My first reported feature for @therecord_media is a complicated story about the community and compliance issues I encountered penetration testing mask policies at Hacker Summer Camp
therecord.media/fear-and-covid…
It’s not just an exploration of how well the masking rules were followed or enforced in Vegas, but my own identity as a hacker and how it compels me to use journalism to report on public safety issues—like mass travel and gatherings in a delta variant hotspot.
The Union that reps workers at the conference venues told me 146 members or their immediate families have died and 1,508 have been hospitalized due to COVID-19 since March 1, 2020.

I absolutely adore using my laser cutter to make packaging for my @tindie orders.

Since this may be my most popular tweet so far I thought I would turn this into a mini tutorial so other people can do this.

Since it'll take us (myself and @SecBarbie) a while to do a full proper write up on the #LanyardLife project from last year, here's the TL;DR in what can be easily brain dumped into twitter. #ScotchAndBubbles #LanyardLife
1) This started as an anti-#badgelife project (aptly known as #LanyardLife) as the culture turned to "pay to play" over "do cool shit". Something @ANDnXOR are bringing back this year. Thus, we only gave the lanyards away, eating the cost. There was no way to buy them. #RandomActs
2) The lanyards are 50 pixels (at 60 pixels/meter) APA102s (sfe.io/p14016) powered by a NRF52832 Breakout Board (sfe.io/p13990) that fits inside a 1" white tubular webbing, secured by a "chicago screw", thus only requires power. About $40 USD per unit.

I've been getting a lot of questions from women (and some men!) who are going to defcon for the first time this year. First off, congratulations! It's a really great environment to learn and make friends! Since I've been answering the same qs for many, here's a thread of tips:
I'm heading to #defcon @defcon and @DianaInitiative only this year because I'm finalizing a keynote and working on a super secret thing for Saturday. I don't have the capacity to also go to #BlackHat2018 and #BSidesLV so will sadly be missing those :(
With that said though, @BSidesLV is one of my favs and I've never been to Black hat. I've been to #defcon for 10 years straight. Even missed family reunions to go!
