that Apple prevents alternative web browser engines on iOS and does not implement modern PWA features in the one they do allow (their own) It absolutely undermines the credibility of that argument

At this point, I will always buy a game on my Steam Deck over my Switch for one reason - competency of the online service infrastructure. Nintendo has been woefully behind in this area for over a decade. You still need friend codes just to

Panos Panay took over Windows Experience in early 2020, and I think these are the results of that effort. While it was clear that Windows needed a coherent vision and direction from a leader, this certainly isn't what I had hoped for.

How many read-write services can you use to redirect traffic to your C2 infrastructure while almost guaranteeing organizations will allow outbound connections to it and not look too closely at it?

The question for cloud providers is not which one is morally more important, but which one is better for their shareholders. It seems like creating a situation where organizations move their workloads off your public cloud because they have

It is not just used for censorship. When I was working as a pentester and domain fronting was still allowed on AWS, it became our method of choice for establishing C2 because it camouflaged so well with regular organizational outbound that
