Do you like knowing stuff or maybe learning stuff? Stuff about security vulnerabilities? Maybe even data stuff (or things) about security vulnerabilities. Then heyyyy, do we have the workshop for you! CFP ends May 17! www.vulnopticon.org

I am continuously impressed by Export Control lists. Apparently now we can't have free lunch in space with our computers. knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/sites/defaul...

Regarding the ffmpeg drama, as discussed by @patrick.risky.biz on risky.biz: we should also consider that ffmpeg is/has been used by Google in Chrome and Youtube. Even if it's not directly, so many video makers are using that library, that Google really should bear some cost of development there.

How do I disable announced notifications from workout on my watch? These notifications are interrupting music or podcasts when I’m cycling and I don’t want them.

Since iOS 18.2 i have problems with Mail. It’s hardly downloading new mail from my imap server. Anybody else having this too? Anything I can do about it to fix? Nothing changed on my server end (Dovecot). I’ve even tried to disable IMAP IDLE, but that also does not help.

In many of my ethics lectures I use the example of the New York taxi dataset. Imagine my surprise that the Dutch government now wants to introduce such a system. autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/actueel/ap-c...

Password policies are evil and should be burned to the ground. The piece that Stuart Schechter wrote on their history however, is so incredibly misguided. It is bonkers to think that we would have had a more secure world without password hashing.

The way we do #science 🧪currently could do with some shakeups. This blog post by experimental history builds on some earlier posts, and lays bare the pain points of the current scientific climate. But it also presents a way to get out of that! Let’s build more #ScienceHouses !

CVE 2020-19909 in Curl has been interesting to watch. It's weird that NVD decided last week that it needed a CVSS score, and even weirder that they came up with a 9.8 for it. Now it's been marked "Disputed" with an explanation that it is not likely to be exploited.

Can’t wait till they’re all talking about “x-ing”, that does not sound awkward at all.

It seems surprising that as a society we lose the ability to do certain things. And then this week I ran into one: we have lost the ability to quickly set up a mailinglist. Even the age old mailop list ends up in my spam folder due to standard outlook spam filtering.

When was the last time a company was compromised _solely_ because a user clicked on a link? Which product is so dangerous that an entire company can be shut down because someone used that product as intended? Details welcome!

This is also an accurate description of posting to bsky for the first time.
