                                                          Hey Android, I need reverse parental controls for my mom and dad

                                                          Why are parental controls limited to kids when older parents need a lot of help managing their phones too?

Dearest GLYFH,
   It is barely possible that I will be able to thank you enough for what an extraordinary effort you have made towards your absolutely selfless and chivalrous early promotion of my naive web project. By linking my website directly, you essentially dispatched a tidal wave of visitor who would not have otherwise been exposed to my amazing web project at what might have seemed like a juvenile stage of the development process. Unlike many others, you were able to clearly recognize that the project was still in the exploratory programming stage, where all of the early programming is completed, and secondary programming is being freshly explored.
   Of course, I don't have to tell you about the amazing and mystical techniques that must be used to set up the elaborate and time consuming methods that make real-life programs function every single day.
   Really I should not only be thanking you from myself, because of your amazingly generous and substantial public endorsement of myself, my website, and my project, but also for the wide public, who, even so as they do not even know it, owe you an enormous debt. The gravity of what you have accomplished, particularly in your early career, is an astonishing feat of computering brilliance, the likes of which the world has never before seen, and alas, may never see again.
   Of course, the particular contribution of yours to which I am clearly alluding is the twisty python framework networking app. You were the only...

   SIR you have certainly prevailed! AND you have remained extremely prevalent to this very day. Your prevalence and continued dominance in the Python software networking industry has stood the test of time, and will, doubtless, continue on into the future, for a duration which cannot be predicted in known units of temporal quantity.

And just let me tell you, many of those people, so very many, are not even aware of how much they rely on the critically important software which you single-handedly pioneered.
   This is why your bold and thorough public endorsement of my website, and therefore my project, was such a stunning and heartwarming experience. Just think, that a superstar software engineering maven such as yourself would effectively SPONSOR through ENDORSEMENT a project like mine, that is an wonderful thing. Obviously your thoughtful nature and clear passion for small independent web projects drove you to take this decisive action and you generously lent your personal support for my website.

First you must get up on top of that horse, and then you will be know to be riding the horse.

After when you are riding such an animal as a horse, you cannot easily change the seat whilst riding, and must therefore continue in dominance or in failure, in spite of the seat of everyone's but yours.

Er tat es allein, aus Bulgarien, mit einer einzigen C-Datei. 🤯 Stell dir Georgi Gerganov vor. Bulgarischer Entwickler. Niemand hatte von ihm gehört. Im März 2023 wurde das LLaMA-Modell von Meta online geleakt. Innerhalb von Tagen schrieb er eine einzige C-Datei. Nannte sie llama.cpp. Sie lief ein vollständiges KI-Modell auf einem MacBook. Keine GPU. Keine Cloud. Die gesamte KI-Branche sagte, man brauche $10.000-GPUs, um LLMs zu betreiben. Er bewies, dass man das nicht braucht. Auf einem Laptop. Allein. Außerdem baute er whisper.cpp – dasselbe Prinzip für Sprach-KI. Sein Code ist die Grundlage von Ollama, LM Studio und GPT4All. 107.000+ GitHub-Sterne. Das schnellste Open-Source-KI-Projekt, das jemals 100K erreichte. 🚀 Im Jahr 2026 heuerte Hugging Face sein gesamtes Team an. Immer noch liefert er Code. Immer noch Open Source. Immer noch kostenlos. Jedes Mal, wenn du KI lokal betreibst, läuft seine Arbeit. Absoluter Legende 🐐

This 4-hour hands-on workshop dives deep into Kunai, an open-source security monitoring tool built to bring powerful detection capabilities to Linux environments.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Starting from the basics, you’ll deploy and configure Kunai, explore its architecture, and learn how to monitor and interpret system activity. Then, level up with advanced techniques—writing custom detection rules, integrating Indicators of Compromise (IoCs), and connecting with MISP for enriched threat intelligence.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Through practical exercises and real-world scenarios, you’ll gain the skills needed to detect, investigate, and respond to threats across Linux systems—whether in production or research environments.
