- Reposted by Richard JohnsonNEW: Earlier this month, two hackers published their findings in Phrack magazine after earlier breaking into the computer of a North Korean government hacker. Now, in speaking with @lorenzofb.bsky.social, the two hackers explain why they went public — even though their breach was probably illegal.

- So I guess I'm going to be participating in the Solana hackathon with some LLM magic. I could not have predicted this at the beginning of the year.
- News: Murderer was fond of a game where you take the role of an assassin. The game? Among Us. Never mind the cute cartoony aesthetic, this is a training ground for would-be killers! ROFL.

- I need some 2d sprite animations for a project. Dall-e knows what that means but is being stubborn. Anyone know a good resource besides fiverr?
- I also have a couple 3D models that might work (they aren't cute llamas tho), but messing with rigging and creating frames for an animation and then exporting them to a sprite sheet / animated gif also sounds tedious and I'd pay a small amount for that work too
- China announced a ban on exports of Gallium, Germanium, and Antimony - natural resources used in semiconductors, solar cells, lead alloys for military etc. I found myself looking for what that might mean for our industries and found these annual natural resource reports from USGS
- From the reports: Antimony has plenty of supply chain, Belgium and Germany have a 1/3 of Germanium, Gallium is the one that no one produces cuz China makes a ton of cheaply. That’s the one that will have a longer tail to spin up production, but allies do have the resource.
- Am I the only one who gets really annoyed about plagiarism on social media? It’s important to credit your sources no matter the medium.

- I love when cmake just works to build other peoples code, but it always takes an hour to debug when I find one that hasn’t been properly written. It’s almost always me brute forcing my way to build targets on windows. Fortunately my experience in fuzzing has fortified my patience for such things.
