Didn’t want to shill my stuff during the chaos or in my Security Notices, but now things have calmed down (I hope!):

I do Laravel & PHP Security Audits & Pentests. If PHP2Shell has you wondering what’s hiding in your own apps, I can help.

Uh-oh. You promoted voting. Time for all the dbzer0 and .ml chodes to show up and tell you why you shouldn’t do that.

Which, of course, is all the more reason to vote. If you do the opposite of anything anyone from either of those instances say, you are almost assuredly doing the right thing.

If you sit on the fence as the fence burns down, you’ll end up in the dirt with everyone else.

Katie called me today on the way home from dinner.

Well no, she called my wife, but I answered and the three of us chatted for a bit.

Apparently she's been doing interviews (with The Times, The Post, CNN, and some other outlets) all day.

She told me about the case she's been working outside that, which sounds difficult as all hell.

This is how it went with my autistic toddler. He’s always known his brother as his brother, but he didn’t start transitioning until 2 months ago. We just told him big brother is a boy on the inside and soon he’ll match on the outside. Kid went “oh, ok” and went back to playing. It’s not complicated, it’s their hatred that makes it complicated for them.

I don't like PHP. I used to work as a professional PHP programmer, and after that, I *really* don't like PHP.

But - even if this thought is deeply disconcerting - PHP is critical infrastructure at this point. And the people who just worked their arses off to fix vulnerabilities in PHP systems are deserving of respect and solidarity, even if you think the PHP language is bad.

(Many of those people also don't like PHP).

Absolutely! You’re part of “the system” due to the fact that you exist…
