Another way to find a process masquerading as a #Linux kernel thread is to see if it has file descriptors open (0, 1, 2). If so, it was started from a terminal and is not a kernel thread process: #DFIR #infosec
ls -al /proc/<PID>/fd
Thank you for 1000 followers.
If I get to 1000 followers, I'll tweet out a bonus method for how to find masquerading kernel threads on #Linux.

Last week I sat for an internal interview about my career progression to high level IC engineer, with a focus on how I've never felt I needed to become a manager to gain influence. I thought I would share some of my career advice for aspiring IC "lifers." Thread!

TIL from @q3k and @marcan42: wget saves downloaded file's source URL (and sometimes referrer) in extended attributes.
This includes the cases where the URL has a user/password in it 🙃

I just blogged "Writing system software: code comments". This is an attempt at reasoning about the usefulness of comments and to classify comments in nine distinct classes. Post at antirez.com/news/124. Thanks to @soveran for the feedbacks about the post.

It's too late.., but I share my slide about #HypoPG that I talked at @PostgresOpen. slideshare.net/YuzukoHosoya/…

This chapter on why comments in code is necessary from the book “A Philosophy of Software Design” is pretty spot on.
Quotable hot take - “if users must read the code of a method in order to use it, there is no abstraction: all of the complexity of the method is exposed.”
