I wonder if they change their tune if enough people say they are coming from effected areas / experience symptoms.
So what your saying is the movie "Idiocracy" already happened??
(Plot- the smartest people stop reproducing, only lower rings of society have kids. An average guy wakes up hundreds of years in the future and is a genius)
Amen to that. My company does very large cyber security contracts for DoD and has a god awful home page. It's almost like a badge of honor to someone how bad it is.
"PERSPECTIVE. The wealthiest person I have spent time with makes about $400mm/year. i couldn't get my mind around that until I did this: OK--let's compare it with someone who makes $40,000/year. It is 10,000x more. Now let's look at prices the way he might. A new Lambo--$235,000 becaome $23.50. First class ticket internationally? $10,000 becomes $1. A full time executive level helper? $8,000/month becomes $0.80/month. A $10mm piece of art you love? $1000. Expensive, so you have to plan a bit. A suite at the best hotel in NYC $10,000/night is $1/night. A $50million home in the Hamptons? $5,000. There is literally nothing you can't buy except."
Reminds me of the book "private empire" about ExxonMobil.
"Private Empire pulls back the curtain, tracking the corporation’s recent history and its central role on the world stage. The action spans the globe, moving from Moscow, to impoverished African capitals, Indonesia, and elsewhere in heart-stopping scenes that feature kidnapping cases, civil wars, and high-stakes struggles at the Kremlin."
Big cooperations could easily find a way to run a "blackops" negative PR campaign, on top of pulling strings in the SEC
> Obviously, screening for specific personality traits has not kept Bridgewater or Stripe from succeeding. Uber, however, might be a different story. I am going to argue that personality trait screening may have harmed Uber.
I agree there has been turmoil that has been detrimental to uber. But maybe the fact they specifically looked for hard core, "won't take no for an answer" is the reason they reached massive market / valuation they did. Lyft choose the "friendly" route and didn't get anything close to Uber size/valuation.
I'm not saying this is the best strategy/ always works, but you are saying you consider stripe successful basically because they have not had turmoil/bad press, despite the fact they are a fraction of the value of Uber.
Tldr: you probably NEED aggressive, won't take no, type of ppl to grow to a Uber size as quickly as they did.
wow there was a beautiful video. I like at the beginning how he explains how difficult it was to actually create this experiment, so I could understand how important this actually was. Also that it hasn't been done in like 40 years or whatever.
Reddit world news has a bot that does like a 5-7 sentence summary of articles. Would be cool if you could run that on the articles and read it. Nice to hear a human voice.
> run it on a different network than your NAS and other computers. And that all other devices best require passwords to connect to them. Ideally you run a TV on a different VLAN.
Very important. I used to have no password on any of my internal network devices, then changed to all the same pw. I need to put them all different, because threats seem more likely to come from internal "trusted" sources that we bring in
I was wondering how Breitbart and Trump did so well. It makes sense now that it was not luck, but they had access to new "tech" in away. Fake news for them is kinda like how Obama was the first to used Twitter and other SM platforms to get connect with voters and get elected.
Reminds me of the quote ~ "it's artificial intelligence until you understand how it works. Then it's just algorithms"
Wow that was a very detailed look at how buying and selling of vulnerabilities work. Thank you for sharing. It's interesting how many different companies there are in the world and how they seem to have a Cooperative working agreement with each other if the price is right
