@ryanels In such cases, you should turn off the computer, wait 30 seconds, and turn it back on 😉

Tech support be like 😂🤭

DSRS testing update: I ran the latest build on both a Windows Server 2025 system and a Windows client machine. The good news: the results were meaningfully different. The server report was much tougher, which is exactly what I want from a posture tool. Different platform, different profile, different risk picture. That tells me DSRS is starting to move beyond “scan and dump findings” and toward real context-aware security posture reporting. Still early. Still tuning. But this is the kind of testing that makes a tool real. The attached screenshot is from the Server 2025 run.

@Abhishekcur Nice 👍 This is where most people fail “The only limit is how long you keep the equation running”

THE EQUATION THEY DON'T TEACH IN SCHOOL: Let's define the variables: O₁ = Optimistic Perspective S = Smart Work H = Extreme Hard Work O₂ = Obsession F = Extreme Focus The Formula: (O₁ + S + H + O₂ + F)ⁿ = 💥 where n = time invested Proof: O₁ → removes the negative coefficient from your mindset S → optimizes the direction vector of your effort H → multiplies the magnitude of your output O₂ → makes your function continuous, never stops running F → eliminates all variables that don't matter Result = an output that approaches INFINITY The Theorem: "Success is not random. It is a solvable equation. Most people just refuse to do the math." Note: There are no shortcuts in this formula. No hacks. No tricks. Just clean, beautiful, compounding math. n → ∞ means your results → ∞ The only limit is how long you keep the equation running.

Last night’s DSRS update: Added 12 more Windows security checks. DSRS now covers 38 checks in the current Community Preview flow. Improved the reporting system again. Set up the DSRS site. Tonight’s plan: test the tool on Windows 11 and Windows Server. Step by step, DSRS is becoming a serious Windows security posture tool 🔥

DSRS update: I’ve been improving the tool step by step, with a big focus on making the output more useful, not just more technical. Recent work includes: - a much stronger reporting engine - clearer findings and recommended actions - local-only report generation - new Windows security checks added to the scanner Still early, but DSRS is becoming a much more serious Windows security posture tool.

@techyoutbe Yes 👍

Should I start posting on LinkedIn? Does it worth to make efforts?

@exQUIZitely Masterpieces indeed

Prince of Persia (1989), Another World (1991), and Flashback (1992) - over a timespan of just 4 years, we were given some of the best platformers in gaming history. I wish they'd still make games like this. But then again, you can always replay the old masterpieces...

I also think it's a state of mind, people sometimes tell themselves it's going to be hard, or listen to others tell them it's going to be hard, well maybe it is, but if you convince yourself in advance that it's going to be hard... it really will be hard... I'm glad you have another way of looking at things, and it's not just about studying 🔥

The more I learn, the lighter I feel. And I know that sounds backwards. Shouldn't knowing more feel heavy? Shouldn't it feel overwhelming? But it's actually the opposite. True learning doesn't pile things onto your mind, it organizes them. It connects them. Things start coming to you automatically, effortlessly, like your brain already knew where to put them. The mind that truly understands something never feels burdened by it. It's rote learning that makes you heavy. Memorizing without meaning. Storing without understanding. That's the kind of learning that exhausts you. True learning doesn't add weight. It adds wings. Learning is not hard, we just make it hard.

@csaba_kissi Yes, and sometimes I also let the AI ​​make it more “strong” with an additional prompt.

@RShmider Ig you know how to write then surely

Unpopular opinion: Writing a good prompt for your AI coding assistant is a skill, not cheating.

@Abhishekcur Yes, what are the risks + priority in a clear and easy to read report

@RShmider 100% true factss ser, this thing is what reall engineering needs

One thing I care a lot about with DSRS: not just detecting security gaps, but explaining which fixes matter first. A scanner that throws 30 findings at you is easy to build. A tool that helps you prioritize what actually reduces risk is much harder. That is the direction I’m pushing DSRS.

@omermic בהצלחה 👍

עדיין מחפש. באמצע מרץ קיבלתי הודעה מפתיעה שהסטרטאפ שעבדתי בו נסגר. בדרך הבנתי שאני רוצה לשנות כיוון, לגעת יותר בקוד ופחות בניהול ולכן מחפש משרת סניור פולסטאק עם עדיפות לרימוט, כי אני גר במשולש הגבולות ישראל לבנון סוריה. 13 שנות ניסיון, מיליוני שורות קוד, עשרות פרויקטים מאפס ועד פרוד. TypeScript, Node.js ו-React אשמח לשיתופים, ליטופים, או סתם לייק לדופמין

OK this will be fun. Let's go gamers 👇🏻

Weekend progress on DSRS: Most security tools spit out data. I want DSRS to spit out clarity. Last night and over the weekend I pushed a major improvement to the reporting engine, and the difference is big: clearer findings, better explanations, stronger structure, and a report that actually feels useful instead of noisy. Still early. But it is starting to look like a real Windows security product. If you work in Windows security, IT, or cybersecurity and want to test it, send me a message.

@Abhishekcur Good luck, and I'm sure you'll be an asset wherever you work.

Actively looking for my next role.Distributed systems · Infra · High-performance · Rust. DM me if you're hiring or know someone who is.

@brockpierson Sega Genesis ✅

It is the mid 90's and it's your birthday as a kid: Which console would you be happier to open as a present?

For the past few weeks, I have been building a night side project called DSRS (one of several other night side projects). It stands for Device Security Risk Score. The idea is simple: A Windows machine gets a score based on its actual security posture, then DSRS explains: •what is wrong •what matters most •what should be fixed first •how much the score could improve after remediation My goal is to make DSRS useful for: •MSPs •security consultants •IT teams •anyone who needs a clearer Windows security posture assessment Right now I am focused on turning it into something that is: •credible •easy to explain •useful in real environments If you work with Windows security, posture assessment, hardening, or client reports, I would love to hear what would make a tool like this genuinely useful for you.

@exQUIZitely Computer systems: Sega master system (and mega drive/genesis) PC Favorite genres: RPG Quests (adventures)

It's time for a new raffle; I just noticed that the last one was in February. Normally, what I do is to select 15-20 games from my collection, take a picture and then let people pick one that they'd like to win. After 5 days I draw a random winner - that person then gets the game of their choice. The last raffle included the games in the picture below, the winner back then got Space Quest II (Atari ST). I will try a slightly different approach this time. Let me know... ...what your 2 main computer systems are for which you would like to see a new selection of games for the new raffle. ...what your 2 favorite genres (RPG, adventure, strategy, etc.) are - so I can then add games of those genres to the raffle. Most of the games I have are from the 80s and 90s, just as a heads up... New raffle will be posted in 3 days, with games for systems based on your replies here.
