Thanks for the feedback - I was thinking about it myself, I'm 34 and do wear glasses and felt I might be a bit pushing with the terminal style. Thanks for confirming!
The BSides events are awesome. Going through all of the video data, pretty much week in and week out by now, it is astonishing how diverse and down-to-earth the talks are. The sheer amount of different views and techniques on just about anything is mind-boggling. I hope this project can shed some light on the lesser-known tactics presented at smaller events around the world.
(E) + (A) is the spicy combo: most of these talks are the only public record of their technique, and within a week they're all in every frontier LLM's training set. Great or terrifying depending on whether you sit red or blue. Anyway great job!
Thanks. Yeah, I was thinking at one point, "Am I just providing bots training data?" but then I figured - I'm helping people to find these talks in a meaningful way, and I'm helping the events get some more views. Data ending up in LLM training is just a side effect that would happen one way or the other.
The idea is nice, but the text is hard to read, just a recommendation! And I'm not wearing any glasses, I'm only 32.

This is actually super useful! I find much more useful current and tactical information at BSides than I do at RSA/BlackHat.

Nice, that's really handy.
