I just made my myself a little less necessary this year.

I open-sourced an AI coaching skill that guides you (as I would do) during a 2-months speaker coaching session.

Works with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any LLM — just load the prompt and start preparing. [1/2] ⬇️

Become a Cybersecurity Supercommunicator How to turn your deep technical expertise and knowledge into clear narrative, and how to deliver a memorable presentation.

from my @blackhatevents.bsky.social session -> trustial.org/blog/become-...

send me talks to dissect. I'll reverse the content design & delivery (not the content itself, that's yours truly).

#infosec #BlackHat #PayloadDelivered

Part 2 dropped. 🧵[1/2]
tl;dr: your slides are not your talk.

skip the template
skip the agenda (no spoilers)
skip the "about me" ego slide
💣 start from the LAST slide: your 280-char core message 😱

then work backward.

Full framework + slides ...

Let's see how much this will cost...

Zotero just beats all bookmarking apps/services on customizability, storage, data control, price. $120/year for unlimited storage, when you save resources (e.g., websites, PDF), you get a local and remote self-contained snapshot on an actual file, and you can full-text search

Without knowing it existed, that’s what I used to iteratively get to that point.

I'm thinking of a good classification system. I prompted GPT 5.2 (w/ deep thinking) with the famous timeline by @xenokovah.bsky.social and a hint of some must-have labels, and it proposed an extension, which I like. Happy to hear any feedback.

Moved to claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 as my local GPU was suffering. Result isn't bad at all. Will have to tweak the prompt to get it to spit out:

- 1 TL;DR topic sentence
- 3 keywords
- 3 top topics

Let's see how qwen2.5:7b-instruct does with this prompt.

Let's cook something for 2026

I’ve had to fight with the ego of the author for the first 20% of the book. I’ve thought about dropping it a few times, but I’m glad I didn’t. The second half of the book is really inspiring.

I’ve been teaching my daughter how to solder and after we’re done with this last week, my wife reported that my daughter had a boost in her math scores.

The stolen calculator is now back among the other assembled soldering kits.

Dedicated to all the folks at the defcon.run club. Next year we should bring defcon.run at @nohatcon.bsky.social

“Dad, at school we’re not talking about actual bugs. We’re talking more about, like, …insects!” 🐜

Humbled to be part of @nohatcon.bsky.social and can’t wait to spend some time in motherland with Italian hackers and friends!

Hey, you guys, look at this. Hey, you guys ever heard of this guy?

Okay it says, "Chester Copperpot: Missing while in pursuit of local legend. Reclusive scavenger claims, 'I have the key to One-eyed Willy'."

Whoa, do you guys realize what we could do?

Have a security talk you think could hit harder?
Drop the link and I’ll dissect the delivery, not the content.

You can drop the best 0-day or present a novel attack vector…
But if the audience doesn’t get it, it didn’t land.

A good talk isn’t just clear—it’s designed.
→ To make people care.
→ To move decisions.
→ To be remembered.

Cybersecurity Needs Supercommunicators The skills cybersecurity needs most? Deep experts who can clearly explain the balance between security risk and business priorities.

Cybersecurity doesn’t just need brilliant minds.
It needs supercommunicators—people who can turn complex ideas into clarity, urgency, and action.

Here’s what I tell the speakers I coach for Black Hat 🧵

Today we’re studying variables with Python. Using containers to hold paper notes with values scribbled on them. Ideally operands should be of a different color, but I ran out of post-its 🙂‍↕️

Highly recommending “Python for Kids” by Jason Briggs.
