A bunch of "hackers hacked" stories in my timeline today. 🙄

Reminder: the more you (journalists and editors working at media companies) misuse the h-word to make your story sound 👻 scary 👻, the more you entrench the idea that the problem with security of our day to day devices is that there exist people who have technical skills and are able to break into them – rather than the fact that their manufacturers don't give a crap about security, making that easy.

And the less secure we all become.

Reminder to USAians that the US banking sector being shit and not being able to process transactions in a sane way – thus creating the conditions for shitty band-aids like cryptocurrencies or venmos – is largely a matter of choice on part of the legislators and regulatory bodies.

Meanwhile, France and Spain are literally on fire because of climate change. 🔥

I like how slop bros cannot help themselves and make sure their project descriptions mention vibe-coding in every other sentence.

Fantastic way to know what software to avoid.

Also strong 7-year-old-who-just-discovered-plasticine vibes. Everything has to be made with plasticine, the whole house is smeared in plasticine, but the adults in the room have to pretend this is great (while being careful to remove plasticine cutlery from the dishwasher) – otherwise the kid throws a tantrum.
