Software engineer @GoogleCloud. Passionate: #Reading #ArtificialIntelligence #Cybersecurity. The road goes ever on and on. My precioussss tweets!

@lockdownurlife Okay, but I feel like this is actually genuinely funny? Even if it's a generally creepy sort of message, it at least made me laugh.

I remember when, at Uber, the CTO instructed engineers to stop giving goofy names to services.

People went along (kind of).

Until it was time to rename those new, well-named services in a way that is distinct, not confusing… thus could not use the same name…

@AlyssaM_InfoSec What's the context to this? Twitter suggested it to me but I don't know the background.

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@lockdownurlife If you think about it, the most effective folks probably don't spend a great deal of their time on their social media profile. That's what socialites do.

I'm off to @defcon for the first time in a few years! If you're also going and want to get back in touch, give me a holler.

My therapist once hit me with an analogy in a language I understand:

“Aggressively reduce the things you take on at the same time. You are not a computer processor where your pipeline of instructions execute and never miss a tick. You are a human; you’re not wired to do that”

@hexadecim8 As somebody who is very interested in this field but has very limited experience, what would you recommend as a good way to start out? I'm pretty good with Unix and competent with Assembly, but I don't have direct experience with either of those in a pure security context.

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@lockdownurlife How to track malicious individuals online! (And maybe how to have a sense of style as good as yours)

PotatoFi Blog 🥔: Aliasing MAC Addresses with Wireshark

Transform cryptic, difficult-to-track MAC addresses into friendly, readable AP and client names!

Every time a packet isn't ACK'd, #80211eh sends a L2 retransmission with the SRY flag turned on

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@AlyssaM_InfoSec This is something that I actually understand and agree with. Given how little direct experience I have in the security space, I'm rather proud of myself!

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@rakyll Yeah. Pretty much.

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@nodirt_ I've been asked a question just like this as part of an interview- asking how I'd design a system like Air BnB from the ground up. It was rather frustrating, especially given that I had no previous system design experience...

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@cherthedev This is a terrible idea societally...

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@gabsmashh ...yikes. Ow.

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

This is a very interesting read. https://t.co/Sf2OErSnS6

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@gabsmashh ...but it's not wrong.

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@thecybermentor It's because you're not the administrator

[Patrick Jones @patrickJonesAus]

@ayourtch This is really cool!
