Good authors, from information security to brilliant fiction, like @shehackspurple.bsky.social and @beritmiriam.bsky.social ask us to support their writings by weighing in on book-selling platforms.

So DO support them, dear followers 🥰

Why even call one old man without apparent knowledge POTUS?
Voters bringing him to a 2nd term made the US a less secure (less prosperous) country, with dire consequences for the world 😩

The nuke testing part of the CBS interview with Trump is quite a read. He’s starting from intel reports that China/Rus have done very low yield test experiments, claims all others are testing, and doesn’t seem to know what US is doing. www.cbsnews.com/news/read-fu...

Liebe Maja Göpel
Ansatz beeindruckt. Wir alle stehen vor der Herausforderung, von differenzierendem Denken zu klaren Positionen zu kommen (dazu taugt gerade auch @sicherheitspod.des kluger Podcast #100)
Und gerne kaufe ich dein Buch und setze mich möglichst aktiv mit deinen Gedanken auseinander.

I only got aware of this recently: Scala's importance in #fintech is currently (and probably will persist to be) a market in favor of software engineering people 🤓

Magastan. Ein Polizeistaat, dessen paramilitärische Polizeikorps die Bevölkerung terrorisieren, um Angst und Schrecken zu verbreiten. Hand in Hand mit politischen Provokationen der Trump Faschisten, um dann alle Demokratischen Politiker zu entfernen. Er sagte ja, letzte Wahl. Demokratie ade.

It's not Democrats that have introduced thousands of bills focusing on trans people, it's republicans. This dichotomy where Republicans obsess over these things but it's Dems that get tagged as being obsessed drives me up a wall.

Facial-recognition on U.S. streets opens the door to mass tracking, registries, biased arrests, silenced protest, and expanding government reach into your personal lives with little oversight. Basically, 1930s Germany on steroids.

Just imagine A House of Dynamite in reality:
- SECDEF pushes his only remaining highly trained and competent four-star off a roof,
- and POTUS goes all in with the words: "America has the best nukes in the world".
