You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

Gluttony Section for Search Engines

"Oh, I never posted my gotofail story on here.

Early 2014, someone came to me about a catastrophic vulnerability in Apple's TLS implementation.

I shit you not, they'd overheard someone at a bar drunkenly bragging about how they were going to sell it to a FVEY intelligence agency for six figures."

@bert_hubert Do you know this book?

The parallels it shows with today's populism and our (failing) answers are frightening.

@tomzorz OK so the closest to what I'm looking for is this, where the author dumps buttloads of data to the screen to measure speed - something I've been told as a reason for acceleration before:

IMO dumping this amount of data to your terminal is usually the result of a mistake because you just can't read through the data anyway. This suggests GPU acceleration is a micro-optimization.
