Has anyone got experience with using Kimi 2.6 vs 2.7 regarding tool use? My experience is that Kimi 2.6 was rather inconsistent but have not yet had a chance to use 2.7. GLM-5.2 is exceptional with tool use, rarely (ever?) getting it wrong and fumbling. Curious to hear what experience other […]

[A very, very heavy LLM experiment, bordering crazy.] For the past 2 months or so I've been building something that I'm both unable and unwilling to name yet. AI companion would be trivializing it, and calling it a human brain model would over complicate it […] [Original post on swecyb.com]

I LOVE having programmatic access to @kagihq search engine. Being able to choose how I search, when and through what is just... unlocking so many cool and fun things. Thank you for enabling programmatic access to Kagi, for having a pretty decent first version of the API (which so far is working […]

I need to migrate off Hetzner S3 storage which unfortunately is now into their 10th day of "no news regarding our degraded service". So... I need a new provider with European alternatives. Anyone got suggestions for that? #mastoadmin

#greece and #parga is really delivering. :) My first vacation abroad in 5 years. It was overdue for sure.

I'm curious if more people have experienced the Sidekiq issues with the most recent version of the AWS SDK S3? I'm running media storage on Hetzner S3 buckets. And apparently around june 4 they started having issues with their storage. That seems to coincide with my Sidekiq threads running […]

In the span of just a week I was left twice with Sidekiq not doing it's job, building up some serious queues and unprocessed events. I still don't know what caused it, but I suspect that perhaps the DoS bug fixed in Mastodon 4.5.10 was the culprit. Having now updated to version 4.5.11 it was […]

Just came across this article from Fortinet, thought of @gayint and @cR0w https://www.fortinet.com/blog/threat-research/iot-malware-gayfemboy-mirai-based-botnet-campaign Nothing quite like a gayfemboy mirai botnet.

I have begun writing, in earnest, about my experience building a SaaS and about the idea of being an entrepreneur. First article/blog is about the simple act of... starting and not trying for perfect […]

Code gen will get you results fast. But it will also get you much faster towards the inevitable cluster fuck of a codebase that will be unmaintainable. No amount of agents upon agents, principles and harnesses will protect you. Only good old fashioned human thinking. Systematic design […]

The amount of fuckery going on when you put something online is absolutely mindboggling to me. Internet, truly, is a rather hostile place.

Today I somewhat officially unveiled my new company, ELEVATE. It's been brewing for probably the past 10 years, but only recently did all pieces come together into a coherent whole and where I felt... yes, this is actually it. It's a platform for knowledge workers to help them scale and […]

Summer is kind of here. This year inflatable pool, next year a real one. In love this period of the year. Warm, summer feelings yet everything is still ahead. Nothing lost. Love it. Soon kids will be entertained, and I can chill with some coding while listening […] [Original post on swecyb.com]

RE: https://swecyb.com/@orlysec/116602840846043800 Jesus fucking christ... could we at least leave the "current" campaign to just... you know... complete... before starting a new one.

If there's one thing that absolutely sucks on the Linux Desktop, it's the printing experience. Choosing quality, previewing print, removing margins, zooming in on image to fit the paper. It's all an entirely horrible experience and I almost inclined to try and understand where this "printing […]

Have purchased myself a Stream Deck MK2 (scissor keys). Since I'm on Linux I've been using the OpenDeck software. Wanted to use a plugin for my Nanoleaf wall lights, didn't work. Rewrote it in Rust which allegedly is supposed to be the primary way of developing plugins for OpenDeck through the […]

Regarding the Tanstack attack, it's worth mentioning this article from Aikido: https://www.aikido.dev/blog/fake-tanstack-packages-steal-env-files (2026-04-29)

Paying Shiny Hunters to have copied data deleted. It will be most interesting to see if this sets the precedent expected; legitimizing the "business" and resulting in more companies paying leading to the inevitable ... more attacks. I'm on the fence here... companies obviously have already been […]

I'm using an Android app called ScreenZen which is basically helping me curb my lazy use of the phone. You know that situation when you are about to get bored, you grab the phone and suddenly an hour disappears to god knows where. I have now "broken" the app […] [Original post on swecyb.com]

Quite happy with an update for the: https://threat.cstromblad.com/dashboard where the "Threat Actor" details have been significantly updated. This is all derived automatically, no hands on keyboard to generate. Each named actor comes with extracted aliases, and a set of "Archetypes" which is […]

Spring. There's nothing quite like it. The magic of the season. The horror of time speeding up for a few months. The duality of it all. Sunshine and wonderful feelings, never ending rain and depression over a period soon gone. Sweden most certainly have seasons […] [Original post on swecyb.com]

It's this kind of "threat landscape" monitoring I've always wanted. Curated topics, articles delivered to me when they appear and bundle with others talking about the same thing: Things are "finally" starting to come together.

Experimenting with a column based "timeline" like view of articles. Each column is dynamic in what content appears based on a combination of topics and tags extracted from each article. I kinda like this, like Mastodon timelines but for articles 🙂

Spoke with a friend in the US regarding AI and LLMs. He said that in the startup, entrepreneur circles if you're doing anything AI you're assumed to be using a frontier model, there's just no mental alternative. I've gone the other route and even assuming that frontier models will disappear and […]

Tonight I'm gonna try something. I have always felt as if I'm missing a more "content" oriented stream/timeline on my Mastodon ... timelines. For example I would love to have a "cybersecurity -> vulnerabilities" type stream boosting toots related to this topic (and not only based on tags). So […]

Good* morning, everyone. *terms and conditions may apply.

All these protests against Trump, and the current administration, does it help? From an outsider it looks like nothing appears to matter. The judicial system and the rule of law appears to not apply. It would appear as if there's no turning back and things are looking pretty dark. What's it […]

Time for a date night with the wife, kids have been shuttled off to the grand parents. A NIGHT TO TREASURE! 🙂

Alright, I'm really bloody excited about this. I have just published the likely final iteration, of the first version, of my Cybersecurity weekly summary affectionately referred to as the Cyber Sunday. This, I dare say, is pretty fucking awesome. I really am super proud of this. There are TONS […]

Mastodon is pretty awesome and I'm proud to have been a monthly financial supporter for close to 18 months now. These days it's also an important project as it relates to digital resilience and sovereignty because it provides fundamental and critical infrastructural service. I only wish that […]
