The challenge is that a) my dog has gotten old and needs a lot of my attention, b) I am starting to work again (I don't recommend this, btw), and c) I am still fixing the damage caused by the last cats that lived here

This article, which I found in @zackwhittaker’s most excellent newsletter that you should absolutely subscribe to, is extremely interesting: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2026-02-19/vpn-used-by-us-government-failed-to-stop-china-state-sponsored-hackersIt’s behind a paywall and I totally do NOT recommend you use a website like removepaywall.com (using option 3) to view it without having to pay. That would be just unethical. Don’t do that.

@Stomata @simonzerafa @zackwhittaker these seem like terrible things that no one should be doing right away

@renchap I don't blame Hetzner, and I know they aren't the only ones. It's going to soon impact just about everything else we do online, I am guessing.

I don't love that the reward for doing well in a work meeting is more meetings. Seems like it should work the other way.

I got an unironic report that an account has a bad aura. Now I’m not going to discount the possibility of this being true, but I’m curious how to measure whether an account’s aura has strayed too far from a good baseline aura.

I get to speak to a masters in cyber security class at a major university on Monday. They are learning about interacting with senior leadership/BoD on topics of cyber risk. I have many stories to share with them, but curious if y’all have any ideas on what you thank that group should know

Has anyone ever heard of a security breach of a Fedramp moderate or higher authorized environment? I mean the parts that are authorized.

One thing I did not realize, while Doge was running around last year, they cut the fedramp budget in half and that’s apparently where the 20x program comes in. That used to be an incredibly invasive assessment process taking over a year and now the apparently do them in 5 weeks. I can see no way this will end in disaster.

I was reflecting on all that unused datacenter space that is inconveniently concentrated in living rooms.
