How do we secure internet to the point it does not work anymore. Well except government and big corporate sites

>"C-suite types commit more crimes than prisoners, but I'd wager they don't."

On behalf / or covered by corporations they openly do things for which any normal person would be criminally charged and put behind bars. Wake me up when people who for example were involved in Bradley development scandal are punished. Or ones involved in DuPont PFOA contamination case etc. etc. So they do have criminal mind. They just know they would personally get away with it and in a worst case the corporations get fined.


"For the little stealing, they give you prison, soon or late. For the big stealing, they names you emperor, and puts you in the hall of fame when you croaks. If there's one thing I've learned from from twenty years on the Pullman cars listening to the white quality talk, it's dat same fact."

From "The Emperor Jones", quoted from memory.


I read that in Jar Jar Binks voice. :D

>"smart people - who grow up in disadvantaged locales - and have emotional trauma due to the above - may end up in a life of crime and then prison"

I believe this to be true and some of my former schoolmates who were brilliant IQ wise and got high marks on math and physics still ended up in jails. Some were later able to recover and lead more productive life


I think this whole article and post is an attention / points seeking exercise. It is hard to imagine programmer who would not know difference between DBMS and just bunch of files and when to use which

Of course it is :).

In the old USSR one had to register a typewriter. Sweet memories. And at that time western people (deservedly) laughed at it or used facts like this to show how backwards the country was

It's okay when corporation does it...

And the corporation is free to sell all that data straight to the government the second after collecting it. The communists just screwed up trying to do all the authoritarianism by themselves.

Lucky me, I've never had to say Hi Agile in a first place. It is a tumor. Been in programming since 80s. Mostly on my own except 6 years long stint at the company. Quit in 2000 from position of CTO

at the same time, how can you judge something so harshly if you've never experienced it yourself.

Because I had "pleasure" watching others doing it. One does not have to step into shit personally

I've fed it few photos. The conclusions was an absolute trash. Well it did distinguish skin color and body build type. Congrats /s

I must've been a lucky one. I develop software since 80s. Went from directly entering machine codes and up to enterprise middleware, backends and various device control and multimedia game like systems. In all my life I've only had a single case of deadlock. But it cost me more than 24 hours no sleep marathon trying to nail it down. It was related to communication between my custom Directshow filters and threads in a main software.

Russia has been modifying Shahed drones for quite a while. May be they've shared back or Iran got creative on their own

>"Nobody forced Iran to build all these missiles and to try and build a nuclear weapon or kill their own people or fund actual terrorist groups"

Sounds exactly like the US with the exception that they prefer to kill other people, not their own.
