Online behavioral advertising has made surveillance the business model of the internet. By automatically blocking their trackers, @privacybadger.org makes it harder for Big Tech companies to profit from your personal information. You can download Privacy Badger at privacybadger.org.

Fun fact: Linux allows file names to be any byte sequence except / and the null character. You can also mix character encodings in the same directory #!/usr/bin/env bash prefix="$(dd if=/dev/urandom bs=128 count=1)" touch “$(printf ‘%s\n%s’ “you can’t hurt me I’m already dead” “$prefix”)”

End-to-end encryption for the contents of your communication are great, but never forget that metadata matters.

This is your regular reminder that government mandated backdoors for end-to-end encrypted comms are bullshit, make everyone less safe, and should be resisted at maximum volume.

I've chosen to avoid this wave of AI altogether. I'm not interested in becoming one with the machine. If they are willing to spend time and money training artificial intelligence, why wouldn't I do the same for the real thing.

1. Impact. How much revenue does my work protect or generate? 2. Quality. Does my work meet or exceed customer expectations? 3. Efficiency. Reward making the right buy versus build decision. 4. Reusability. How do others leverage my work? 5. Supportability. How much work do I create for others?

There was a time where online was not the real world. It was a plaything. Vulnerabilities were just something you try to address some day. And now the real world does not exist. It's just this.

Lastly, it can be easy to assume that there is no way to protect privacy, and that surveillance gets worse every year. Don’t give up hope — there are many reasons to be optimistic. Here are just a few:

I've done an unusual number of mentoring calls this week, and one thing I'd like to remind everyone is, you are enough, and you can't forget how far you've come. You're most likely in the best position you've ever been in to build on top of everything you've done until this point.

Pressure from employees at tech and social media companies has been one of the few things that has been effective in getting these companies to change their policies. What you do, what you say, and what you agree to build in these times matters a lot.

This feels like it could be a cyberpunk 2077 side mission “protect workers protesting from corpos” - except it’s real, and the writing is worse.

Hey @jeffgeerling.com how are you liking your Bambu lab p1s printer now that you’ve had it for a bit? It’s 150 off, and I’m thinking of getting it. Have you set it up with home assistant or anything like octoprint yet? :)

I know this is mega jank, but it works! Semi inspired by @jeffgeerling.com My garage space is pretty far from my actual apartment. So this pi is running as an AP hosting its own WiFi network and it’s just running a little flask python app. I’ll definitely be improving this more :)

I went to my very first convention ever for tech and it was #kubecon! Being new the community I got to meet a lot of great people who were willing to answer my questions. Can’t wait to learn more and hopefully be able to give back!

Just an ungodly amount of stickers from KubeCon.

A rule which has served me well: Be sensitive to people alerting on a ~problem~, but insensitive to their prescriptions for it. This privileges you to information you don't ideologically reflexively excuse through any artificially injected baggage. Discontent is a powerful signal not refutable.
