Day 45 of #100daysofcybersecurityToday I focused on how vulnerabilities are scored and prioritized. Base, Temporal & Environmental metrics Exploitability vs Impact Why is CVSS not equal to Business Risk Explored the CVSS framework maintained by FIRST.

we're making @blocks smaller today. here's my note to the company. #### today we're making one of the hardest decisions in the history of our company: we're reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000. that means over 4,000 of you are being asked to leave or entering into consultation. i'll be straight about what's happening, why, and what it means for everyone. first off, if you're one of the people affected, you'll receive your salary for 20 weeks + 1 week per year of tenure, equity vested through the end of may, 6 months of health care, your corporate devices, and $5,000 to put toward whatever you need to help you in this transition (if you’re outside the U.S. you’ll receive similar support but exact details are going to vary based on local requirements). i want you to know that before anything else. everyone will be notified today, whether you're being asked to leave, entering consultation, or asked to stay. we're not making this decision because we're in trouble. our business is strong. gross profit continues to grow, we continue to serve more and more customers, and profitability is improving. but something has changed. we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly. i had two options: cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out, or be honest about where we are and act on it now. i chose the latter. repeated rounds of cuts are destructive to morale, to focus, and to the trust that customers and shareholders place in our ability to lead. i'd rather take a hard, clear action now and build from a position we believe in than manage a slow reduction of people toward the same outcome. a smaller company also gives us the space to grow our business the right way, on our own terms, instead of constantly reacting to market pressures. a decision at this scale carries risk. but so does standing still. we've done a full review to determine the roles and people we require to reliably grow the business from here, and we've pressure-tested those decisions from multiple angles. i accept that we may have gotten some of them wrong, and we've built in flexibility to account for that, and do the right thing for our customers. we're not going to just disappear people from slack and email and pretend they were never here. communication channels will stay open through thursday evening (pacific) so everyone can say goodbye properly, and share whatever you wish. i'll also be hosting a live video session to thank everyone at 3:35pm pacific. i know doing it this way might feel awkward. i'd rather it feel awkward and human than efficient and cold. to those of you leaving…i’m grateful for you, and i’m sorry to put you through this. you built what this company is today. that's a fact that i'll honor forever. this decision is not a reflection of what you contributed. you will be a great contributor to any organization going forward. to those staying…i made this decision, and i'll own it. what i'm asking of you is to build with me. we're going to build this company with intelligence at the core of everything we do. how we work, how we create, how we serve our customers. our customers will feel this shift too, and we're going to help them navigate it: towards a future where they can build their own features directly, composed of our capabilities and served through our interfaces. that's what i'm focused on now. expect a note from me tomorrow. jack

Saying this about male children when you're one of them is very wild. Where's the unity?

What a coincidence to test this on Africa’s most populous country. A government that cannot provide subsidized fuel and food all of a sudden want to subsidize a drug for #58,000. Lenacapavir (Sunlenca/Yeztugo) costs over $28,000 per year in the US. Na HIV prevention Dey Una more important. Bill, stop experimenting with Africans. You tried with your contraceptives that posed serious health risks, GMO seeds, your Congo experiment, and many failed immunizations that you even had to pay countries to keep shut. It’s now nearly impossible to find anything related to many lawsuits, sanctions and restrictions placed on you online. Well played Mr PR.






Day 44 of #100daysofcybersecurity Focused on the foundations of Vulnerability Assessment & Management: • Vulnerability vs Threat vs Risk • The vulnerability lifecycle • Risk-based prioritisation • How MITRE manages CVEs through the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures program


What’s scary isn’t AI replacing remote IT workers, it’s that the average African hasn’t even tried these tools yet. •Anthropic subscriptions •Claude code tokens •OpenClaw VPS fees, or even a Mac mini to set up •Figma AI and Figma Pro •All those modern AI video generation tools It’s like you know AI will massively reduce your job relevance, and you still can’t afford to use it now, while you still have a chance to stack some money. That’s the real problem. It’s sad, bro.
