Burned out owner of a fully depreciated Ph.D. in computer science. Born in the US, still there, not proud of it. January 20, 2025 was our catastrophe.

Random InfoSec guy (mostly architecture) screaming at the world. Maybe a bit of running, politics and puns dotted in there too.

Toots set to auto-delete after 30 days (for server space and so stuff doesn't come back to haunt me years later)

Just an old geek. Learned about computers on a CARDIAC (CARDboard Illustrative Aid to Computation). Then the math teacher at HS got an old Navy surplus computer with drum memory. It had a high speed optical paper tape reader. From there it was BASIC, Cobol, FORTRAN, CMS-2Y, Jovial, Ada. Did some Java and C but never got that good. In retirement learning Rust.
