Getting lots of SMS phishing attempts lately. Getting one every day or so. Anyone know if there's been a noticable uptick in the UK generally or has my number somehow got on a list? #smishing #phishing #infosec

I feed the cats an hour early one day and the next day it's completely unreasonable to return it to the normal time. It's now half an hour later and they are LITERALLY DYING of starvation.

I can always tell my company's fake phishing test emails because they appear to come from an external source but they don't have the automatically added "This email is from an external source" text

Paradoxically, a good mental state leads me to complain about things more, expressing the negatives In a positive state you feel empowered to make changes- to fix these things If I'm down I feel like nothing can be fixed, or I don't have the power, so don't bother complaining

First Friday in a long time that I feel pretty good at the end of a work week. I had almost forgot what it feels like!

When I'm reading code I mentally read/subvocalise || and && as "or or" and "and and" Anyone else?

Anyone using gmail been receiving email into their inbox today that would normally get filtered into promotions/updates? Getting inbox notifications for things I definitely don't care about and this is new and annoying

Genius. They wrote a script to make a PDF look like it's printed, signed, and then scanned again. Because digital signatures are still not accepted in many places while a signed and scanned printout is. This is hacking bureaucracy. I love it! gitlab.com/edouardklein/f…

I was coding in my dream last night and now I'm annoyed that I have to do all that code again in real life

Trying to decide if I should take this opportunity to see what I look like with a beard. I get super irritable and uncharacteristically angry after about 3 days of not shaving, so I've never actually let it grow out.

Thumbs are weird, joints are not where I expect them to be. Like what I thought was the knuckle of the thumb is actually the middle joint. I only just realised this. Self isolation is wild
