A wild #blog post appears!I discuss a new #research publication: an empirical evaluation of the #OpenBSD -fret-clean flag. We examine the history of the mitigation, measure its costs, and deliberate whether or not it is worth keeping.Worth the read if you like security and/or compilers.https://briancallahan.net/blog/20260811.html#freebsd #netbsd #dragonflybsd #bsd #linux #unix #solaris #illumos #compiler #compilers #llvm #gcc #rop #cybersecurity #cybersec #cyber #security #infosec #informationsecurity

I just built the merge with the branch that enables blog themes, including a few default themes. So, I've enabled the blog for everyone. If you want to test it out... it's live! #littleFedi #Blogging #Blog #OwnYourData

The new #blog is moving forward in steps. I registered the domain in 2024, so looking forward to finally get it out in the public!Can't promise yet how often I will blog this year, but will do my best that every single article is useful and understandable, and to promote the wonders of #BSD.Using an emoji as its initial logo. Hope to find one day a designer to make something unique.Also putting up an #AIpolicy to show that this blog is cared for by a human being ️
