T2 Challenge 2018 Winner
This year the annual T2 conference decided that their "challenge" would be a little bit different than previous years. I visited the conference in 2016 after winning a ticket through the T2 challenge and I was very impressed by the high quality of the event. This year the challenge was to submit an application proving "To showcase technical excellence and prove you deserve a free ticket". Being from Sweden, as anyone who know about Swedish culture, this required en enormous amount of willpower as boasting about your skills is about as un-Swedish as it gets. However, I pushed through an submitted a motivational letter in the form of a classic five paragraph essay. To my slight surprise and great joy, I won the challenge! This means I'm going to the T2 conference next week. I'm really looking forward to it and hope to see you there. Again casting aside my cultural heritage, I have published the text I submitted to deserve this below.

I solved the challenge badge, got a prize from him in the form of a Pimoroni Pirate Radio which I assembled and documented here.

Static Jekyll site with S3, CloudFront & CodePipeline
Through my day job I been exposed a lot to AWS. I really like AWS and I think they create some cool services. Until now I have hosted this website on my own server (AWS EC2) using a stack of Ubuntu, Apache and Jekyll. With alternative solutions than doing everything yourself being all the rage now I decided to get rid of managing the server and try to host my website on AWS S3 instead. Yesterday I went ahead and did this migration. It was fairly easy and I went ahead and tweeted about it to which I got this reply by my friend Olle.

SANS Holiday Hack Challange 2017: Writeup
SANS hosted their yearly Holiday Hack Challenge this year as well. It was a fun event, even though I think the story/non-hacking part was better last year. Here is my writeup of the challenges. It's not the most thorough writeup I've done but it outlines my process of solving them.
