A5: It depends on what the source material is like. Usually that means yes, I am striving for symmetry.
HOWEVER
After I made my tassets for Théodred, it was pointed out to me that the originals are NOT symmetrical as I had assumed. The attached photo is the best reference to show this, and it's actually Théoden, but it's the same. The asymmetry is best observed on the curved left and right edges, and how the leather horses do or don't follow the curve. I did not adjust my armor or pattern, nor do I intend to.

I licenziamenti di Microsoft hanno colpito soprattutto i programmatori, poiché l'IA scrive fino al 30% del suo codice.
Per Bloomberg, tra i 2.000 dipendenti licenziati il 40% lavorava nell'ingegneria del software, il che la rende di gran lunga la categoria più numerosa, secondo quanto rilevato da Bloomberg sulla base dei documenti ufficiali. Sono state colpite relativamente poche posizioni di vendita o marketing, ha aggiunto Bloomberg

The conversation would go like this:
Uh, Donald, everybody knows what groceries are. You should stop saying that.
No. I invented it. No one knew about groceries before me. No one was talking about it. Now everyone is talking about it because of me. No one has seen anything like it. I won because of groceries. They were up, but now they're down. Even eggs. Eggs are part of groceries you know. I invented eggs too. Before there were eggs there were only chickens.
But why do we call the store where we buy food a grocery store?
Really? They changed the name of the store because grocery was trending? See, I told you. Groceries are really popular. I made them popular. Before me no one talked about them. I'm going to put tariffs on them. Big tariffs, you'll see. Biggest tariffs ever. We'll be rich!
But won't that make groceries more expensive?
You should be ashamed, saying that. Who do you work for again?
I work for you Donald! White House staff!
Don't talk about groceries anymore. You don't get it. Everyone around here is dumb. Nobody gets it.

In what experts are calling a novel legal outcome, the 22-year-old former administrator of the cybercrime community Breachforums will forfeit nearly $700,000 to settle a civil lawsuit from a health insurance company whose customer data was posted for sale on the forum in 2023. Conor Brian Fitzpatrick, a.k.a. “Pompompurin,” is slated for resentencing next month after pleading guilty to access device fraud and possession of child sexual abuse material (CSAM).
From the story:
"Jill Fertel is a former prosecutor who runs the cyber litigation practice at Cipriani & Werner, the law firm that represented Nonstop Health. Fertel told KrebsOnSecurity this is the first and only case where a cybercriminal or anyone related to the security incident was actually named in civil litigation."
“Civil plaintiffs are not at all likely to see money seized from threat actors involved in the incident to be made available to people impacted by the breach,” Fertel said. “The best we could do was make this money available to the class, but it’s still incumbent on the members of the class who are impacted to make that claim.”

This is may really be just news to me, but today I learned that @dubroy's and @marianoguerra's book "WebAssembly from the Ground Up" has actually been available for a while and the topics look super interesting...
Top level topics (quoting from their website):
- What exactly WebAssembly is, and what makes it unique.
- How to instantiate a WebAssembly module in JavaScript and run its functions.
- The binary module format, and how to hand craft a module from scratch.
- How to create a simple compiler with Ohm.
- The instruction set: numeric instructions, memory access, control flow, etc.
- How to interact with the outside world.
- The WebAssembly security model: what makes it safe?
(Ps. If you're looking to combine this new knowledge and are interested in building hybrid JS/TS/WASM apps, also check out my extensible thi.ng/wasm-api toolchain...)

LACED: Peeling Back PCB Layers With Chemical Etching and a Laser
Once a printed circuit board (PCB) has been assembled it’s rather hard to look inside of it, which can be problematic when you have e.g. a multilayer PCB of an (old) system that you really would like to dissect to take a look at the copper layers and other details that may be hidden inside, such as Easter eggs on inner layers. [Lorentio Brodeso]’s ‘LACED’ project offers one such method, using both chemical etching and a 5 Watt diode engraving laser to remove the soldermask, copper and FR4 fiberglass layers.
This project uses sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to dissolve the solder mask, followed by hydrogen chloride (HCl) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to dissolve the copper in each layer. The engraving laser is used for the removing of the FR4 material. Despite the ‘LACED’ acronym standing for Laser-Controlled Etching and Delayering, the chemical method(s) and laser steps are performed independently from each other.
This makes it in a way a variation on the more traditional CNC-based method, as demonstrated by [mikeselectricstuff] (as shown in the top image) back in 2016, alongside the detailed setup video of how a multi-layer PCB was peeled back with enough resolution to make out each successive copper and fiberglass layer.
The term ‘laser-assisted etching’ is generally used for e.g. glass etching with HF or KOH in combination with a femtosecond laser to realize high-resolution optical features, ‘selective laser etching’ where the etchant is assisted by the laser-affected material, or the related laser-induced etching of hard & brittle materials. Beyond these there is a whole world of laser-induced or laser-activated etching or functionalized methods, all of which require that the chemical- and laser-based steps are used in unison.
Aside from this, the use of chemicals to etch away soldermask and copper does of course leave one with a similar messy clean-up as when etching new PCBs, but it can provide more control due to the selective etching, as a CNC’s carbide bit will just as happily chew through FR4 as copper. When reverse-engineering a PCB you will have to pick whatever method works best for you.
