I'm looking for some new music and artists to listen to. I'm open to all genres. What's one newcomer track/artist and one deep cut you'd recommend to someone?

@Emily My heart goes out to everyone. A lot of folks are already feeling burnt out and then this is dropped on them.

@j_opdenakker You just gotta these days! There's this physical penetration tester on the roof every year at my house that's been trying to get access to my snacks.

My Skill Trees project is starting to grow! I'm building up a collection of printable open source templates that can guide and track progression in hands-on skills. Colour in the boxes as you complete each skill and get inspired to try new things. I'm seeking experts in a variety of areas to continue to grow the repository and help with translation into different languages. Check out the link for the full list: github.com/sjpiper145/MakerSki

A preview thumbnail of a range of A4 size skill trees, arranged to show topics including laser cutting, crochet, metalworking, PCB Design, Sewing, Woodworking, Emedded systems and 3D printing skill trees.  In the foreground, a hand begins to colour in the tiles on a skill tree.  The title reads "Skill Trees - Colour in, Level up, Get Inspired".

Okay Fediverse, as funding is not happening at the levels necessary to sustain me working full-time on the Fediverse (whether that's on trust & safety or on Mastodon), I'm now looking for part-time or contract positions.

Most recently I worked for Sir Tim Berners-Lee's company Inrupt.

LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/thisismissem

I'm based in Berlin, but tend to work EST.

Holla if you wanna work together: emelia+hireme@brandedcode.com

@evacide @kkeller I'm starting to understand why Indeed.com had me answer those customer service competency questionnaires. When I was taking it I thought, "Do people really respond to other humans this way?". Looks like they do

Is it common when asking questions to a cybersecurity panel full of dudes to not actually answer your question and instead try to pivot the topic to something about them? I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that's what just happen to me.

@bluecat Thanks for the advice and perspective! I think I get too distracted from all those LinkedIn posts of folks getting directly into cybersecurity jobs without any kind of IT experience and makes me think, "Am I doing this wrong?"

2023-11-09

@bluecat Do you think there's still value in going through the help desk route for newbies trying to get into cybersecurity? Or is there a less painful way? Asking for a friend 😅

“So it says here you’ve held executive positions at Theranos, FTX and most recently, WeWork.”

“That’s right, I’ve dedicated my career to non-profits.”

Guided her 275 million followers to Vote.org

Urges her fans to register to vote and to learn about the issues

She’s the catalyst for over 35,000 new voters to register on Vote.org after national voter registration day

I can’t name a single one of her songs, but I’m a Taylor Swift fan

Image of Taylor swift. Dang. She’s really sexy.

If you're a small/medium business and struggled with log collection and searching for a Windows environment, then you should take a look at Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's open source LME tool.

This is a collection of instructions, GPOs, and #ELK that walk you through log forwarding, collection and searching. This is a really great resource!

@maldr0id I wonder if the son called his dad's bluff about installing that software and now they're both locked in, unable to back down even as the list of the craziest porn accumulates on both their account.
