Okay, I'm just going to throw this out there, but maybe - just maybe - a vendor having the ability to change every one of their kernel drivers in the field at the same time without any approval from IT/end users is a model we need to reconsider... @CrowdStrike.

here are the top 9 things i’ve learned in my first 6 months working as a senior cybersecurity consultant for @CrowdStrike: 1. github is terrifying. parse your own repos for hard coded creds, thank me later 2. great companies still exist, crowdstrike is one of them 3. the hallmark of a great manager is someone who listens to understand, and teams up with you to work to solve the problem you face. not someone who works against you 4. consulting doesn’t have to drain you. a mature, well-run consulting firm provides you the necessary resources (including sufficient staffing) to commit 110% to each of your clients without overworking yourself 5. identity-based attacks are what keep most security practitioners awake at night nowadays 6. i am under-skilled in networking and AD, but that’s ok because i have colleagues who are geniuses in these areas and a solid consulting firm balances out talents/skills. my talents/skills are just as valuable. comparing yourself to everyone around you achieves nothing positive 7. having a job that you genuinely enjoy, working for people and a company that treat you with kindness and respect does wonders for your mental health. i didn’t realize how poor my mental health was due to struggles at my previous job 8. the best consultants are the ones who genuinely care and want to provide actionable, realistic solutions 9. the color changing, dancing dino emoji in slack is elite. you can’t change my mind

After a year getting back to some kind of exercise regime, injuries after injuries and many setbacks, the last four months of discipline and consistency finally yielded a finish for my first marathon. Feeling pretty proud and happy with this!

I wrote this Format dialog back on a rainy Thursday morning at Microsoft in late 1994, I think it was. We were porting the bajillion lines of code from the Windows95 user interface over to NT, and Format was just one of those areas where WindowsNT was different enough from Windows95 that we had to come up with some custom UI. I got out a piece of paper and wrote down all the options and choices you could make with respect to formatting a disk, like filesystem, label, cluster size, compression, encryption, and so on. Then I busted out VC++2.0 and used the Resource Editor to lay out a simple vertical stack of all the choices you had to make, in the approximate order you had to make. It wasn't elegant, but it would do until the elegant UI arrived. That was some 30 years ago, and the dialog is still my temporary one from that Thursday morning, so be careful about checking in "temporary" solutions! I also had to decide how much "cluster slack" would be too much, and that wound up constraining the format size of a FAT volume to 32GB. That limit was also an arbitrary choice that morning, and one that has stuck with us as a permanent side effect. So remember... there are no "temporary" checkins :) Follow me for more random code musings!

@ImLunaHey If people can't maintain your code that ain't you, you're not as experienced as you think.
