Is Telegram really an encrypted messaging app?
This blog is reserved for more serious things, and ordinarily I wouldn’t spend time on questions like the above. But much as I’d like to spend my time writing about exciting topics, som…

TIL about Chersterton's Fence
fs.blog/chestertons-...
- it puts a nice label to an intuition that I find very useful to apply in practice - from refactoring code, through process engineering. Understand first why the mess exists, in that form, before attempting to clean it up and revolutionize.

Chesterton’s Fence: A Lesson in Thinking
A core component of making great decisions is understanding previous decisions. If we don’t understand how we got “here,” we run the risk of making things much worse.

I don't often post about my work but

is actually super cool thing my team is doing. These short term redteams focused on just stealing our passwords were always amazing to highlight how severely broken complex systems are. The internal writeups are so, so fun!

Blog: The Great Google Password Heist: 15 years of hacking passwords to test our security (and build team culture!)

There's no such thing as a "9.2" or "9.8" vulnerability. There's more science in Pitchfork's 0.0-10.0 album rating scale than in CVSS. I am completely serious. Pitchfork reviewers actually put their reviews in context with previous reviews by the artist. That's how bad CVSS is: worse than Pitchfork.

Custom lists are super cool! I enjoy reading social posts, but want to make sure I never miss a quality writeup or technique. To achieve this, I'm building a 'high signal web security' list of topic-focused accounts, which you can pin next to 'Following' if you want :)
