@Viss it’s currently low 30s in Vegas.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@winterknight1337 wtf

[winterknight1337@infosec.exchange]

@Viss idk man. I didn’t pack a jacket, and I’ve been totally fine with a hoodie.

[winterknight1337@infosec.exchange]

@Viss I’m also currently drunk off my ass.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@winterknight1337 which hotel?

[winterknight1337@infosec.exchange]

@Viss jw Marriott in Summerlin. Here for a work trip. We went out tonight after a hackathon.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@winterknight1337 oh ok, i was gonna send you to holsteins for a shake but they closed at 11:30, heh. enjoy the fun!

[winterknight1337@infosec.exchange]

@Viss ah dang. Maybe next time. We have some folks here who’ve never been to Vegas before and I tried to bring them to the strip to check it out. Then someone set up a reservation at the tiki bar and there I went!

[viss@mastodon.social]

@winterknight1337 score!

[horse@infosec.exchange]

[cobweb@corteximplant.com]

@Viss y’all need any ops, devops, sysadmin or other help, or know someone who’s looking to hire?

[viss@mastodon.social]

@cobweb its possible! at present there is nothing on the radar, but nearly every customer we speak with "needs SOMEONE", so its good to know folks who need the work.

conversely, if you know shops that could use some security architecture, consulting, advisory, vciso type work, definitely let me know! every engagement we do results in 'remediation guidance', which in many cases involves pointing out how to build a soc or a blueteam

[cobweb@corteximplant.com]

@Viss thanks brotha, it’s a jungle out there

[viss@mastodon.social]

@cobweb yes it is

@Viss Ah, to be fair, asking for features isn't as easy here either, note that these two requests are from 2020 and 2018, respectively.

*But*, to be also fair, implementing many useful features requires careful coordination of multiple platforms to ensure things work properly. And there is very little money to fund such work.

So, all in all, I do agree with your sentiment, I certainly feel like we have a lot more power to affect change here, for sure!

[ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org]

@Viss Yep... I learned this the hard way. You can't convince people with logical reasoning when their decision was made via emotions.

[polyonomous1@infosec.exchange]

@Viss couldnt agree with you more. You can't tell someone something they can't hear

[viss@mastodon.social]

@ai6yr or if theyre brainwashed, or part of a cult, etc yep
