@steipete Thanks @steipete it was helpful at helping me trim down my README too, actually.

@steipete Thanks! Running it against my Vulnerability Scanner skill now. github.com/TheSethRose/Vu…

Folks: when you write skills, ask your agent to be token efficient, relax grammer. I see too many skills that write books in the skill description, and all that crap is loaded into every context. I wrote a skill that finds the worst offenders. github.com/steipete/agent…

@Cointelegraph Another supply chain attack, another compromised package, another reminder that no human can keep up with this manually anymore. github.com/TheSethRose/Vu…

🚨 ALERT: TrapDoor malware is targeting crypto and AI developers via a supply chain attack, deploying 34 malicious packages to steal wallets, SSH keys, and API keys. The malware also injects hidden instructions to hijack AI coding assistants including Claude and Cursor.

🚨 TrapDoor supply chain attack hits npm, PyPI, and Crates-io. thehackernews.com/2026/05/trapdo… 34 malicious packages across 384 versions were used to steal crypto wallets, SSH keys, cloud credentials, and developer secrets from crypto, DeFi, Solana, and AI environments. The malware abused npm hooks, Python imports, and Rust build scripts for execution and persistence.

🚨 BREAKING: Active supply chain attack across npm, PyPI, and Crates.​io. Socket detected TrapDoor, a crypto stealer campaign hitting 34 malicious packages and 384 versions and artifacts, with attackers repeatedly pushing new releases across ecosystems. TrapDoor targets #crypto, #DeFi, AI, and security developers, stealing wallets, SSH keys, cloud credentials, GitHub tokens, browser data, env vars, and API keys. Socket detected releases with a median detection time of 5 minutes, 27 seconds. The fastest detection occurred 58 seconds after publication.

Security 𝕏 has been a horror feed lately. Every week it is another supply chain attack, another compromised package, another reminder that no human can keep up with this manually anymore. So I created an Agent Skill to proactively check my repos nightly at 2AM. All 49 of my active repos. At once. (...and yes I have ADHD 😅) If it finds issues, it spins up Codex per repo to try fixing them, then verifies the result with the same scanner. Try it out - github.com/TheSethRose/Vu…

What movie should I watch with my wife? No horror movies

I tried to do something simple tonight. Set up my smoker. You know, normal “man” stuff. My dad died when I was in my 20s. Unfortunately, he wasn’t around long enough for me to learn that stuff from him. Fishing. Sports. Car repairs. Grilling. Fixing things. I’ve avoided grilling and smoking my whole adult life, until work decided that was a good gift for me for some reason. So I burned my hand and still somehow managed to still not start a fire. Yeah, I know grown men can learn things. I know YouTube and ChatGPT exist. Here I am 18 years later, and all I could think was: Why did he have to fucking die? Grief loves to show up in weird places and it sucks. At least I can use AI now to see what he might have looked like now and think about how he might have seen my son graduate.

JUST IN: Marc Andreessen reveals “AI vampires” are emerging in Silicon Valley — coders getting so little sleep because they stay up all night building with agents.

...and it's working! My @NousResearch Hermes agent can now fully help me manage my home network. And if you have AT&T Fiber and the BGW-320 Modem, then so can you. github.com/TheSethRose/BG…

It’s going to be interesting as AI and robotics keep expanding, that’s for sure. Right now, the main drivers are financial and popularity. I think if AI and robotics keep expanding to the point where the desire for those things starts to fade....are we going to be able to cleanly predict what will replace them? I know something will though...and its prob going to be weird 🤔

As more people come to recognize the tells of AI, which mostly happens as you start to work with AI a lot, the scales are going to fall from their eyes and they are going to realize what some of us already see: how much of this site (and blog posts, articles, papers) are AI now.

Update: it now pulls live broadband status. ✅ Fiber is up. ✅ Lightspeed network detected. ✅ 10,000 Mbps link. ✅ Full duplex. ✅ 0 drops. ✅ 0 receive errors. Way better than logging into the cursed AT&T web UI

@OfficialLoganK The pie is absolutely getting bigger. The problem is everyone pretending their slice is guaranteed.

It’s easy to forget just how quickly the size of the pie (AI Market) is expanding in nearly every category

@elder_plinius Did Pliny just make a @dreadfulbird reference or am I too online?

HEY! YOU! 🫵 why are you breathing so fast?? slow it dowwwn. 8 seconds in. 8 seconds out. unclench your jaw. drop your shoulders. drink some water. do a good deed today ✨

Anthropic hiring Karpathy and giving him the 'Member of Technical Staff' title is so good. The man helped define modern deep learning and they didn’t even make him Assistant to the Regional Manager.

@AnthonyDo I tried to use EAP for help managing the workload. While I was on the phone setting it up, I got told to drop everything and join a call. Literally interrupted me using the benefit meant to help me survive the stress. 🤣

@sethrose Dude take it easy and chill

Your body keeps receipts. My 3-day weekend started with a fever for literally no reason, except it's actually probably obvious. I've been working 60-70 hour weeks while trying to build a side hustle to escape needing 60-70 hour weeks. You would think I wouldn't need another reminder to slow down, considering I had cancer in 2023. Instead, I think it caused me to double down, so here we are. Thank God I have tomorrow off. I need to do absolutely nothing like it’s a moral obligation.

I’m making a CLI for my AT&T Fiber modem because I refuse to keep using its terrible web UI.
