Ate a snack cake thing I got yesterday, and then discovered a warning about lead and cadmium on the back of the package agony-deep

If you like Unixy editors, highly recommend also looking into acme

Russ Cox describes it in this video as more like an "integrating development environment" as in it works with your surrounding operating system rather than an "integrated development environment"

Doesn't shine as much on Unix as in Plan 9 though. Also no linter or formatter built into or distributed with acme but you probably could get your language's usual tools to work pretty well with it

Ed is the standard text editor.

He rented all types of servers around the country in the cloud and designed a denial of service (DoS) attack

doug-clap What a uniquely skilled individual!

His feat did not go unnoticed. Over the next year he had meetings with officials from the United States Cyber Command, the branch of the armed forces dedicated to this field. He also met with officers from the Marines, the Space Operations Command and intelligence (NSA). Cáceres shared with them the keys to his successful operation and told them that, in his opinion, similar operations could be carried out with small commandos of two to four hackers. That would give them agility, autonomy and the ability to react.

Me, a cyber-commando, dressing up in full tactical gear, ready for anything, for the trip from my gaming chair to my refrigerator to get beer while I watch my rented Azure servers send spam to a small country's routers

He tried, but failed. “To do anything you need authorization, which takes six months to get. And when you get it, what you wanted to do no longer works. That is the reality here in the U.S.: we have very, very good people working on our cyber defense, but they are hogtied. They can’t do anything, even though I know we have the resources to do a lot.”

Smh our bureaucratic government won't approve my request to start a war with the DPRK from my couch

If he did this to any other small nation, especially a US-aligned one, he would be charged with a serious crime. The US can't openly do electronic warfare but they can stand by and watch this clown do what basically amounts to cyber-terrorism, a least for a little while

Anyway, now that he doxxed himself I hope the DPRK actually gives him something to fear lol

Also

And ever since he took down the internet in North Korea, he has also been approached by the National Security Agency (NSA). Everyone wanted to know how he did it.

Lmao

This is peak journalism, they obviously took him at his word
