Reminder: Monday, 6 March starts the 2023 Human Genome Editing Summit in London. For those of us in the U.S. who care to get up in the wee hours, the summit will be available via Vimeo or Zoom (see website). I believe the video will continue to be available after the meeting as well but that's just my guess.

Ok folks, in light of the outage and DDoS from the last 24hrs, we've setup a backup Fosstodon account - @fosstodon@mastodon.social

Please follow that account too if you want to keep up with outage notifications etc.

I came to Rome, and visited the Vatican, and climbed ~320 steps, and took many photos.

But my favourite is this cranky-looking seagull.

TikTok knows a worrying amount of data about you. Here's what it tracks:

1. Device
2. OS
3. Location
4. Keystroke patterns or rhythms
5. Battery state
6. Audio settings
7. Connected audio devices
8. Objects and scenery in videos
9. Existence and location of face and body
10. Text of words spoken

They can do a lot with that data!

@april I worked with Susan back at Chumby, got to meet her once, she's legend. Little known fact, she created our beloved 6 legged corporate mascot, secretly known as the sexapus.

taking a brief moment to crush on Susan Kare.

as NeXT employee #10, she invented many GUI elements and iconographies that we take for granted today.

and she invented Monaco, one of my favorite fonts, alongside Chicago, San Francisco, and Geneva.

oh yeah, and Clarus the Dogcow.

🧵 Did you know that young Jimmy Carter heroically saved Canada from a nuclear meltdown when he was a naval officer?

It's true!

The world’s first nuclear reactor meltdown occurred right here in the Ottawa Valley — and a young U.S. naval officer (future U.S. president Jimmy Carter) was brought in and put in charge of the team containing the disaster — 70 years ago.)

@ceresbzns @SheHacksPurple I believe there is a group affiliated with Women in Cyberjutsu that have a CTF Slack where they mentor new folks and form teams for CTFs

"'This was accomplished by targeting the DevOps engineer's home computer and exploiting a vulnerable third-party media software package, which enabled remote code execution capability and allowed the threat actor to implant keylogger malware,' LastPass officials wrote."

Wait wait wait, back up; his HOME computer? Like, you mean that one out of only four engineers at LastPass had access to core secrets from his own computer, instead of his company laptop?

A computer that ran a version of Plex that apparently hadn't been updated in a good while?

Just move away from LastPass if you haven’t already, please 😂
