I hired some new people a few weeks ago, and I am pretty excited to have a great new crew on board. Samy is also actively recruiting this perl developer from Flint, MI and had him in town for the weekend to see if he was interested in moving to LA. Samy, Giselle, Matt, David and this dude Noah from MI all hung out last night and geeked out while playing guitar hero. We talked mostly about security. I debated that rainbow tables were uninteresting to work on, and Samy explained how he found an undocumented heap-overflow in the authentication code in MySQL 4.1.12. After I got a bit tipsy I went onto silc - nologin and started bantering at old friends.

We talked about projects that we had been working on, and I realized that there is some really interesting non-work (and some work) code that I have developed over the past bit that is quite interesting. Considering that I teach a 3-day course on integrating IP PBX’s I figured I might make some of it release-worthy and begin posting it, better that than put it to waste.

Huzzah!
