Just in: Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski has agreed to a five-year, $110 million fully guaranteed rookie-scale contract extension, agent Bill Duffy of WME Basketball tells ESPN. The deal includes a mutual option in the fifth year (2031-32) and a trade kicker.

I am quite concerned myself
It's weird how obsessed non programmers are with the state of the programmer job market.

Wait, it was controversial??
"LLMs don't feel or experience anything" should not be a controversial statement.

and so... it seems i cant just laugh at memes at 3am or maybe enjoy a banter between elon and sam or telegram asking grok to stop sending nudes 🥲 a friend sent me the link to Dr @ireteeh 's mentorship pitch on x saying i should try it out.. never done that before.. i really only use this space for news, latest supply chain attacks, the memes, smelly's (@vxunderground) cat pics and malware and all.. didnt take growing on this space as a thing. but then with chicken in my mouth i said why not, joined the space.. waited about 3 hours and right as they were ending, i just thought to make a joke about being here long and not speaking... and then i got handed the mic 😭.. totally unprepared i said anything that came to mind; about how i've been learning cybersecurity with pentesting as my niche for nearly 2 years now, the progress made, some ctf flex and all.. but after, i saw that with just those 2 mins i had to speak i gained over 20 followers just like that. some even messaged me wanting to connect. went back to eat my chicken tho.. then next day i thought (this time eating an🍎) it was time i put myself on here. so, without further ado, Hi, i'm Daniel👋. King. 0x5h4q (typical leet cyber name lol). Pentester. Not "aspiring" (nobody likes that word), just doing the work until the title's undeniable. I learn as I build. The video below has the receipts: HackTheBox (HTB) Currently #2 in Nigeria, top 2% at Cyber Apocalypse 2026, top 6% TryHackMe, 10+ things shipped, and on and on. what actually drives me: security tooling you can genuinely trust and defend. evidence-first, human-in-the-loop. It shows up in what i build. What i've built/building: → Sh4q — a recon control plane built to be scope-enforced and auditable, not just fast → SafeCO — a local explainable monitor for unsafe industrial commands for a simulated water-treatment plant → GDG Cyber Quiz — weekly CTF-style practice for my uni's dev community → ESP32 Marauder — a custom PCB i designed: WiFi/BLE recon, sub-GHz, evil portal, PCAP capture, all in the pocket (this one was fun, considering how much i love to build) → labs, engagements, 24 writeups and counting what this account is gonna be: me building in public. the wins, the broken attempts, the writeups, ANIME, random opinions, the stuff i'm still bad at (currently: mobile pentesting, and i'm learning it out loud). come for the hacking, stay for the process. and the vibe 🙂‍ portfolio → sh4q.lol writeups → 0x5h4q.github.io if reach is what i want, then watching a butt-vs-gun fight between sam and dario isn't gonna cut it 🥲 shinzou wo sasageyo ฅ(^•ﻌ•^ฅ)

Grant Sanderson's keynote speech at HackMIT 2026. "We no longer need to understand to build." "Are you learning in order to build?" "Or are you building in order to learn."

this is so random but why does he look like an f1 driver
Modern chips depend on lithography machines that require complex infra and cost enormous amounts of money. In this handbook, Vahe explains how EUV lithography works, why ASML dominates the market, and where new semiconductor startups are emerging. You’ll learn about the physics, supply chains, and business forces shaping advanced chip manufacturing. freecodecamp.org/news/the-li…

This was my exact thought web devs and thier dependency hell
"Real software is larger than what your brain can comprehend." typescript and npm does that to you tbh :(

The dependency graph required to produce the binaries / hardware for these is immense. Your "total understanding" is only applied to a small part of the entire system. And that's fine! Total understanding of small parts + overall understanding of the entire system is what you want here anyway.
