If you think you can't win, I need you to know that you are wrong.
If you think that it isn't in you, I want to assure you that it is.
If you think you aren’t smart enough or have enough talents, you do. In fact,
Whatever it is, you can do it. You can.
You will. Go do it.

Liquor store clerk: I’m gonna need to see some age verification

Me: Prior to V.90 there were two incompatible standards for 56K modems. USRobotics pushed their own “X2”, while Lucent and Rockwell pushed the confusingly named “KFlex”

Liquor store clerk: enjoy your purchase.

This person posts observations like this one all the time. Seriously. Look at their timeline.

Definitely going to follow.

Nobody reading this is pissed because we didn't have a "perfect" childhood or an "easy" life.

Trauma survivors working our recovery are righteously angry we had to learn for ourselves how to focus & regulate in a world that actively takes advantage of our struggles w/ both.

There are absolutely no words to express how proud I am of this young man, and it's not just because of his 3 Gold Medals or his 5 World Records. I proud of the class and respect he shows to others. Go, Sammy, Go.

I work in & around, several different infosec-adjacent communities, including red teams, blue teams, the IC, DFIR, academic, publishing, and of course, podcasting.

And every single group supports encourages of me and my family. Thank you for that. We truly appreciate you.

Just a gentle reminder that if you see me doing or saying something that is hurtful to another person or group, it is totally OK to contact me to let me know. It’s not your duty by any means, but I greatly appreciate it regardless.

Thank you.

I have interacted with @nedpyle.com many times over the past decade or so, but to my knowledge, we have never sat down for a meal, or a meeting, or a game of Uno.

HOWEVER… I can tell you with nearly 100% certainty that Ned is a good human being.

Take it to the bank.

I am a bit obsessive about DKI and postprandial glucose values. This is my living room:

I lost a bit over 150 pounds in around a year, but keeping that weight off is ten times harder than losing it.

I publicly post my DEXAScan and Hume data to keep myself accountable for staying physically healthy.

(I don’t know how to track mental health yet.)

Sam was disqualified in Poland for being too light on the start pad. It was devastating.

100’s of you texted me and said this isn’t fair! What will he do Ray?

8 days later he won the World Cup in Chamonix France. Just watch:
