  1. Weekly output: DDoS attacks, Ed Zitron at Ai4, Delta WiFi spoofing, security perspectives from Black Hat’s NOC, AT&T’s Turbo Live

    Having zero in-person work events on my calendar this week was a real treat after spending the prior week in Vegas bouncing between two conferences. That downtime also allowed me to finish two stories from those events.

    8/11/2026: Major DDoS Attacks Are Booming, But US No Longer the Most Targeted Country, PCMag

    I wrote up a Cloudflare report on trends in distributed denial-of-service attacks and closed it out with a reminder of how efforts to set security standards for the connected gadgets that are often enlisted into DDoS botnets continue to lag.

    8/11/2026: This Tech Expert Thinks It’s ‘Time to Call Bullshit on the AI Industry’, PCMag

    The easier thing to do with Ed Zitron’s talk at Ai4 would have been to write a scaffold of a post around his most memorable lines, but I wanted to provide some context for the numbers he threw out. The required research started feeling like an exercise in yak shaving, in part because the AI data-center news cycle did not stop.

    8/12/2026: Delta Passenger Spoofs Wi-Fi in the Air (Pro Tip: Don’t Do This), PCMag

    After seeing so many other places jump on this story, I decided I should do my part–and make sure that my own post, unlike so many others, would feature a photo of 757 in Delta colors instead of some other plane in DL’s fleet.

    8/14/2026: At Black Hat, AI is helping security pros find threats—and creating new ones, Fast Company

    This was a Black Hat meeting request that I enthusiastically obliged, because Black Hat network admins don’t hold back when they’re talking about unwise behavior they’ve seen on the conference’s WiFi. James Pope (outside this information-security conference, senior director of security product research at Corelight) had some forceful advice for people using AI to vibe-code their own software: “Stop having janky apps.”

    8/15/2026: At Rush Concert, AT&T’s Turbo Live Rocked, With Dazzling Download Speeds, PCMag

    This story ran almost a month after the concert in question; first I had to field various bits of breaking news, then I had to tell my AT&T PR contact to set aside my questions about this data-only power-up and instead answer a query about a round of retroactive rate hikes, then Ai4 and Black Hat monopolized my journalistic bandwidth. I may or may not have also needed additional time to see how many Rush song-title references I could sneak into this post.

  2. Sorry Zed Industries, but #Delta outside teams it's pretty much useless at best, #VibeCoding at worst.

    I would rather have it as a Zed Plugin I can use to work alongside it, rather than switching between both.

    Plus, that shit needs onboarding. Took a while to wrap my head around.

  3. @briankrebs Delta flight hit by hackers after DEFCON Las Vegas, Crew says they jammed the in-flight Wi-Fi.

    The plane was never at risk. Passenger Wi-Fi was shut off when a fake access point was broadcast aboard the plane.

  4. Delta’s GoCool-150 Goes Big To Enable 150kW Liquid-To-Air Cooling for ASRock Rack’s NVIDIA VR NVL72

    How do you cool a giant rack of AI hardware? With an even bigger heat exchanger. Delta's GoCool-150 is a liquid-to-air CDU that is designed to dissipate 150kW of heat from NVL72 and other high-density liquid cooled racks#ASRockRack #Computex2026 #Delta #LiquidCooling #NVL72

  5. #Delta should just not give me a drink voucher if they are not gonna tell their flight attendants they exist. I don’t want to argue with a flight attendant during their busy snack service about your own programs 🙄

  6. Всё что нужно знать про DuckLake

    Когда вышел DuckDB 1.0, я написал статью Всё что нужно знать про DuckDB . Теперь вышел DuckLake v1.0 — LakeHouse-формат из той же экосистемы. Это отличный повод разобраться, как он устроен и как его можно использовать в production-сценариях. В этой статье разберём, какую проблему решает DuckLake, чем его архитектура отличается от Apache Iceberg и как поднять DuckLake локально или в окружении, приближённом к production: PostgreSQL для каталога метаданных и S3/MinIO для файлов данных.
