Eek!<\/p>\n<p>This is why my bedtime is 10PM, I didn&#8217;t get home from the <a href=\"http:\/\/phillylinux.org\">PLUG<\/a> Meeting last night until about 12:30. But I&#8217;d say it was worth the sleep loss. Thank goodness for coffee.<\/p>\n<p>I left work at the normal time, met <lj user=m_c_t> in Conshohocken after getting slightly lost (because I&#8217;m so good at getting lost). I left my car in a business park and <\/lj><lj user=m_c_t> drove us down into the city.<\/p>\n<p>The talk was given by <a href=\"http:\/\/perl.plover.com\/\">Mark Jason Dominus<\/a> on Classic Unix Security Problems (<a href=\"http:\/\/perl.plover.com\/classes\/unixsec\/\">slides here<\/a>). Of the half dozen or so  PLUG meetings I&#8217;ve ever attended this was the best. MJD is a great presenter, I already knew a lot about everything he was talking about (which surprised me, since I thought I was a total security n00b), but he made it very easy to pick up the things I <i>didn&#8217;t<\/i> get before the talk. And he&#8217;s funny, which always adds to a talk. I just wish the talk had been longer %)<\/p>\n<p>After the talk, we all walked over to The Best House, the default &#8220;after PLUG meeting place.&#8221; I got to talk with a few people, met a co-worker of <\/lj><lj user=m_c_t>&#8216;s and we ended up staying until after 11 just chatting with Walt Mankowski (waltman) and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cjfearnley.com\/\">Chris Fernley<\/a>. It was a good night.<\/p>\n<p>By the time I got home Michael was already in bed, Caligula was also sleeping somewhere, I didn&#8217;t bother looking for him, just brushed my teeth and went to bed.<\/lj><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning around 5:30, Caligula meowed in my face.
