@mumblegrepper what got you interested in DirBuster in 2026??

I suffered a moderate data loss in 2022 when tried to export a #Wordpress site with this plugin:

https://github.com/benbalter/wordpress-static-site-exporter/issues/292

Now the issue got an AI fix, introducing a lot of code to handle tricky symlinks.

Taking into account that the author didn't care to look at my issue for 3 years I doubt this fix is properly reviewed so I now trust this plugin even *less*.

When IMS Associates, Inc., couldn't get their hands on an Altair 8800, they decided to make their own! How's that possible? Key technology like the S-100 bus were easy to replicate, leading to a slew of clones, like the IMSAI 8080.

"Bad software is one of the few things in the world you cannot solve with money. Billion dollar airlines have flight search apps that are often inferior to those built by groups of students. Established taxi companies the world over have terrible booking apps. And painful corporate IT systems are usually projects with massive budgets, built over the course of many years.

Whatever the cause of bad software is, it does not seem to be a lack of funding."

I’ve been informed this is an official account and that makes it good news!

Hello #FediHire, I am a laid off malware analyst still looking for work. It's hard out there. I can program in various languages (primarily C++, Python and Rust) and can study non-malware code with just as much ease as complex malware. Enterprise application ready!

Any biters? Please let me know!

The stop using non-deterministic technologies to do tasks requiring deterministic outputs challenge.

Let’s try that.

Just saw this on a post on LinkedIn

I'm pretty sure every healthcare organization I've ever received an SMS from is already using this technology

Claude bros know how to measure performance. They just don't.
