I am a system administrator turned network & security researcher, looking at digital infrastructures & society, and operators. Inspecting #cloudification at scale.

I am also operating a small hoster-ish AS for the good of the Internet (and to make it more distributed), making it ping. Happy to help non-profits with infrastructure.

@rysiek I actually started to do that to a DMCA takedown thing. Only stopped after I cc'ed finance to ask for their invoice address, insisting that them continuing to send (repeated, timed out) reports after I told them the next one will be charged was essentially agreement to my terms.

Are you sure your stance against 'child killing machines' isn't a bit too much anti-innovation?

I mean, think of the baby-blenders and kitten-crushers their work could lead to if all that unnecessary regulation would be lifted.

@atarifrosch It's the scans for the Catch-22 work (identifying compromised hosts via an SSH feature that lets you test whether a public key is installed or not. ;-)) This one: https://www.usenix.org/system/files/usenixsecurity25-munteanu.pdf

Ich versuch das mal hier... sucht wer eine 20 Stunden (50%/0.5FTE) Stelle als "Office Professional" in Wien? Nette Umgebung, grad noch recht wenig zu tun, viel Entwicklungsraum, und mit dem Chef versteh ich mich zwischenzeitlich auch ganz gut:

@bobthomson70@mastodon.social @mikebroberts@hachyderm.io I had my 'sysops' course at $university last week; One of the big points: "Seniors are seniors because they mentor juniors. If a company does not have juniors it cannot have seniors. If it only has juniors, it sets them up for failure." One of those things managers do wrong so regularly, yet are always surprised when it ends in disaster in the end. -.-'

@mikebroberts@hachyderm.io But how else would you ensure that KPIs are sufficiently personalized to use them to increase individual performance and identify "non team players" who can be "made redundant" when management "streamlines costs". ;-)
