Security is a feeling.
For a few lexical reasons, I assume this is a DDoS. But the advantage of DDoS is that it doesn't take owning a lot of resources so much as pwning a lot of resources. It's automated hacking, not nation state exclusive work.

If Trump is removing all environmental regulation, how about we undo the "memory safe languages" mandate? I mean, how is mandating "memory safe languages" compatible with freedom of speech anyhow?
Enough policing of speech! Raw pointers for raw milk, our youth needs to be hardened by strcpy.
Abstract. We introduce protein cryptography, a recently proposed method that encodes data into the amino acid sequences of proteins. Unlike traditional digital encryption, this approach relies on the inherent diversity, complexity, and replication resistance of biological macromolecules, making them highly secure against duplication or tampering. The experimental realization of protein cryptography remains an open problem. To accelerate experimental progress in this area, we provide an accessible and self-contained introduction to the fundamentals of cryptography for biologists with limited mathematical and computational backgrounds. Furthermore, we outline a framework for encoding, synthesizing, and decoding information using proteins. By enabling biologists to actively engage in the development of protein cryptography, this work bridges disciplinary boundaries and paves the way for applications in secure data storage.

I would see computer programming become a discipline within the wider umbrella of Engineering as a regulated and licensed profession. A degree shouldn't be necessary, but you should have to prove you can uphold a standard of ethics and conduct to be able to work as a programmer.

Anyone have an rss feed of this. Looks like good stuff!
threat actor = someone who wants to punch you in the face
threat = the punch being thrown
vulnerability = your inability to defend against the punch
risk = the likelihood of getting punched in the face

This book was recommended to me. It will make even the biggest math-o-phone lust for math conceptually within a chapter or two. (The efficacy it actually terrifying so I stopped reading)
Thrilling. 🔥
Surely all you really need is a copy of the firmware (probably shared increasingly in public/semi-public spaces ). I don’t see why all manner of remote attacks aren’t discoverable. It’s just a wireless computer at the end of the day.
The year is 2074.
After the exposure of another hostile state cyber espionage campaign against the Five Eyes, leaders announce they've found the answer this time.
They're "going on offense" to "impose costs"

They’re just feeding the watchdog by making a statement about processes, efforts that long precede their administration. It’s a formality, a performance for domestic audiences.

Great convo here between @patrick.risky.biz and some guy named @thekrebscycle.bsky.social with medium fashion sense.

Still blown away that you can literally cut down a Wii PCB and end up with a fully functional tiny GameCube! 🤯
For reference, here’s what a full motherboard looks like before the dremmel:
