Gin connoisseur. Rodent parent. Some dipshit from Chicago. Now an immigrant in Melbourne.

I post *very serious* things about infosec. Thoughts are entirely my own.

All my opinions are that of my employer but they don't know it yet & I am not telling you were I work. Apropos: If you need some idiot to kick computers for purposes of making them secure hmu, this job fucking sucks (vulnerability management, automation/engineering for your soc/isrt, ...).

PFP by a lizard that I am pretty sure transitioned at some point but I kinda lost contact with around the same time so I might only know their deadname & at this point it's too awkward to seek them out & ask. So instead I am going to credit them by their last discord handle I am aware of: fuck, md

I run a tiny security consulting company, make hotsauce, watch cartoons and figured out how to weaponize home assistant. I found 118 dollars of btc in my garage.

I am Director of System Architecture at SCI Semiconductor and a Visiting Researcher at the University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory. I remain actively involved in the #CHERI project, where I led the early language / compiler strand of the research, and am the maintainer of the #CHERIoT Platform.

I was on the FreeBSD Core Team for two terms, have been an LLVM developer since 2008, am the author of the GNUstep Objective-C runtime (libobjc2 and associated clang support), and am responsible for libcxxrt and the BSD-licensed device tree compiler.

Sigint and technical rabbit holes turn me on.
