As always...your company or project is only as good as the security you have. If you keep the most important private key in a non-air gapped location that can be hacked then it's not a matter of if, but when it will happen.

There are plenty of good managers mixed with the bad. Obviously you knew your boss in this case was a good manager and trusted him with that info. Hopefully people realize when to trust the people getting the feedback and when not to. Ge

I would say the biggest reason is that not all of the nodes were compromised. It would have been much easier to just have access to all the validator nodes, but they only gained access to 4 of them and needed to exploit an old and unused R

Would it be considered retaliation to not hire a candidate who was a whistleblower at their previous company though?

Not so sure. AMD is always free to build a fab to make their own chips. It's perfectly reasonable to refuse to serve a direct competitor...or offer the service at a huge expense that would make it unreasonable for the competitor.

The bigger question is...will they take this downtime to fix the broken ice cream machines in all 847 locations?

This makes no sense at all. Are we supposed to just pretend that Trump never made these claims? It's one thing to try to continue supporting these claims with false information and an entirely different thing to post him repeating th

This was the textbook for my networking class in my CS degree. Labs were right from that website as well. Great book for learning networks.

Yep...and this is just how society works. Like saying that if you think Harvard/Yale grads have more doors open to them in politics then you're crazy. Like of course they do...Since 1992 all of the president except Trump have ha

It doesn't work like that...once the funds are in a wallet they are intermingled and you can't just "freeze" some of them.

I mean I don't think I am, but then again how many assholes really think they are. The book is more about how being a high performer can get you into a position like management, but that same mindset won't necessarily make you a

There are a few key points in the process that you could easily disrupt and pretty much cause a scorched earth type of response. There are a few ways to do it as well...like export all of the photo masks to the US or Europe. Those fabs ca

Are they really going to freeze every wallet that has been tainted by transactions from a certain wallet? If that was the case...if I was in charge of those wallets I would absolutely send a little bit of crypto to all of the major exchang

I would say you just need to develop a habit of pushing through. Set a goal to read a few pages a day either during lunch (or cut it a few minutes short) or before you go to bed. Sometimes those examples can hit close to home with a certai

This book was given to me by the president of my company when I was promoted to management. It's a great book and like most of these types of books not all of the information applies, but it does a good job of explaining how to do a b

There are plenty of people willing to exchange crypto for fiat currency...makes it harder to get your money, but it's still way better than if the government just freezes your bank accounts.

The police protected buildings from being set on fire and their officers being attacked with lasers and fireworks. Dispersal orders were only given AFTER the protests turned violent. Comparing 100+ nights of protests and riots with Jan 6th
