The DDoS attack on X.com this week provided a certain amount of schadenfreude for people less than enamored by Elon Musk. It also rang alarm bells in the cybersecurity community as that style of attack seems to be making a comeback, and not for financial gain. All indications are corporations, and, in particular, government institutions are not ready to repel attacks motivated by political revenge. We talked with Inversion6 CISO Ian Thornton-Trump about how the attack was allowed to happen and what it may mean for the very near future.

Drex analyzes three significant cybersecurity developments: the widespread outage of a major social media platform (formerly Twitter) caused by a DDoS attack claimed by hacker group Dark Storm Team, NIST's recent addition of the "govern function" to their cybersecurity framework that emphasizes optimizing existing tools over acquiring new ones, and concerning reports that OpenAI's latest GPT-4.5 model hallucinates 37% of the time, raising important questions about AI reliability for everyday users.Remember, Stay a Little Paranoid Subscribe: This Week Health Twitter: This Week Health LinkedIn: This Week Health Donate: Alex's Lemonade Stand: Foundation for Childhood Cancer

AI has brought about a DDoS attack on recruitment. What do we do about it? Martyn Redstone talks shifting power dynamics, assessing AI capability, and the cost of inaction.If your technical team faced a DDoS attack — an onslaught of overwhelming traffic designed to disrupt your systems — how would you expect them to respond? Would you expect them to freeze and do nothing? Or take proactive steps to address the vulnerability and reimagine their processes to not only prevent future risks, but to make their processes better?According to Martyn Redstone, founder of PPLBots and co-founder of genAssess, AI tools are doing to recruitment what a DDoS attack does to company websites — overloading them with applications and upending the balance of power between recruiters and candidates. With new AI tools enabling mass-personalised applications submitted at scale, recruitment have to do something differently if they stand any chance of managing candidate volumes while fairly assessing their true capability. And reclaiming control of the recruitment process. In this week's episode of the TA Disruptors podcast, Martyn joins Robert as they discuss:

Hey Strangers, #twitter #trump #elonmusk Elon Musk's “conversation” with former President Donald Trump got off to a rocky start. The interview, which was hosted on X Spaces and scheduled to begin at 8PM ET Monday night, crashed immediately and didn't begin until 42 minutes later. Those who did manage to get into the Space, including several Verge staffers, said it kicked off with lo-fi techno playing from Trump's account for roughly 30 minutes. 18 minutes after the conversation was supposed to begin, Musk claimed that X was the target of a “massive DDOS attack” that had made it impossible for the Space to proceed as planned. ======================================= My other podcast https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw ************************************************** Something Strange https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRjVc2TZqN4&t=4s ************************************************** article links: https://www.theverge.com/2024/8/12/24219121/donald-trump-elon-musk-interview-x-twitter-crashes https://apnews.com/article/trump-harris-vance-walz-election-692747ef0569c28fabc026cc98c4e34d https://www.computing.co.uk/feature/4121256/elon-musks-biggest-fails-twitter-takeover/page/11 ====================================== Today is for push-ups and Programming and I am all done doing push-ups Discord https://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxq TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoder Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe9xwdRW2D7RYwlp6pRGOvQ?sub_confirmation=1 Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangers Twitter https://twitter.com/strangestcoder merch Support CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

ATTACK! This week, V tells Emily about the 2023 DDoS attacks against the OTW, particularly AO3, and how amazing the SysAdmin volunteers defended the servers and got the sites back online. Plus, how fandom reacted to A Very Bad 24 Hours In Fandom History -- because there was ANOTHER dumb/bad event happening over on Tumblr, too! -- and perhaps the greatest fanfiction of all time.

In this episode, Ryan and Shannon discuss a recent article about a massive HTTP DDoS attack that reached a record high of 71 million requests per second. They highlight the increasing sophistication and frequency of DDoS attacks, as well as the potential life-threatening effects of such attacks in the future. They also discuss the role of IoT devices and the need for better education and patching to prevent them from being part of botnets. The conversation touches on the importance of robustness and elasticity in cloud-based solutions and the potential impact of quantum computing.

Welcome to a new episode of Discover Daily, the AI-generated podcast curated by Perplexity to satisfy your curiosity about the latest in tech, science, and culture. I'm your host Alex, and in today's episode, we'll explore a range of fascinating topics.Elon Musk's AI company xAI has raised $6 billion in a Series B funding round, with participation from notable investors. This values the company at $18-24 billion and will support bringing initial products to market, building infrastructure, and accelerating R&D. xAI has already launched the Grok chatbot and plans to build a supercomputer to further develop its AI capabilities.The Internet Archive, a nonprofit digital library, was hit by a DDoS attack on May 27, 2024, temporarily disrupting access to its services. After about an hour, service was restored. The motives remain unclear, but the attack was criticized on social media.Recent studies have shown that crows can count using vocalizations, producing specific numbers of caws in response to numerical cues. Their counting abilities resemble those of human toddlers, challenging assumptions about animal cognition and numerical abilities.Finally, biologist John Tower has proposed the concept of "selectively advantageous instability" (SAI), arguing that some instability in biological components is essential for life. SAI allows for genetic diversity and adaptability but also contributes to aging. This new rule of biology could have broad implications for our understanding of life's processes.From Perplexity's Discover feed:Musk's xAI raised $6bhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/Musks-xAI-Raised-bfhUcjhkSHidkYhMcARUbgDDoS attack on Internet Archivehttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/DDoS-Attack-on-feEOYl8wTlaT66qP1Y.QygGPT-4 beats analysts at earnings forecasthttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/GPT4-Beats-Analysts-nVgZu5u1SXi6bcE8pzbR.QCrows count using vocalizationshttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/Crows-Count-Using-fnNa2K5IQWyTO_AH8MXb.QNew rule of instability in biologyhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/New-Rule-of-Px0zUyYXTNuCYnV6En03sgPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.
