A fun project I worked on in my early career was tracking DDoS attacks. A lot of DDoS attacks come from infected IoT devices. But most IoT devices use ramdisks, meaning any modifications to the main filesystem gets erased upon reboot, removing the malware along with it. 1/?

I am a huge fan of Hawk Tuah but you took my life savings.

Someone just reminded me of my funniest LLM interaction ever. It was from back in 2023 when Microsoft tried to code their LLM to have "personality", which resulted in it gaslighting people over easily verifiable information. Here it is trying to convince me that the current year is 2022.

these webb/hubble images are truly incredible. the fact that we can see the universe in different wavelengths of light and spot so many unseen details is mind-blowing 🌌
Two observations of a portion of the galaxy NGC 628 are split diagonally, with Webb’s observations at top left and Hubble’s at bottom right. The galaxy’s core is roughly centered and the galaxy’s arms appear to rotate counterclockwise. The spiraling filamentary structure looks somewhat like a cross section of a nautilus shell. In Webb’s image, the spiny spiral arms are composed of many filaments in shades of orange, with prominent dark gray or black “bubbles,” and there is a blue haze near the core. In Hubble’s image, the spiral arms are a mix of bright blue star clusters, pink star forming areas and dark brown dust lanes, and the core is a pale yellow. Two observations of the galaxy NGC 1300 are split diagonally, with Webb’s observations at top left and Hubble’s at bottom right. The galaxy’s core is centered, connected to a prominent diagonal bar structure. The galaxy’s two distinct spiral arms begin at the end of the bar and rotate counterclockwise. Together, the arm and bars form a backward S shape. In Webb’s image, the bar and spiral arms are composed of many filaments in shades of orange, and are anchored by its central region, which is circular and light yellow. In Hubble’s image, the spiral arms are a mix of bright blue star cluster and dark brown dust lanes, and the bar and core are a pale yellow. Two observations of the galaxy NGC 1512 are split diagonally, with Webb’s observations at top left and Hubble’s at bottom right. The galaxy’s core is centered and circular, with two prominent dust lanes crossing the large diagonal bar structure appearing toward the top left and bottom right. The central bar is blue at top, looking like a gap until a closer examination shows it feeds a larger, oval shape that looks braided with many spiral arms. In Webb’s image, the spiral arms are composed of many filaments in shades of orange. In Hubble’s image the bar is a light pinkish-brown and the spiral arms are a mix of bright blue star clusters and dark brown dust lanes. Two observations of the galaxy NGC 3351 are split diagonally, with Hubble’s observations at top left and Webb’s at bottom right. The galaxy’s core is centered and the galaxy’s arms rotate clockwise and form a distinct outer ring. In Hubble’s image, the galaxy’s roughly horizontal bar structure is a pale yellow and the spiral arms are a mix of bright blue star clusters and dark brown dust lanes that form half of the large circular ring. In Webb’s image, the spiral arms form the other half of the large ring, which is made of many filaments in shades of orange. They are anchored by its central region, a hazy blue bar, connected to the central core. The core has a small orange oval around a more circular light yellow oval, with a blue dot at its center.

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!

with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.
Popular meme format, grandma labeled with "bluesky's public launch was one year ago today." Younger person helping her labeled with "sure grandma let's get you to bed."
