Even though I code in #Java, I always find it interesting to understand IT #basics. I found this video by @3blue1brown which explains the Hammer Code.
Check it out if you haven't heard of it!
Seriously, the Outlaw botnet? Still pulling off SSH brute-force attacks in 2024?! Wild how that's *still* getting results. It really just hammers home the point: the fundamentals are absolutely crucial!
You've gotta have solid password habits locked down. Things like key authentication, maybe changing the default SSH port, setting up Fail2ban... c'mon, it isn't exactly brain surgery, right?
But yeah, setting it up takes a bit of effort, doesn't it? And we all know time equals money...
Working as a pentester, I see it way too often – companies cutting corners precisely on these foundational steps. They'd rather splash out on flashy AI security tools, yet leave the digital front door practically wide open. Then, inevitably, everyone acts shocked when things go sideways.
So, I gotta ask: What "basic" security measures do you see getting consistently overlooked where you work? 
"In this emerging #AIera, the very ideas of community and human connection are poised for redefinition.
#Smaller, purpose-driven #communities are the future. The desire for smaller, more intimate communities is undeniable. People are abandoning massive platforms in favor of tight-knit groups where trust and shared values flourish and content is at the core. The future of community building is in going back to the #basics."

I'm a bit off-color again this week, so let's just all share our personal #computer #basics.

May Ensign Suder finally have the peace that he has been hoping for.
Maje Culluh may be pleased, but Seska definitely is not pleased.
Alas poor Hogan.
I wonder where Teirna got the technology to hide a needle that is larger than the toenail that he pulled off his foot. Could it be a Time Lord toenail that bigger on the inside?
Why aren't there any ducks in the pond? Because, they are all pecking at Voyager.
Of course, it is a trap, Chakotay.
Chris Riley has started a "3D Printing Basics" series and this second video is to learn how to do CAD design with Fusion. As always with Chris it's well explained and covered.
It's kind of interesting to see these proto-Kazon.

Suder was such a great character, and his redemption arc is great.
