Otherwise, no one gives a crap about what the n00b is doing.

It should be a frontline feature to toggle on or off from the command center. It’s there once it’s enabled, but should be there by default.

> At South Carolina’s Fort Sumter National Monument, a sign that included details on the looming impacts of climate change, including information on how “rising seas could inundate most of the fort’s walls and flood the historic parade ground” was removed in its entirety.

Oxygen accumulated only after oceans already existed for over a billion years.

No matter how you look at it, if the only question was, "Do you have 100 customers?" then they could have sent and read that e-mail over breakfast.

For decades, software engineers have been smug toward a lot of surrounding professions. Look at how they treated IT because developers thought they were server and network experts. Then cloud came along, and some of that work got moved over in the name of DevOps.

Frontend and backend engineers were also treated unfairly at times. Then came roles requiring someone to be an expert in “full stack,” which I never thought was fair unless it paid a ton of money, which at times it didn’t.

Now software engineers are being obfuscated away. Well, for a long time, software engineers acted like their shit didn’t stink. Maybe that was true for a while. Unfortunately, I’ve seen a lot of my colleagues not care who they walked over. But guess what, there are a ton of people out there who are going to be perfectly happy hearing the cries of software engineers now.

“Be careful of the toes you step on today. They may be connected to the ass you need to kiss tomorrow.”

It’s widely known how much Microsoft cooperates with three letter agencies. I think they are in a bind on how to act in these situations. They don’t want to acknowledge or fix the 0-day vulnerabilities because they don’t know if those are in use via state sponsored operations. Either they deal with customer fallout or they deal with the grief from their agency liaisons that they interrupted a multi-year operation by fixing the 0-day.

Vulnerability researchers really should avoid reporting to Microsoft and just sell them instead.

The only thing worse than the people saying it are the people that repeat it.

Excellent! Whether it was a human or an autonomous agent that wrote it; mission accomplished.

LOR is the right approach.

I absolutely loathe calls, but I can also be a grown up and just do what needs to be done sometimes.
