The mysterious individual extorting me assures me that paying their ransom via bitcoin is even easier than a credit card transaction. How informative and thoughtful of them.

If I'm not mistaken, this is the same dev board that's been for sale from the manufacturer (sifive) for months and months [1]. Is the only news here that the board is now in stock at spark fun? [1] https://www.sifive.c

May I answer through analogy to ground our discussion in a topic more familiar? How do we define running? The expert/fit runner can: - Run faster than those that haven’t trained. - Run further than those that haven’t trained. - But a
