My teenage son is on the cover of the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics Competition Schedule for Sport Climbing. Just 985 days to go!

There is a first time for everything sora.chatgpt.com/p/s_6915156c...

I just pre-ordered the new revised edition of this book about the Cult of the Dead Cow, and you should too!!!

hey @deviantollam.bsky.social and @alyssam-infosec.com I assume you will like the patches and the message!

I finally gave in and watched the Pluribus pilot. I was extremely skeptical, because the pilot episodes of “Lost” or “Breaking Bad” or “Mr. Robot” were instant classics. “Pluribus” is too. Watch it.

This is fascinating documentary about the backstory. I knew that it had never been performed live, but this definitely changes the story. youtu.be/kXHz4dB1GD8?...

Imagine putting every single thing you have into writing a song, and the very first time perform it live, EVER: This is the reaction you see from your fans: they are weeping, overwhelmed. As are you. Wow. Turn it up. redact dot link slash downstairs redact.link/downstairs

You are not a pessimist or "downer" for struggling w/ hope. Of course trauma survivors struggle w/ hope. We're suspicious of it. We know it can make us vulnerable. We know it can be used against us. But hope, properly understood & leveraged, can also be a powerful recovery tool.

If you are in Mumbai, come say hello to my youngest child Sam. He climbs stuff. Quickly:

You need to read this entire thread. Trust me.

It's no secret I am a huge fan of @jhaddix.bsky.social But this is the very first time I have ever heard mind-blowing story. youtube.com/shorts/XApvd...

True happiness is flying your favorite guy to Los Angeles to see your favorite band perform live. This is my teenage son Sam, and that is Twenty One Pilots.

Live.... right now. John Strand keynote: www.youtube.com/live/DJcSVh9...

Imagine the kindest, most empathetic, generous human being you could ever hope to be. Let’s go become those people. Who’s in?

Large Language Models are not well suited for every task. But helping you understand the meaning of lyrics might quite possibly be one of their most fascinating use cases.

Live. Right now. Absolutely fascinating !!! youtube.com/watch?v=86tjvR…

Have you ever heard someone say that they didn't have enough "spoons" to take on something else? Have you ever wondered where that term originated? You can get the backstory here: redact dot link slash spoons redact.link/spoons

1. My friend @jackrhysider.bsky.social told me SaintCon was absolutely awesome last year. I hear that every year! 2. Sam is in SLC now & could attend too. 3. I'd been meaning to write a crash course on the "AI Basics for Hackers, & Vice Versa." 4. I will be premiering this new talk on Thursday!

You are kind to strangers on the internet and you think you we don’t notice. You are generous and empathetic, but you don’t do it for others, you do it for you. And perhaps you think we don’t notice. We do. Thank you.

If you think you can't win, I need you to know that you are wrong.   If you think that it isn't in you, I want to assure you that it is. If you think you aren’t smart enough or have enough talents, you do. In fact, Whatever it is, you can do it. You can. You will. Go do it.

This person posts observations like this one all the time. Seriously. Look at their timeline. Definitely going to follow.

There are absolutely no words to express how proud I am of this young man, and it's not just because of his 3 Gold Medals or his 5 World Records. I proud of the class and respect he shows to others. Go, Sammy, Go.

I work in & around, several different infosec-adjacent communities, including red teams, blue teams, the IC, DFIR, academic, publishing, and of course, podcasting. And every single group supports encourages of me and my family. Thank you for that. We truly appreciate you.

Huge congratulations to Sam Watson for finishing fifth at the World Championship, second in the overall season, and setting three new world records in 2025. Onward and upward, son!

Here we go! Live right now. A new champion will be decided very quickly.

Sam is competing in the Speed Climbing World Championship from here in Seoul, South Korea, and you can it live on YouTube at this URL: redact.link/final

Just a gentle reminder that if you see me doing or saying something that is hurtful to another person or group, it is totally OK to contact me to let me know. It’s not your duty by any means, but I greatly appreciate it regardless. Thank you.

I have interacted with @nedpyle.com many times over the past decade or so, but to my knowledge, we have never sat down for a meal, or a meeting, or a game of Uno. HOWEVER… I can tell you with nearly 100% certainty that Ned is a good human being. Take it to the bank.

Go get em Samsters!!!! The Speed Climbing World Championship will be live-streamed Thursday night in the USA. We are all so proud of you son!!! #TeamSam2028

You gotta love truth in advertising!!

Same.

Stop what you are doing right now, and go to this link and rewind the livestream to the beginning. Trust me. This is one of @deviantollum best talks ever. And you can watch it right now if you hurry. ncsu.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Page...

This video isn’t real. It was generated by AI, real time. Compare the photo to the video. Here is the fake video: Welcome to the future.

I lost a bit over 150 pounds in around a year, but keeping that weight off is ten times harder than losing it. I publicly post my DEXAScan and Hume data to keep myself accountable for staying physically healthy. (I don’t know how to track mental health yet.)

IYK,YK. (and if you don't know, ask @tib3rius.bsky.social !)

Here is the recording of Team USA's Sam Watson and Zach Hammer breaking the world record for Relay Speed Climbing at the 2025 World Games in China.

Not gonna lie…. I am actually impressed. Redact.link/velo

Sam is getting ready for the Climbing World Championship, coming up in a few weeks in Korea. This is how he spend his day. Redact.link/typical

Sam was disqualified in Poland for being too light on the start pad. It was devastating. 100’s of you texted me and said this isn’t fair! What will he do Ray? 8 days later he won the World Cup in Chamonix France. Just watch: Redact.link/poland

Are you “hacker curious” (or just a hacker!) who you lives within 200 km of Raleigh, North Carolina, AND you have never attended a BSides event in person ? If you are all three, I want to hear from you in this thread. I have something for you.

You can still get tickets to BSidesRDU if you hustle.

One week ago today, my phone blew up with people telling me that was a guy protesting at DEFCON because he wanted to meet me. Spoiler alert: he wasn’t protesting.

Sam is in the finals and will climb right now.

Hi folks. Sam Climbs in 32 minutes in the World Games Speed relay category. Here is the link if you want to watch : live.theworldgames.org/m/GskScf53

In the World Games, the host country China certainly dominated, including a sweep of all medals for the women. Sam won a Silver medal, and will also race in the relay tomorrow night. Looking good there, Samsters!! Congratulations on yet another medal!!

Recovered and caught up..... Sam will now race for GOLD

This is live, right now
