I read the article, as much as I could stand. 
While the article is about DefCon and takes more time to
illustrate Theo De Raadt as a hacker, it's difficult to read.
Mostly it seems from the authors need to educate us on
large words that barely fit into the article. That and run-on
sentences and scretching the grammer where barely plausible.

I guess I should be the last to speak as sometime my 
rant extend into nothing-ness. Hence, read this after at least
a good cup of coffee or a six-pack of Jolt.
