I am pretty sure this must have been done before, but I am amused with myself at the moment with my first prompt using Copilot ...

What if security was an Objective and ... * finding issues was a KR? * remedying issues was a KR? * measuring prevention of security events was a KR? * boredom of the Blue team was a KR? Today it seems to me that buying tools and making lists are the object. Too tactical.

When I first learned of Chef and DevOps Adam Jacob (thx sir) helped me realized the real problem I was reasoning about was orchestration. Why aren't we asking, "Do we need this application to be this hard to orchestrate?" Why aren't we working to reduce complexity debt?

I've been trying to parse what `%s/twitter/x/g` actually means. I've learned it means my notifications don't seem to work well any more. Do I need to pay for those if I want to be x-ing?

Why aren’t we talking about tools that improve “ilities” by taking action? Many report flaws: PMD, Rust’s Clippy & Checkov, but very few are as ruthless as Python’s Black. open.substack.com/pub/behemphi/p…

Is X for xit-ing? Certainly seems X no longer marks the spot? At what value of X does X become valuable again? Okay, enough punning today. Cheers.

Remember the telephone? Remember missing a call? Remember thinking, "if it's important they'll call back." Remember walking out of the house to an uninterrupted hours of fun, docs, accomplishment? Maybe phones these days aren't smart enough.

Hey Paramount+ Help why can I not watch Milan v. Torino? I get a non-descriptive error on my TV and I get a VPN message on my computer. I do not use VPN. I am missing the opening game and I am very bummed.
