Look at the walking monument to human failure. A man with the character of a sewer rat, the integrity of a crooked carnival barker, the compassion of a vulture, and the intellectual depth of a mud puddle.

Dear Europe, If any of you tie your military or economy to Elon Musk, then you're also giving Elon control over the OFF switch. You can see what happened in Ukraine when Elon turned it OFF. People died. Be smart. Go domestic. Avoid all things Elon Musk.

Impressions from @linuxfoundation.org opensource summit in Prague: Lot of american-style smiles and bombastic statements, not much content (except for few precious gems). It did not feel like an OSS conf. It felt like open-washing U.S. propaganda. Is this what "success" of open source looks like?

It is too easy to fake compliance with cybersecurity regulations by employing genAI. It is quite likely to pass scrutiny, as both auditors and authorities are confused and overwhelmed. However, even though you can fake compliance, you cannot fake cybersecurity. Reality always bites back.

Software development takes time, lot of time. Software built for today's requirements is going to be obsolete when it is finally released. Therefore, software needs to be built to satisfy future requirements.

Popular opinion states that software should be designed and implemented according to current requirements. Of course, that statement is completely wrong.

Vast majority of them are very obviously regurgitated AI slop. The same sites, providing useless, diluted (and often wrong) information. I do not remember Internet being in such a sorry state a year ago. This is really sad trend.

I'm putting together a CRA-compliant methodology for product risk assessment. Whenever I search for any general cybersecurity topic (risk, threat modeling, vulnerability management, ...), I always get a full page of useless search results.

Is it just me, or is cybersecurity full of AI slop?

Interesting phenomenon: chatbots are surprisingly useful to me when they give obviously *wrong* answer (which happens a lot). In such case I start to "argue" with the answer in my head, and it is much easier to realize what is the right answer. It works like expensive rubber duck debugging.

However, the most important of all: vibrant community has grown around midPoint. MidPoint would be nothing without all of you. Thank you all! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAEH...

More context on this #Artemis II image: * This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right * The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon: ☀️🌍🚀🌕

A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)

Do you think shadow IT is a serious cybersecurity risk? You have seen nothing yet. Just wait. Everybody thinks that they are engineers, vibecoding all kinds of stuff. That mess is going to be embedded everywhere, at every step. Vibe coders are producing Cybersecurity nightmare at a massive scale.

At a women in STEM event today, someone bemoaned the lack of women doing computer science. At tea, a young women who had left the AI/tech world told me this: “it’s just full of men lying about how good they are & constantly competing”. Just maybe the problem is with tech culture & not the women… 🤔

My phone got stolen, which caused all kinds of trouble. The thief managed to make wireless payments with the phone. The way how he was able to do that remains a mystery and it raises several serious questions about fintech and mobile security. See my blog: identitywizard.net/blog/2026/03...

Well, right, somehow good news. There are few little problems: 1. I have used Motorola phones for decades, migrated away due to their annoying bloatware. 2. I doubt they will go opensource. 3. They are Chinese.

True. Not a complete liberation yet. However, it is an excellent first step. Then, Murena provides its own services, they do not rely on Google as identity or service provider (except for some cases such as push notifications and Play store access, obviously). It is a very good start!
