Found some performance improvements that increase the Mifare Dictionary Attack speed on the @flipper_net significantly - for example a full search of 14 keys takes only 17 instead of 29 minutes on a random hotel card. Code here: github.com/stacksmashing/…

Exciting news from @Apple today! Hardware security keys will soon be offered as a 2FA option to protect your iCloud account 🎉 theverge.com/2022/12/7/2349…

This @dms3tv video about using @RogueAmoeba's Loopback to create a 12-speaker (!) @Dolby Atmos system speaks my language. I love this. (And I want this, too.)

In the last 10 years Fabrice Bellard has added multiple distros to this, real networking ability and the ability to run X windows, all running in the browser. This is the same guy who made QEMU, ffmpeg, Tiny C compiler and a faster way of computing Pi in hexadecimal. Have fun.

Peach's Castle Grounds act as metaphorical bookends on the entirety of the Nintendo 64 library of Mario games. The first scene of the first Mario game on the system, and the final scene of the final Mario game on the system, both take place in this location.

Explains the tricks that GNU grep uses to make it fast. The --mmap option mentioned here was interesting, but later deprecated because it caused more problems than it was worth. git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grep.git/…

You almost always have time. Even when someone else is saying it’s urgent or an emergency. Unless there is an actual fire or someone’s life is at risk, it’s not an emergency. Either they waited too long or they’re reacting to someone else’s stress. None of that is your problem.

@mattklein123 @adamhjk My thoughts on performance management have advanced quite a bit since I gave this talk in 2013, but this tells you everything wrong with the way most people do it -- and I stand by it: youtube.com/watch?v=1KeYzj…

I want to make a software engineering magic 8-ball where every answer is "It depends"

have I told you about the time someone stole parts for a nuclear fusion reactor from outside my house youtu.be/piPbnKdve9M

We did a deep dive on how Apple Passkeys work slashid.dev/blog/passkeys-… Quick summary: 1/ Passkeys make the WebAuthn UX significantly better while preserving the anti-phishing properties. This can be a game changer at scale
