I just want to say that #BSidesSeattle2026 was my first #BSides ever and I absolutely loved it! There were some really great talks, I met some amazing people and I had a genuinely great, entertaining and educating time! Thanks to all the hard work that goes into making the conference a success!

An aerial, high-angle view of the Seattle skyline on a sunny morning, with a thick layer of white fog rolling through the city streets. In the center, the historic Smith Tower rises above the mist, while the Dexter Horton Building is visible in the foreground. A bright sun with a prominent lens flare shines from the upper left, casting a warm glow over the scene. In the far distance, the snow-capped peak of Mount Rainier sits clearly above the horizon under a crisp blue sky.
Despite the fog, the mountain 🏔️ is out today!

Biden is Schreoedinger's President. Both a cunning & vengeful weaponizer of the govt and a sleepy, dementia-addled fool who outsourced his authority to aides.
I guess it depends who opens the box which he was ?
Barbara Rose Johns was 16 when she led a walkout at her high school, credited with helping end school segregation. Her statue replaces Robert E. Lee's, which was removed in 2020.
Taking the #linklightrail from @soundtransit@bird.makeup's new #KentSeMoinesStation has been a breeze.
This week is going to be surreal. On Friday, I will log off of from @mapbox.com for the last time.
I will absolutely miss all of the people that I have grown to call friends and colleagues over the past 3 years.
Soon I will start my new role at @readai.bsky.social and I'm super excited!

Scientific study proves that adults are indeed allowed to have fun. Media outlets too shocked to comment!
Pass it on!
I see nothing bad here
This is a must, unless you REALLY love that sexy Cheetos dust 😉
Ever wake up, finding yourself waxing for #nostalgia?
Take a look at #IMG_0001!
It's a look back at the magic of early #YouTube, a random assortment of pre-algorithm videos when all it took to post was a smartphone and a "Share to YouTube" button.

What's your favorite #edc accessory?

I walked away from #DEFCON33 with #covid...
Just before this picture was taken, he asked "Are you sure this is not upside down?"
An overhead shot of a custom electronic badge with glowing green letter tiles spelling out "GOODBYE DEF CON" across the top and bottom. In the center, a small screen also displays "GOODBYE DEF CON". To the left, another smaller badge shows "irate Software" and a red digital readout of "46.6" with "Ego Meter" and "Ban Counter" labels. Various electronic components and circuit board traces are visible, along with a metallic, multi-layered "HUMAN" DEF CON badge on the right.
Thanks for the #memories @defcon.bsky.social!!

Selfie of a man in front of an enormous, brightly lit digital sign for DEF CON 32, featuring a vibrant, techy design.
And with that, another #DEFC0N is in the past! This is always so much fun!
Goodbye #DEFCON32
Yeah DEFCON didn't get a room block with them this year. And they weren't just checking DEFCON booked rooms last year. I figured they probably wouldn't repeat the same mistake again, it caused a lot of negative press even outside of the hacker community.
I refuse to patronize them again, bad blood
Were they searching rooms this year or did they learn their lesson?
A selfie shows two smiling men at what appears to be a conference. The man on the left has a beard, wears glasses, and a gray t-shirt with an orange design. He has several lanyards around his neck. The man on the right also wears glasses and a black t-shirt with a green and black graphic design. He has a red "GOON" badge hanging from a black lanyard around his neck. Both men are looking at the camera. The background is slightly blurred but suggests a large indoor space with other people.
Getting to meet @thedarktangent.bsky.social in person was definitely a highlight of #DEFCON33!
Thank you for being nice enough to take a quick selfie with me!
Can't wait for the #RoadToDEFCON34
