For my blog and newsletter, I wrote about why there have been so many data breaches and security lapses this year *alone* involving the mass-exposure of people's driver's licenses and passports — including new details about an exposure of 223,000 government-issued IDs as recently as this week.

@G33KatWork constraints induce creativity: finishing the project without *that* part is almost like writing a haiku :)

@d_olex @whitequark oh I think I misunderstood! I'm concerned about how NDAs the Red Team is usually subject to (the target, data from their systems, etc) can be compatible with these third party services.

@d_olex @whitequark Honest question: how is the NDA compatible with SaaS models?

@lcamtuf Thank you for "nerd lore", I add it to my dictionary!

Dear designers: scrollbars are useful and exist for a reason. Don't hide them, please.

See that the procedures adopted are as inconvenient as possible for the management, involving the presence of a large number of employees at each presentation, entailing more than one meeting for each grievance, bringing up problems which are largely imaginary, and so on.

Every now and then, someone shares a hilarious Kagi result. Now they'll have a place in the Kagi Bloopers hall of fame:

We've integrated with Surveillance Watch, an interactive database that documents surveillance and spyware entities.

When searching for an entity that appears on their list, we'll display a banner on its domain to alert you that it's a known surveillance tech provider.

Not just natural language processing. It’s also the largest public archive of spreadsheets. When I was at Microsoft, a bunch of projects used it. For example, when the TypeScript version of the Excel calc engine wanted to see how good their coverage was, they tried to see how many of the Enron sheets they could correctly calculate (as in, give the same answers as desktop Excel, not give the answer without all of the fraud).

It sometimes surprises me to learn that there are people who don't know that one of the first really big datasets used to train and evaluate computer language and social models was (and still is) a bunch of internal emails from Enron.

Yes, that Enron. Collected as part of the investigation into its collapse.
