I tested having a user and device EAP-TLS wifi profile deployed through Intune today. User worked fine, device worked fine... but device overwrote the user profile, and unassigning it didn't bring back the user profile. Which is suboptimal
@MyNameIsMurray @hoyty @jabbrwcky
So it seems you can't have both user and device wifi profiles for the same SSID (and yes, they had different profile names, that's how I could tell). Both show up as user profiles in `netsh wlan show profile`. The other category is group policy profiles, so only useful for HAADJ.

Kid just asked me whether there was a negative zero.
I knew this day would come but I wasn't quite ready to have The Talk about IEEE 754 quite yet.

Types of open-source libraries
ALT Types of open-source libraries: - Popular library that does what you need - Smaller than popular lib (with way less features) - Faster than popular lib (by like 5%) - Extremely important lib (not updated in last 5 years) - Unimportant lib (that's still a crucial dependency somehow) - "Open-source" with impossibly complex code base - Unfortunately weird licensing - Underrated gem - Half-finished side project - Good luck installing this - Cryptic README (no idea what this library does) - React-everything

It's 2021.
@discord - It's time to introduce an Export function. An export of logs, of channels, of materials. Do it however you want, make it an admin-level option, hell, even make it part of the Nitro level. Regardless - it's way beyond time. Critical discords are being made.

The Government’s failure to include not-for profits in the stimulus package is reckless.
They provide some of the most important services in our community including childcare, disability, community & aged care services.

Calling for feedback - do you see an IPCO or AAT model as a way to address some of issues with the current TOLA Act (for example the current lack of industry / expert involvement in determination of a systemic weakness)? #ITPA #INSLM #TOLA #encryption #cybersecurity #gdpr

I support the #righttoknow campaign but I think it's a mistake to see free speech as only for journalists.
Whistleblowers, scientists and ordinary citizens have important things to say too.
In cryptography/cybersecurity a lot of ordinary communication is forbidden in Aus.
You have a right to know what the governments you elect are doing in your name. But in Australia, people who speak out are penalised and journalism is being criminalised. It needs to change. #RightToKnow #pressfreedom #MEAAmedia yourrighttoknow.com.au
