@fromjason "The best camera is the one you have with you", but for writing.

If you're out and about, or comfortable on the couch, and you pull out your phone to write down some thoughts when they come to you, that seems useful.

If stopping your process to move to a computer desk, or go to get a laptop, would break your train of thought or momentum, then why not stick with the phone?

OMG. #Microsoft #Copilot bypasses #Sharepoint #security so you don’t have to!

“CoPilot gets privileged access to SharePoint so it can index documents, but unlike the regular search feature, it doesn’t know about or respect any of the access controls you might have set up. You can get CoPilot to just dump out the contents of sensitive documents that it can see, with the bonus feature* that your access won’t show up in audit logs.”

The S in CoPilot stands for Security!

This is really more a study in lines than anything else. The simple, unadorned design of the derelict building invites interpreting and exploring abstract forms.

I believe this building, from Treasure Island's time as a naval base, is still standing, but the vegetation is winning.

Types of codebases my customers send me:

- Enterprise javabean factory factory... on a SIM card

- C# programmer retasked to write an authenticated bootloader in C for an arm platform with no training

- Beautiful well-written, easy-to-read C by an experienced systems programmer, with one mind-blowing 100-out-of-100-risk-severity bug buried in miscutils.c

- There is a hermit monk in a cave in Czechia. Once every three years, he emerges with a new revision of the codebase. It is horrifying spaghetti logic that repulses the human soul, but no matter how long and how hard you look, you can't actually find anything wrong with it

looking at real-time'ish telemetry data with the percentage of clients with the update installed never gets old.

Liberals (in basically any western country) think that the political victory of the right is due to messaging: "We just need to get the messaging right".

No. Your politics are shit because you are adopting the narratives of the right (austerity, racism) and provide no meaningful alternatives.

Today's Confession: I have a cookie recipe that people rave about. My daughter told her mom (who thinks she's the Queen of Cookies), and her Mom called asking me for the recipe. I declined because I deserve special things that my kids could only get at my house. Knowing how toxic that mom is, and that she would convince that daughter to steal the recipe, I replaced the recipe with a modified version. A month later, my son told me, "Moms aren't as good as yours."

As much as I detest the term "agentic AI" for all that it stands for, it's a term that everyone should understand and be conversant about. If you thought we had problems already with systems being compromised by botnets, wait until everyone and his mom starts handing control over their system to agentic AI. It won't be long now.

The CIA Secretly Ran a Star Wars Fan Site:

"One of the CIA’s mistakes was that the IP addresses pointing to the sites were sequential, meaning that after discovering one, it was straightforward for a researcher to find others very likely in the same network. "

Lot of people died because of this. A good reminder that most that make up the shadowy parts of our power structures are mostly idiots. https://www.404media.co/the-cia-secretly-ran-a-star-wars-fan-site/

Still baffling to me how people asking for basic human rights and civil liberties are painted as far left. They’re normal asks and enjoyed in many other countries. The rhetoric is just designed to stop the conversation; it’s not a serious discussion.
