@a16z Most Computer Science curricula don't include much science. Some don't have any at all.

Could the projections in these graphs just be a correction, trimming down to scientists?

Winter is almost over! 😥

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

Needs some trans Siberian orchestra or something...

Hacking isn't just for devs! 💻🤖

Tomorrow, @levi_reuss joins us to show how he built SecIntel-AI—an open-source security intel platform—using Claude Code in WSL, no coding background required.

Live demo included!

No @F1 grand prix this weekend, so @gabortoleto85 and I are building an @audif1_ car this morning

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

All the way from Japan to @_kernelcon_ we have @satoki00 laying down knowledge on everything from physical locks to backdoors!

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

Kicking things off with @caseyjohnellis ... Back to "simpler times, and hackers had a moment where Hackers 'gets me'"

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

Soon....

My first thought: file headers and ransomware

Anyone else?

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

@PandaUpgrade @SkySportsF1 That seems to mostly work, for about 48 hours anyway. You don't get all the Sky stuff, but the race lead up, grid walk and race. After that, poof! gone.

This is $178. I need an excuse to buy it.

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

@themattvirus Forgot to paint the inside?

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

@SkySportsF1 How can us US folks do this?

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

@andreTRwi @_kernelcon_ Right by the pool!

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

Sunday - Blizzard conditions, flight delays, Omaha and all secondaries not accepting flights

Friday - record heat

@andreTRwi Maybe we should find a way to do a @_kernelcon_ BBQ....hotel won't let it be in conference space...but where there's a will...

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

@shanewgross @withzombies @SkySportsF1 @F1 @Apple @AppleTV You can get "international" audio on the standard video, in the app, but not on other devices, like my TV. Even then, the video doesn't match so when they cut to the pit or whatever it doesn't make sense. AND you can't get segments like gridwalk, race lead up, etc.

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

How are people watching @SkySportsF1 coverage in the United States when they don't catch @f1 live?

@Apple has exclusive now and
@AppleTV coverage isn't as good

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

@andreTRwi They were!

[Tim Vidas @tvidas]

Almost makes up for the crappy @f1 coverage and the exclusive deal that blocks better coverage. Almost.
