Weekly Update 376
I’m irrationally excited about the new Prusa 3D printer on order, and I think that’s mostly to do with planning for the NDC Oslo talk I plan to do with Elle, my 11-year old daughter. I’m all for getting the kids exposure not just

Weekly Update 375
For a weekly update with no real agenda, we sure did spend a lot of time talking about the ridiculous approach Harvey Norman took to dealing with heavy traffic on Black Friday. It was just… unfathomable. A bunch of people chimed into the tweet thread and suggested it may have
Weekly Update 374
Think about it like this: in 2015, we all lost our proverbial minds at the idea of the Kazakhstan government mandating the installation of root certificates on their citizens’ devices. We were outraged at the premise of a government mandating the implementation of a model that could, at their

Most of this week’s video went on the scraped (and faked) LinkedIn data, but it’s the ransomware discussion that keeps coming back to mind. Even just this morning, 2 days after recording this live stream, I ended up on nation TV talking about the DP World

There seemed to be an awful lot of time gone on the 23andMe credential stuffing situation this week, but I think it strikes a lot of important chords. We’re (us as end users) still reusing credentials, still not turning on MFA and still trying to sue when we
Weekly Update 368
This must be my first “business as usual” weekly update since August and damn it’s nice to be back to normal! New sponsor, new breaches, new blog post and if you’re in this part of the world, a brand new summer creeping over the
Weekly Update 363
I’m super late pushing out this week’s video, I mean to the point where I now have a couple of days before doing the next one. Travel from the opposite side of the world is the obvious excuse, then frankly, just wanting to hang out with
