ping00··on Proton is trying to become Google without your data
Appreciate the thoughtful answer despite the downvotes; I didn't consider how bad fraudulent email creation still is -- would CAPTCHA protection have solved this issue? I'm picturing a web GUI for your product, but I see a console offering on your website too.
ping00··on Show HN: Initiative.sh, an in-browser command line for D&D
Just wanted to chime in and say that I think this is a beautiful piece of software: fast, responsive, and intuitive. It's a pleasure to use, and your tutorial did a great job walking me through it. Congratulations!

I've already tossed this into our DnD Discord, and our DM may use it in the next session.

ping00··on Microsoft has detected nation-state activity associated with NOBELIUM
I believe that individual vendors (MSTC, FireEye, Talos, etc.) name threat actors differently. If you're interested, I'd highly recommend this page by CrowdStrike: https://adversary.crowdstrike.com/en-US/

It's very interesting to see how humans naturally tend to craft identities for faceless, nameless adversaries, which I think is very interesting from a social standpoint. Also the artwork in the website above is just plain cool IMO :)

Although the vendors share information quite freely, I think there's hesitation on a vendor mutually adopting another vendor's threat actor name because it implies more substantive research on the latter's part, which is usually a no-no in a field like this. Ofc, I'm sure there are exceptions.

edit: I also wanted to give Thai CERT a shout out and add a link to https://www.thaicert.or.th/downloads/files/Threat_Group_Card... which is less flashy than the CrowdStrike compendium, but well-detailed

ping00··on Too many new papers may mean novel ideas rarely rack up citations
Would you mind sharing the author's name as well please? I'm interested in checking this book out.
