    Eric drills a door and Jon disagrees and commits to an electrical fix. Aisuru makes the Cloudflare Top 10. The Louvre had a bad week, while furniture trucks had a good one. Gemini used to write malware. Rivers in Alaska are orange.

    Nov 1 2025

    Remote Eric Assist and Jon enjoys ... hockey(??). More prompt injections, the most damaging UK cyber event (so far), and residential proxy use for fun and training data. Will Agentic AI bring back micropayments, and how is Costco's pumpkin pie so good?

    Oct 18 2025

    Family weekends for Eric and Jon. A new side channel for pixel sniffing on Android, malware abusing github + steganography for configuration, and Apple doubles many of its security bounties. For fun, long live(d) the naked mole rat, and warp drives move from the irrational (negative energy ftw!) to the theoretically possible.

    Oct 11 2025

    This was almost "The Quiet Episode" after some audio challenges, amazing what technology can hide... Eric gets back in town just in time to leave town. Jon goes to a bookstore. The UK is still trying to get Apple to create a backdoor. OpenAI talked about malicious use of AI. ShinyHunters are back. Pristine Stars are a thing and Powell's City of Books is cool.

    Eric is traveling and Jon is repairing. Coordinated arrests of scammers across Africa, the world's first malicious MCP server (is super simple), the release of the Sony CD player 43 years ago, and CRISPR modified yeast to create pollen substitute for the bees.

    Sep 25 2025

    This past weekend, Eric was forgetfully productive. Meanwhile, Jon moved a child into the dorms and battled some radiator problems. On other fronts, AI agents got duped, and self-replicating worms made their way through NPM. Good news: Entra ID tenants dodged a major security event. For a bit of nostalgia, Eric whipped up some lemon bars, and Jon chowed down on pizza.

    Sep 20 2025

    Eric paints and Jon does something I'm sure. Void proxy tackles the complexity of breaking MFA, and Bitcoin ATMs for Scammers. How about a bit of neuromodulation on Pythagorean Triple Square Day.
