Proud papa/dad/husband. Choral singer. Aspiring linguist. Software builder. Rotarian. Sometimes in Indiana, sometimes on Maui. He/him.

Opinions are mine, not those of any organization I'm associated with.

I boost posts (only after reading any attached link) if worth reading, not necessarily because I agree with it.

And... if you're tempted to use an LLM to write an email to me, just send me the prompt you would use. It'll be short and to the point and convey all of the information.

@Nonya_Bidniss@infosec.exchange I agree. A Democrat who is bad in one area is still better than a Republican who is bad in all areas. I'm in Indiana, and will be voting for Beau Bayh for Secretary of State. He's the one who will run an honest election in 2028. #uspol #indiana

This is an example of the Overton window having moved too far. "it turned out that the ICE agents had been looking for somebody else" Law enforcement should not be killing anybody. It's irrelevant that they were looking for somebody else. If they had killed the person they were looking for, it's just as bad. Everybody deserves due process. Civil rights are for everybody, otherwise none of us are safe. #fascism #democracy #civilrightshttps://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jul/19/ice-immigration-maga

@hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange Every year I try out new languages/tools for Advent of Code. Today is reinforcing the decision, a couple weeks ago, to set up an artisanal dev environment. Only open source tools that can run locally. Just like the old days.

@tmarble@mstdn.io @pluralistic@mamot.fr I pre-ordered The Reverse Centaur's Guide to Life After AI from my local bookstore. I *love* having a vibrant local bookstore: Morgenstern's Books in Bloomington, IN. #books #bookstore #ai #indiana #bloomington

@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange Go to a protest. Build community. Care for each other. Have fun. Community, caring, and fun is the opposite of what the oligarchs want for us. They want us isolated and afraid. Here on Maui, we’ve organized a Justice Choir. Tomorrow is our second protest with singing.

@evacide@hachyderm.io I wrote my representatives. Congress should not give the executive branch the power to shut down nonprofits it doesn't like with no due process. https://act.eff.org/action/tell-congress-not-to-weaponize-the-treasury-department-against-nonprofits

Tell Congress Not To Weaponize The Treasury Department Against Nonprofits

The House of Representatives just passed a dangerous bill that gives broad and easily abused new powers to the executive branch would allow the Secretary of Treasury to strip a U.S. nonprofit of its tax-exempt status. Nonprofits would not have a meaningful opportunity to defend themselves, and could be targeted without disclosing the reasons or evidence for the decision. Even if they are not targeted, the threat alone could chill the activities of some nonprofit organizations. Over 130 civil lib
