  5. Many academic papers could be half as long—or less. But we write them to be self-contained and accessible to a broad scholarly audience, so we repeat background, define well-known terms, pad the argument just to be safe. And then publishers restrict the number of footnotes.

    In an ideal world, a paper would be short, dense, even cryptic—and followed by a massive apparatus of notes explaining context, terminology, prior work, alternatives. Instead, we do the opposite: long main text, minimal notes

  10. I got a this thing in the mail today.

    I am teaching an SSCP bootcamp starting this Wednesday. So I passed the exam a while ago. Still nice to get the whole welcome kit.

  15. This morning, I went to a testing center and got a piece of paper that says this:
    "Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that you have provisionally passed the Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP®) examination."

    I am teaching a 2-week bootcamp course this December on the (ISC)2 SSCP exam, so it seemed like a smart move to actually take the exam :flan_hurrah:​

    Hopefully in a few months I'll have something much better than my own SSCP credential: students who also have their SSCP credential.
