A better analogy would be an armored truck full of cash parking overnight in a bad neighborhood with the doors unlocked, then crying to the media about how they were robbed by criminals. There has to be some level of personal responsibility

No. The reality is that nobody cares about security unless it's their job to, so you have a handful of security people trying to get things fixed, meanwhile the rest of the organization just sees you as a speedbump in the way of implem

That's definitely true. I have a family member that was doing a running program as part of physical therapy. One day they said they were afraid to go running alone because they read about a girl getting kidnapped while she was out for

That assumes that there is a "correct" line. It's also been proven throughout history that your opinion has the opposite of the intended effect, women's rights are a good example. Trying to push the pendulum too hard too

Maybe so they can claim they've had time to review the information on their own, and determined it's not a conspiracy. If they'd done it sooner they would have been lumped in with Trump supporters, and you can see see people

Nothing is stopping people from writing their own articles on other sites for free. Developers aren't owed free articles to read, and if people want to be compensated for the time spent writing articles, then they should be.

Being the best VR game isn't a very high bar. From what I read from people who play a lot of VR games, the amount of polish was the only thing to make it stand out, and without the Half-Life name, it would just be a slow hallway shoote

Sort of off topic, but I wonder if that idea was part of the inspiration for the origin story of Godzilla, or if it's just a coincidence.

The Hunter Biden laptop story comes to mind. Twitter was even blocking DMs with a link to the story, but it turned out that what was in it was true, even if it was inconsequential. I also remember seeing a Facebook ad that had a video of Bi

The hiring process is definitely an issue. Cybersecurity is new enough that HR has no idea what they want, so they require useless certifications like CEH, and a college degree in CS. There's also a wide variation in what Cybersecurity
