whoever it was that suggested giving your cat a treat at the same time you need to take meds every day was a genius because even if you forget, your cat won't it was somebody on Tumblr and I only ever saw a screenshot, but whoever came up with it is doing the Lord's work
Every router, every wifi access point, every IP phone, every fax machine, all the cabling. Yes, even the cabling. https://t.co/vCSRE4jHW8
Santa is a fastidious LISP programmer: - he's making a list - he's checking it twice - also have you seen that beard
right, so, me not knowing really anything about the world of memecoins, I apparently sent a few DMers a coinbase address but if people are insisting on sending me memecoins about my cat, I'm not gonna say no G9aQdwMgPXxVWhZ4TsGCZzXn1fLHzNELrKdppNjRPPBv is also me https://t.co/VZ428Bsh2e
This is genius bug bounty response, tbh https://t.co/6i2xSb3vfj
I feel like anti-mask people are either unaware or ignoring that mask regulations are an incredible win for civil rights, specifically anonymity. Places we normally consider quite progressive (eg France, NYC) had blanket bans on face coverings for YEARS.
Mathematically impossible means NO ONE can do it. It is mathematically impossible to build encryption that protects you but not terrorists.
Some may say "but these people were amateurs, look at all of them posting selfies online!" By and large that's true, and it's why we'll still have a Republic at the end of the day. A mob of amateurs is a convenient place to hide professionals.
1/ A #langsec take on https://t.co/VSL0MskF6U: Okay, so basically the reason mRNA vaccines work is 1) a parser differential between how the immune system interprets an unfamiliar token (the π± nucleoside) and how ribosomes interpret it,
When Len died, @dakami was one of the first people who reached out. He DMed his phone number. Thatβs just who he was. When a trans friend of ours couldnβt afford surgery, he paid for it so that dysphoria wouldnβt get in the way of her hacking. Thatβs just who he was.
@fuckyouiquit The state labour board is gonna have a field day with all that wage theft.
You can either have e-commerce, e-government, and the Internet of Things, or you can have no encryption and NONE OF THEM.
Friend: "I don't want to get an Elf on the Shelf. What can I tell my kid?" Me: "In this house we don't acclimate children to surveillance."
You know how the Puritans named people for virtues and stuff? Mathematicians could totally do that too. "Analytical Roberts." "Scalene Jones." "There-Exists-At-Least-One Henderson."
Journalists: Stop thinking that just because nerds are smart, we can do mathematically impossible things.
If you want to eliminate fake news, find business models that don't rely on whoring users' attention out to advertisers. (13/14)

"Medical devices are one of the few places where the phrase 'remote execution vulnerability' is meant literally." @perrymetzger #langsec2017
@copumpkin @sergeybratus Ethereum isn't a smart contracts language, it's a collection of vulnerabilities that happens to implement a smart contracts language.

COVID19 struck down reactionary, authoritarian anti-anonymity legislation, and threw a massive wrench into the surveillance stateβs toolkit overnight. Iβm honestly rather delighted by this.
It's a very well-researched and respectful article, but to the best of my knowledge, Len was not Satoshi. Worth reading for the history and the conclusions about mental health, though. https://t.co/am4EG57YvC
You have to be a pretty rogue state to think livetweeting your military assault on other people is a good idea.
@1reddragon696 @jeeeverz And that's why we say that Texas means friends :)
Len heeft specifiek gevraagd dat hij in een sober, simpel graf wou liggen. Het feit dat jij het woord "pover" gebruikt in je titel is eerlijk gezegd een belediging voor mij als weduwe. @HLN_BE https://t.co/yKXUyNyB7O
Okay, since this hellsite is going on at length about Jigsaw Puzzle Baked Bean Dad, who I wonβt link directly because the pile-on is big enough already, hereβs a story about how my dad introduced me to auto repair. A thread.
https://t.co/A47YgBKXQl is a gross disservice to the Tor community. People deserve to know why Tor evicted its resident sociopath.

Friends, I come bearing sad news; Sasha, the Most Interesting Cat in the World, passed away in his sleep sometime early in the morning on January 9, 2024. He would have been 18 this summer. He was cremated this afternoon in a private ceremony and will live in our hearts forever. https://t.co/5AuNgggM0Z

Hey @oscon, I hear you're blocking devs on Twitter who ask why you're blocking devs on Twitter. Will you still bug me for free talks now?
Y'all, I just got a mission from God. On New Year's Eve, as the clock ticks over to 2021, let's get everyone in the world to sing @JourneyOfficial's "Don't Stop Believin'", wherever they are. Lean out a window, rock out on Zoom, anywhere. Just don't stop. https://t.co/7FKYxoOu84

You don't just kick sociopaths down the road and play like you've done the necessary. That's extending their social license to operate.
These bans were often prejudicially motivated; black men wearing face coverings were assumed in NYC to be robbers, the French laws were aimed at Muslim traditional dress, fuelled by a combination of terrorism panic and moral panic.

@SashaCoinSOL Thank you. It's very kind of you.

Fellow autists, I have a proposal. Have you considered chainmail shirts? I love weighted blankets, but they're hard to walk around my flat with. The great thing about my chainmail shirt is that it's a weighted blanket I can walk around in.

Anyone whining via social media that uses HTTPS about terrorists "using encryption" can be safely assumed to be ignorant on the topic.
You're not complimenting us by saying "you're smart, so do it!" You are insulting us because you're threatening us: "obey or we hurt you".
Yes. You should point out that it is actually illegal for Apple or any other US employer to ban its employees from discussing their compensation. https://t.co/Di7v92DAEY

The person who needs to review @notthreadguy's podcast before it drops is me and I promise to do it ASAP. I don't think it will take long. We had a great time recording and it was smooth sailing. Talk to you all tomorrow. I'm making an early night of it. https://t.co/KPb78AmIY4
The implication of the guilty verdict in @rabite's case is that "unlawful access to a computer" is now defined by corporate whim. #freeweev

I'm looking for a neurodiverse developer to build a couple of parsers using a novel grammar format that @djinnius' team has been building here at Special Circumstances. We're 100% remote, and this can be PT or FT. My DMs are open. (if this isn't you, RTs for reach appreciated)

The sense of ownership and pride that this act of fixing my own car created is indescribably beautiful, and a big part of why it came out that way is that my dad set me up for success at every step. He never left me hanging.
When Nerds Collide: https://t.co/bMGujA24ae My intersectionality will have weirdoes or it will be bullshit.
Lately I've had a lot of DMs asking various things about Len. While I love to talk about him and don't want to close my DMs, I am not an information dispenser. He was my *husband*. That means I loved him and I miss him. It doesn't mean I know everything there was to know.
The trick to having a lot of good ideas is having even more terrible ideas and being able to tell the difference.

For the record I continue to believe it highly likely (>95% probability) that Len was not Satoshi, but I'm honestly and manifestly convinced that CodeCon was a vehicle for the ideas, projects, and principles that gave rise to bitcoin. https://t.co/xypdB89gfT
