Same here, usually the ones being called "brillant jerks" hold 3-letter positions and take engineering success as their own because they had an idea (kinda like Steve Jobs used to do).

by SadWebDeveloper 9y ago
You have two school of thought here... optimist vs pessimist. Remember that the attack affects mostly client implementations therefore still needs proximity to victim(s), this makes most of the end-of-the-world type scenarios impractical (t
