People just walking by this and I'm losing my mind and threatening to give impromptu talks on the impact of this aircraft on human history.

But what is that revulsion based on? Personally, I am deeply troubled by the way this man wields power, without regard for law or common decency. What's more, each of his ventures demonstrate toxic, if not outright immoral, cultural attributes. 3/12

From market manipulation to outright racism, here we see evidence of industrialism run amok, with no regard for the people who, in the most ideal construction of capitalism, should be benefiting from the market. 4/12

And if the objection is personal, this is where it gains traction: I am not interested in being a part of this megalomaniac's power trip. I also have no interest in participating in whatever free-speech-absolutist nightmare he concocts. 5/12

Yes yes, no moral consumption under capitalism and all that. Do I contradict myself? Very well, I contradict myself; I contain multitudes. But you gotta pick your battles. 6/12

This man's worldview and methodology is so anathema to me, and so evident in the organizations he touches, that I'd much rather not engage with those who support it. 7/12

Is that cowardice? You may call it so, but it's not like engaging with them is going to change their mind. And if there's anything like true market forces left, ceasing to use the service is the only power I have. 8/12

Okay, I like the _concept_ of the new OWASP Top 10, but practically it makes it much harder to have discussions about specific vulnerabilities with the Top 10 as a foundation.

I published a Sysmon configuration tuned on a large corporate network (previous employer). It later became an industry baseline.
You know how? Nobody expressed interest in my work and I decided not to ask permission.

WHAT. I knew about making columns in MD, but not alignment!
I was today years old when I learned that columns in markdown tables can be aligned with the colon character. All this time I was converting them to HTML. 🤦♂️
RIP to one of the greats. Running an XServe roundabout Snow Leopard was a joy. It was all downhill from there.
Anyone us OSX server?
I am begging infosec to take the problematic alcohol consumption in this industry more seriously.
