I implemented it quite quickly I use SimHash for now but I need to refactor and possibly replace…

Wow. Wasn’t expecting to see this here… I am the author…

You can still exploit a system and easily prove it via simply popping a shell or calc.exe or updating a database with a new entry, etc… They didn’t have to let it loose on the netw…

Security Researcher here. While you’re correct that air gaps aren’t a totally secure mechanism to rely on, they sure as hell can raise the bar for realistic exploitation. You prett…

I am at a similar salary. I live in Kendal Square; nearly on MIt campus for convenience and due to the fact I relocated to Cambridge from PA when I took my research pos at MIT lab.…

Hello Joseph. I am awesome Joseph. I am at MIT LL. Can’t wait to check this out a bit deeper.

A few things here. 1. Use a proper Markdown parser. The grammar is easy to define EBNF style most implementations I see now days use some recursive descent parser, etc… Regex imple…

Sort of hard to do because AI it shoved down your throat in one form or another virtually everywhere you go. I also think a lot of us Hackers are mourning the fact we spent many ye…

Over reliance on LLMs is going to become such a disaster in a way no one would have thought possible. Not sure exactly what, who, when, or where.. Just that having your entire prod…

Which one was yours???

That’s what I really gets me. These folks who are “so rich from said technology” always need you to buy their course for $5,000… Likes buddy if you were bringing in so much money y…

That’s all it came down to with me.. FreeBSD doing WiFi circa 2002 was a remote dream. Shit even Linux you had to use ndiswrapper and it still prob wouldn’t work

I’m 37 and have coded my entire life. I even got to pull the drop out of college and do star up and make money type thing before I took my current position.. I have to say AI has s…

I am not a graduate but Apple has reached out to me twice in the past month. Many others too so I wouldn’t say it’s absolutely dead but it’s tightened a bit.

No better way to learn System32 folder was essential is Windows than by destroying your family computer by removing it.

Vulnerability Researcher here… Unless your target has a security bounty process or reward; leave them alone. You don’t pentest a company without a contract that specified what you …

Python and PyTorch all call out to C libraries… I don’t get what he means by “proving LLMs can run without Python and PyTorch” at all. Seems like they don’t understand basic fundam…

All because this dude is the ultimate judge for all that is good and worth doing somehow..

Oh.. So you start doing something new and you're top 10% without practicing or being bad at it first? I'd love to test that to see if it's the case... Your logic is "You're not the…

Obviously familiar with Fabrice Bellard and his technical contributions but it seems like he is a pretty private person and he keeps to himself. I don't really know much about him …

As someone who does it for a living the challenge can be in both. However this article is asking its agents to do CTF like challenges which I am sure the respective LLMs have seen …

Yea, this entire repo/article seems super misleading to me. Not to mention asking it to generate API for OOB R/W primitives is essentially asking it to regurgitate what exists on t…

Most modern kill chains involve chaining together that many bugs... I know because it's my job and its become demoralizing.

Vulnerability Researcher/Reverse Eng here... Aspects about it generating an API for read/write primitives are simply it regurgitating tons of APIs that exist already. Its still coo…

It is pretty and it can do pretty much exactly what Rust enums do if they learned basic idiomatic Go.. Rust is a cult at this point honestly.
