@CENTCOM Respectfully pointing out a small typo: "Scripps Institute of Oceanography." Not "Scripts Institute."
Mentioning it to help with a correction. The Scripps Institute is part of UCSD, where I went to grad school, which is why it's familiar to me.
My heart goes out to the 2 SEALs.

Well... That's awkward. Mozart died in 1791 (not 1971).

I thought I was really confused with my history... But it turns out that it's on #washingtonpost and I'm not crazy.

So true about DDoS, and Pelosi's visit. DDoS is reversible and at the low end of cyber threats and effects. Mid range is irreversible physical destruction, crossing into kinetic effects. High end is human casualties, which is rare. Wrote and published about this recently.

Very helpful, actually. Just travel throughout the blue, green and yellow.

Avoid the others to not risk being taken for "hostage diplomacy" or other threats.

Spending this hour on an internal work call with best-selling author @DanielPink and to hear about how employees perceive rewards, and how regret can help drive us forward to do better. Loving these insights and ideas based on his research and book publications.

Wonderful to be back in-person at DEF CON cybersecurity conference in Las Vegas. My pics from the night before opening. Then it filled with thousands of cybersecurity professionals and enthusiasts. #DEFCON #cyber

Big change would be surprising...

NSA senior official: "If you dealt with NSA a couple of years ago in cybersecurity [...] we did not have the authorities and the processes to engage in a conversation back."

It's really impt to update your Google Chrome immediately bec there's a new zero-day vulnerability that is in the wild. Go to Chrome --> settings --> safety check -- updates.

@jimsciutto: China and Russia have a "relationship of convenience." Russia is v concerned about China in Arctic. Yet, when both sides' interests overlap, they work together against the US. #AtlanticCouncil #USChinaStrategicCompetition #conference

@mikepillsbury: China catching up w/ US since 1980s bec past US presidents ordered govt agencies to coop w/ China. US Emb Beijing had 50 agencies with 2,300 staff trying to coop to help China. #AtlanticCouncil #strategiccompetition #conference

"China says will freeze out U.S. companies that sell Taiwan arms" ... doesn't make sense bec the usual prime contractors Lockheed and Raytheon that sell to Taiwan dont sell to China (while component manufacturer Honeywell is just a sub, not prime)

Jennings quoted me in this news article:

[Global Taiwan Institute @globaltaiwan]

"... US arms sales to Taiwan have already become routine, over the past year or two. The new way of business means approving/rejecting each Tw arms request on its own merit within about 3 months," @VOANews quoted #GTI Senior Research Fellow @davepeaceful. https://t.co/l6L3T2TcNf
