2026 HackSpaceCon
Published on May 9th 2026 by Connor
On May 8th, I had the pleasure of attending Day 1 of HackSpaceCon at
the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. While currently working as a
Jr. Network Engineer, I have not had enough exposure to the cyber
security community. Attending this event was a much needed refresher
in how fun and welcoming the cyber security community is, and how
important it is to attend such events whenever possible.
Setting Up VS Code
Published on May 9th 2026 by Connor
There are a ton of options and extensions you can install for VS Code to make
it the perfect coding platform for you. The following are just what I have found
useful.
- Prettier code formatter
Install prettier, then run Cmd + Shift + P on MacOS to search. Type in
" "[html]": {"editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode",
"editor.formatOnSave": true}". Save, and now when you save a HMTL file,
Prettier will automatically format it for you. The same can be done without
Prettier, but I enjoy how it formats.
Setting Up an AutoBox on AWS
An autobox is a VM or Docker container project that I am working on,
where the purpose is to have a cloud hosted machine that will scan your public
facing machines for any vulnerabilities and notify you of any issues.
