It really depends on your problem and the situation your in. Sometimes you cant, there are some nagging problems that can not be left and should not be ignored. I guess these things are more along the side of family and health (for me anywa

Even firewalls in the enterprise corporate environment have the same problem. Network architects (well the bad ones anyway) know what they need to do to the firewall to achieve connectivity but dont know what security side effects those cha

I think the main concern is not that someone can use your account here at HN but the fact that they can get the password file and use your password to access your personal emails and whatever else (assuming that your using the same password

Hmmmm, i dont actually agree with this very much. In the early days its quite important that you know what everyone is doing. Maybe when things are 1-2 years along there is the position for the guy that does the job that everyone else kind
