๐Ÿ“– Early birthday present! Just got The Web Application Hackerโ€™s Handbook 2.

As I work towards becoming a penetration tester, Iโ€™m excited to sharpen my web app security skills.

Whatโ€™s the one book or resource thatโ€™s helped you most?

I came from Arch, I use Kali in my lab environment. But itโ€™s mostly everything for my field comes default, so 600+ pentesting tools, privacy focused with anonsurf, Tor and firejail and ready for coding with VScode. Also itโ€™s semi rolling release

In response to your first question, itโ€™s highly unlikely. We all understand the underlying motives this is clearly about the tariffs that have been implemented. That said, itโ€™s still significant news in the tech industry and raises a number of important questions.

NVIDIAโ€™s kicking off Blackwell chip production in Arizona โ€” first time their AI supercomputers are being built in the US.
Looks like theyโ€™re finally moving some serious hardware manufacturing stateside. Could shake up the AI game a bit.

Wasnโ€™t satisfied with my Arch + Hyprland setup yesterday, so Iโ€™ve started ricing it with a nature-inspired Japan themeโ€”clean, calm, minimal ๐ŸŒฟโ›ฉ๏ธ Already feels way better. Anyone else gone for a themed setup lately?
