That used to be true about Japan using the "1 the day you're born" system, but now it's mostly only referenced to joke about kids trying to claim they're older than they really are.

A pro baseball player can tell if someone is throwing a baseball well by watching them do it. Baseball training camps like pitching workshops often bring in pro players to coach new players on technical points of pitching. If those pro play

Hear, hear! Glad to see a lot of my own criticisms of that article echoed by this author. AI is a tool, not an employee.

This is why I run a set of rackmount servers at home, that have the media and apps that I want to consume. If my ISP bites the dust tomorrow, I've literally got years worth of music, books, tv, movies, etc. Hell, I even have a bunch of

This seems to falsely assume that technical users are more aligned with whatever the status quo is, and non-technical users are the ones who are looking to change things. In reality, technical users become technical users because they want

One thing that really bothered me that the author glossed over (perhaps they don't care, given the tone of the article) is where they said: > Does an intern cost $20/month? Because that’s what Cursor.ai costs. > Part of bein

This isn't just in infosec. The myth of the auteur is common across jobs that rely on groups of people. There is always someone willing to claim singular or outsize credit for something that is a collaborative, iterative, communal ende

This is true of even disclosures with all information available. I can't count how many people did incorrect or unnecessary fixes for log4shell, even months after it was disclosed.

Yep. People keep pushing this false dichotomy that it's either company-directed 'responsible disclosure', or it's "release full working POC and complete writeup publicly, immediately", and there's no middl

I understand the arguments for the current system, I just don't agree that disruption is worse than loss of agency. Your position inevitably ends up arguing for a paternalistic approach, as you are when you say > It eliminates the d

A better analogy would be if you see a bunch of people walking around in faulty stab vests, and you tell them that the vests are faulty before they are recalled and replaced by the company. In which case, telling everyone those vests are ac

I don't remember one solitary lecture on CI/CD, microservices, or even just deployment in general, in Uni. The closest that our comp. sci. classes ever came to touching on anything but the code itself was making us use SVN.

There is a difference between design that tries to prevent someone from shooting themselves in the foot (designing around how users interact), and design that seeks to influence or limit their behavior. The former is safety, the latter is m
