For those who are interested, I recently did a live session demoing Helix, my new go-to text editor, for members of the @taggartinstitute.org community. Enjoy! youtu.be/QullbX0JKq8

I want off this ride. Seriously. This whole fiasco might be what kicks me out of tech. I'm so sick of this ridiculous golden calf, this fumed-up Oracle at Delphi. www.businessinsider....

That didn't take long: www.bleepingcomputer...

this court says that allowing EPA to regulate carbon emissions is a "major question" that demands congressional debate. but allowing the president to, with a flick of the wrist, end a straightforward constitutional right is something that must be allowed to stand?

This effectively terminates any hope you may have had that courts would stop the terror, even in the short term. Without universal injunctions, everything will continue until the case arrives at the Supreme Court, only to be rubber-stamped.

Wow, they're actually doing it! Later, ELAM drivers. www.theverge.com/new...

Shameless plug: yes I will come on your podcast to discuss The Homelab Almanac and other infosec topics!

Apparently some ding dong at [REDACTED MAJOR CTI PROVIDER] added private-user-images[.]githubusercontent.com to their IOC feeds. So have fun with that today.

This is the closest thing we've seen to ransomware being a cause of death. When I think about appropriate responses, I cannot conjure restraint. But also: healthcare needs help. What we're doing is not working. www.bbc.com/news/art...

This seems a little bananas. A popular MCP server reference implementation—sqlite—has several SQL Injection vulns. Instead of fixing it, the server is just left unpatched and "archived," along with other servers. Issue opened April 10; servers archived in late May. github.com/modelcont...

Buckle up: IP address SANs coming to LetsEncrypt:

I can't get over the nature of the book collection and ingestion that was deemed "fair use" in the Anthropic case. So they bought up books by the million, ripped them up, scanned them, and discarded the originals. And the resultant digital copies were fair use. www.documentcloud.or...

Market competition fails in monopoly. It also fails when consumers can not distinguish bad products from good—whether because there is no difference, the differences are highly technical, or because there are no reasonable means to evaluate them.

🚨BREAKING: Federal judge concludes that using copyrighted works to train generative A.I. is transformative and ultimately a fair use. (Nevertheless, Anthropic can’t beat the lawsuit because it pirated books for another purpose too.) First of kind ruling. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Publications like LA Taco keep the community safe with this critical reporting. I'm a proud subscriber, and if you're in the area, I recommend supporting them as well—maybe switch up that Times subscription!

BREAKING: SCOTUS over liberals' dissent, blocks district court order requiring process before carrying out third country removals. SCOTUS's order allows Trump admin to carry out third country removals without the protections required—notice and opportunity to raise a challenge. No reason is given.
