@Lexus I'm currently shopping for a car, and the NX is my top choice. However, the poor feedback on your app is making me reconsider. If you're going to advertise and charge for connected experiences, you'd best ensure they're at Lexus quality.

We asked around our team of researchers, and we found what might be the largest, most complex regex anyone has ever seen: 272,816 UTF-8 characters in length, created for our Data Loss Prevention product.

A few weeks ago, we saw a challenge posted online where a technical user was looking for the most elaborate, complex Regular Expression (eg., regex) that someone uses on a regular basis for a practical reason.

I’m running for U.S. Senate because Texans deserve a Senator whose team is Texas. Ted Cruz only cares about himself.

Overall we kept the train from derailing and killing everyone on board, but understand this train aka America is still in grave danger.

That means enjoy the moment but realize we still have a ton of work to do.

It's entirely possible that Elon will save Twitter as a company *and* accelerate the decline of society.

@jdeutsch The biggest factors are policies and enforcement by the server's moderators. There do seem to be discovery and performance advantages of being on a server with people you want to follow, but it's all federated.

The irony is that people would probably pay for a BETTER Twitter (better moderated, more features, etc.), but Elon's goal seems to be a WORSE Twitter (less moderated, half the staff to produce new innovation, etc.) that also suddenly costs a bunch money.

Emotet is back!

Reporting from @cryptolaemus1 suggests they’re distributing XLS files with macros, and zipped XLS files. 1/7

Offering kids the choice of candy or a potato this year because I saw a meme about it. And honestly it’s super funny to see their reactions.
