#curl's law: Everything eventually runs curl A trend in society over the last decade and I don't see it changing anytime soon.

If it isn’t powered now, it will be soon
If it is powered, it will be networked
If it is networked, it needs Internet access
If it needs Internet access, curl helps

Child murders several other children, is himself murdered by armed private citizen. The state monopoly on armed violence no longer pertains in the US. This is a basic prerogative of modern rule by law. That's not a "polite society". That's the Wild West. That's Mad Max. #guncontrol #bendoregon

People who find LLMs useful when "used correctly" don’t understand that they manage to use them correctly because they spent 20 years of there life learning their craft without LLMs. LLMs is the only tool where the less you use it, the better you become at using it.

Corvids are widely considered some of the smartest animals on Earth, with cognitive abilities that rival those of great apes and young human children. Their problem-solving skills, use of tools, make them standout subjects in animal intelligence research.

In a subway station dug into the mountain, someone has left a book on a somewhat "shelfy" part of the rock.

More books. Stacked on the ticket machine this time. Free to take for whomever needs a read!

Come Wednesday, CVE-2026-92392 is the #curl CVE everyone will think either was blown out of proportions or was underestimated or something else. That happened the last time we reported a HIGH severity issue and I expect it to happen again. libcurl is a rather generic LIBRARY - it is used in […]

Russian bot traffic has dropped to nearly 0 after Ukraine struck a Yandex data center in Vladimir, Russia

• Source Network: AS13238 YANDEX – Yandex LLC (Russian Federation)
• Traffic Breakdown: Prior to the drop, bot traffic accounted for roughly 99.6% of requests compared to 0.4% human traffic.
• Event Cause: The sudden plunge to zero on October 11, 2026, corresponds to a reported military/drone attack on Yandex's data center facility in Vladimir, Russia—marking the third reported attack on Yandex data infrastructure since October 8.

this week I learned that during a merge conflict, you can get a list of all commits involved in the conflict that touched a file with: $ git log --merge FILENAME Seems super useful if there are a lot of commits being merged (like in a big rebase) but only a couple of them touched that file

Just had the creepiest scam ever happen
20 minutes ago.

wallet and needed the credit card to pay for her gas.
Except my wife was at home with me, and drives a Tesla.
Same voice, bit... off, weird cadence but 100% sounded
just like her. If she wasn't there, and it wasn't about
gas | would have fallen for it.
| entertained it for awhile to get more out of it, | was so
confused. Must be some sort of voice deepfake.
The responses were too fast for ai, | think it was a voice

The future is about to get fucked. Warn your loved ones,
do verbal passwords with your kids.
Bit taken aback.

When we announce over 20 new #curl CVEs on October 14, you will learn that every single one of them were found by clever humans using harnesses powered by AI models. Every. Single. One. The holy trinity of modern vulnerability research.
