I like reading blogs and wanted to see if I can find a few new ones for my feeds from blaugust.

[disclaimer: this is a DRAFT post, anyone who read my last blaugust post will recognise this, they less edited and less coherent than the others, and in this case not even a full blog post, just the first part] If you have been at any conferences you have…

Its summer (still) which means book reading times for many.

Rule number one when vibe coding is not to take yourself or your code too seriously.

I follow a lot of people on Mastodon and I see lots of toots fly by.

I try using an LLM to write something about information security, a subject I know very well.

Human disclaimer - This post is written 100% by a human and there is zero LLM (ChatGPT, Claude etc, what they like to market as Artificial “Intelligence” but I disagree with that framing and will continue to refer to them as LLMs) contend or editing in it.

This is a follow up to [this](blog.nyman.re/2025/08/2… and this.

Note This is a very old blog draft, all the way from 2019 when you could still download Fortnite on your iPad (which you can again but it’s a bit harder and you need to live in EU).

Today we’re onto something lighter again.

This is a follow up to the previous one where we defined the question.

The world is a big place.

vibecoding feels very productive, but often I’ve noticed it’s just a feeling, I actually know better than the LLM what the problem is, and could fix it faster, but for some reason I get stuck prompting it again and again not sure why Hopefully the psychol…

Security Podcasts I Enjoy In special order, roughly in the order of which I remembered them which says something about how much I listen to them.

These instructions have been tested on a M1 MacBook with podman, your mileage may vary.

At least not on the IPv4 network, but I would not trust the IPv6 network either, and you have not been able to for a long time.

Note: This testing described in this post was done over a year ago.

I thought it was crazy to think about all the 8.2 billion people.
