Glad to have had the opportunity to present this session today @EthereumDenver Thanks to everyone who joined and kindly shared their appreciation.

@Dhruvam987 Which cruise you at ? Currently on a cruise too. Cruise internet is not cheap though

What’s stopping you from coding in the middle of the ocean like this?

@SapphoSys CTFs now are a solo game. You can still go level up your game choosing not to use AI, or selectively using it. The competition part is a problem to be solved 🙃

it's very sad i'll never be able to experience CTFs in my life :( and there seems to be no point in even trying to attempt these days seeing as how the scene is dead due to AI... shame :c i would have so loved to try challenges myself

Creating PoCs and coding blueprints for ideas is one thing. Shipping production grade products and maintaining code requires software engineering skills.

This is hilarious!

@Alexintosh Unfortunately…. It’s true. But you know there’s also good companies trying to be efficient but getting blocked or stalled by the system. Eventually even if full of energy companies in the beginning get bottlenecked enough, the whole thing just aligns to being slow 🙃

I asked a Portuguese company for a custom mosquito net aluminum frame, it took them 3 weeks to quote me €545. One month for delivery and installation. Watch me 3D print the entire thing for <30€ of PETG

@takkerohan97 There's a quote that goes like this: "Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." I learnt exactly this. There is no shortcut. Just practice enough so that it becomes unreasonable to not pass :-)

@diogper fundamentals take time, but they save you years later...what are some things you realized or learned while preparing for certifications?

For those who’ve landed jobs in #cybersecurity, what made you stand out to get hired ?

@levelsio Great video from @arthurbrooks talking about this - “How to Create Your Calling” youtu.be/oK8K4Nps-p0?is…

There was some great tweet about how work life balance was kinda bs and true freedom is just life mixed with different moments of some work here, some life here and if you love what you do (like creating things) it should be mixed in with your life all the time, but I lost the tweet

Honestly I noticed when I was in a very different timezone, where my morning was when colleagues were asleep. I just did a crazy amount of work, very productive. I feel it’s the same dynamic here but time window is different. Thought in that timezone case, I would go late to sleep due to sync meetings 😅

@thegarybrecka Theres less noise at night, at it feels its easier to focus or drive work better when no one else is there disturbing or grabbing your attention. Easy to go to bed late due to this...

What is your biggest obstacle to getting consistent, quality sleep? I want to know what actually affects people. Drop it below.

@levelsio Nowadays, I prefer tmux as well!

Using tmux session to have just one shell session across your devices is pretty cool. Back in the day I'd use a command called "screen" for enabling persistent shell sessions and co-op of the sessions on one box machine that we would leave on a client for security assessments. We would have different named shell sessions for the different work we would do, but in your case I guess you just want to easily shell from different devices into the previous session and continue your work...

So here's my latest set up Every site I have is a profile on Termius like > hoodmaps .com I click it and immediately I'm in my server and I get dropped in a tmux session that's always tied to the corresponding site I wanna log in to To make this work I have this startup snippet in each site's Termius profile: > cd /srv/http/hoodmaps.com && tm (so /srv/http is where my sites are and then hoodmaps .com is the example site here, and "&& tm" is the important part here) Then in my ~/.bashrc file I added this (written by Claude Code) which defines the "tm" function, again all it does it just put me in the right tmux session based on the folder I'm in The result is I can switch without interruption from my laptop to phone in Termius with auto reconnecting sessions and usually I just have Claude Code open in each session to work Before I had to mess around with 1) not having smooth switching from laptop to phone, I'd have to use Claude Code's /resume for it, annoying, 2) having multiple sessions for same sites, gets messy and confusing fast, now it FORCES me into one session per site, this just works so well, I'm so fast, and each of my sites is just an open tab in Termius, I've never worked so structured and clean! Here is the code, maybe it helps somebody: # tmux session per folder. `tm` (no args) attaches to / creates a session # named after the current dir's basename. `tm name` overrides the name. # Works whether already inside tmux (uses switch-client) or outside it. tm() { command -v tmux >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo "tmux not installed"; return 1; } local name="${1:-$(basename "$PWD")}" # tmux session names can't contain '.' or ':' — replace with '-' name="${name//./-}" name="${name//:/-}" if [ -n "$TMUX" ]; then tmux has-session -t "$name" 2>/dev/null || tmux new-session -d -s "$name" -c "$PWD" tmux switch-client -t "$name" else tmux attach -t "$name" 2>/dev/null || tmux new -s "$name" -c "$PWD" fi } # Auto-attach on interactive login: picks a session named after wherever # you land. Plain `ssh server` lands in $HOME → session "root". Use # `ssh server -t "cd /srv/sm.levels.io && bash -l"` to land in a site # folder → session "sm-levels-io". Skips inside tmux and non-interactive # shells so scp/rsync/scripted ssh keep working. if command -v tmux >/dev/null 2>&1 && [ -z "$TMUX" ] && [[ $- == *i* ]]; then tm fi

@Im_IrushiK Friday

I'm a full stack developer, Scare me with one word.

@hetmehtaa 1. Use AI to deep dive into concepts and understand them 2. Complete CTFs without AI

How do you learn new things in Cybersecurity in 2026?

@SumitM_X Are you including the entities that are being queried by the application? Then how are we protecting against predictability and enumeration attacks ?

Tech Lead tells you: "Never use UUID as primary key .." Whats your reply ?

@rand_longevity Adding motion to my every day: - Workout mid day - Yoga stretching before sleep - Work from different places morning and afternoon to make me walk

what are you doing to keep yourself healthy?

@levelsio Even if you are restricting your services to a tailnet network do you still do config hardening on the services? Depending on what is running and specially when you have shared hosting, one app compromised might serve as lateral movement for other apps...

Yes but block ALL firewall inbound, install Tailscale for SSH and Cloudflare Tunnel on web port for site

@ishowcybersec There’s only 10 types of person in the world, those who understand this and those who don’t

Write something that only Hackers would understand

😂 I agree, thought this makes it a bit more troublesome

@SuperSaf I’m afraid you never been to Portugal, sir

Hot take: The UK has the best food in the world!
