For a more practical version (containing only infohashes that are observed on the dht) there is bitmagnet [1]. No public instances though, you have to self-host

As always, a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.

If hacking an antivirus will gain the attacker complete control over millions of potential targets, than the weakest link in millions of machines is also a bug in that antivirus software. There is a reason many experts recommending against installing anything besides Defender.

In retrospect, Solarwinds seems to have been a relatively weak link, but perhaps no less than Microsoft teams or other common enterprise software that are known to take security lightly.

And of course, less than any IoT device that might be practical to attack en masse.

These will continue to be targeted, and it is silly to say that anyone is "breaking norms".

Because of the halting issue you cannot summarise reality into a set of axioms and rules. Which is the original purpose of mathematics. Therefore you cannot say mathematics is right or true without adding at the end: "this actually could all be wrong".

at the end: maybe not even wrong

I guess I will be the downer dude.

What KK's analysis elides is the entire concept of mental and physical decline. We are working with population distributions here, but generally speaking, there is a non-trivial likelihood that your 60s are going to be less productive per unit hour, than your 50s. And your 70s, vs. 60s. KK speculates what if he gets to 99! Amazing what he could accomplish. Yeah well this 59 yo can still do decent endurance feats. But I find it very hard to stay bent over a floor tiling mosaics, a very deep love of mine. And the management has to manage the bending over the plants in the garden.

Of course though, I am still as mentally sharp as I was at age 28, when the string of cool things started to happen. Or maybe not. I have an arsenal of well maintained skills to keep me productive, but not seeing much new to add to it.
