completely agree on the stance that everything _is_ inherently political.

I feel like most things that claim not to be support the status quo to some degree which in and of itself is political

I feel like if you wanted One Cool Trick to find the Real Cool Code in Rust, you could just search for `UnsafeCell>`, e.g. grep.app/search?q=Uns...

Preferably something Hybrid/Remote.

Yea, there's nothing left for me in America. I'm really sorry. This is what a distinguished military career even at senior-most levels gets you now. Fired by internet trolls.

The amount of times that I've seen/heard "we don't need to do traditional host hardening/network security architecture/etc. because we have EDR and a SOC" is alarming

Lesley Carhart @hacks4pancakes.com · Aug 16

You really should read this article on how criminal groups routinely bypass EDR. This isn’t state stuff. I see it all the time, and have for a while. The sad truth is EDR is one rung in defense in depth and it surviving tampering is a perpetual cat mouse game. www.theregister.com/2025/08/14/e...
