How I learned to stop worrying & love K8s | Scientific Computing @ Corteva | Python/C++ in agriscience | President CIALUG | | Puns & GIFs

[adenner @adenner]

Profile refresh and catching up on the work title change!

Now officially Scientific Computing Scientist @ Corteva Agriscience—prototyping Python/C++/K8s tools for big data in agriscience R&D.

Still the same: dry puns, tech riffs, blog deep dives at https://t.co/e938gcldA7, and talks at https://t.co/IFhRDyfVEP.

Say hi if you're into Linux, containers, scientific computing, or classic nerdy GIF reactions. 🚀🌽

@SamaHoole I've heard arguments that Midgley is responsible for the most poisoning and environmental harm of any engineer ever.

@KZarate1081 @caseysgenstore Still better than a Mavericks

[adenner @adenner]

@SciTechNick Yeah they have been trying to upgrade for 20+ years and have had to buy spare parts off ebay to keep things running

I was just looking at the #iowacodecamp tag while at todays @iowacodecamp and found this gem from back in 2012... #balmerpeak https://t.co/RFdpdEXeSj

Des Moines police scanner traffic said there were three people injured in the shooting at the post office, all were taken to the hospital. Suspect was described on the scanner as a black female named Jennifer, and she was taken into custody.

Binance published the postmortem on its $6.34 billion hack.

It started in June.

An engineer searched for an AI coding tool.

Downloaded a tampered Homebrew installer.

Binance caught it. Replaced the laptop. Rotated the credentials.

But the attackers had already learned who worked on the wallet team.

September.

A second engineer gets approached on a real job platform.

By someone posing as a project director.

Live video interview with "HR".

Then a take-home assignment.

Downloaded onto a work laptop.

The assignment swapped pyenv for a malicious copy.

Binance's security tools didn't flag it.

October 20.

The attacker used that machine and Binance's own internal AI tool to reach two more wallet engineers.

One had a container deployment token sitting on his laptop.

October 29.

Container deployed. Signing service reached.

Funds started leaving at 20:05 UTC.

Binance suspended withdrawals.

The money kept leaving.

The attacker had already authorized his own contract on the hot wallet, on-chain.

Halting withdrawals didn't touch it.

Revoking it was harder.

The wallet uses MPC.

No single private key exists to sign the revoke.

So Binance had to design a revoke procedure while the funds were still moving.

The last stolen ETH left almost four hours after the first transfer.

The security model designed so no one person could steal the keys.

Also meant no one person could stop it.

Binance says it recovered about 2.85 billion.

And put aside enough to cover the rest.

The FBI says North Korea did it.

Five months of recruiting, interviewing and waiting.

The most expensive take-home assignment ever submitted.
