That dude was a special kind of stupid. The attack script had his name on it, usee his account status as the trigger, and was running from his laptop. It attacked other peoples profiles and was extremely explicit in being designed to revenge his firing.

There are for sure idiots in infosec, but when your job is working to close holes and gaps, it gets pretty easy to learn what to "forget" about if you want to cause devastation in a deniable way. There are so, so many ways to fuck this job up, doing it on purpose would be a cake walk.

Quipy, and dead on about the joints and ligments, but bad advice on the muscles.

Go ahead and tear a muscle and then enjoy either surgery or spending months/years waiting for it to heal, same as a joint or ligament tear.

We are resilient in general, but any sudden "treat them like dirt" action can fuck up either. If you want to "get shit done" you need to build to it, grease the groove until your body adapts to the motion.

Looks like we are on the same page, but just talking past each other.

That's what a black box is, but colloquially, it's also a way to call something "unknowable" or "magic."

I thought you were referring to it as the latter, not the former.

I think the point is that we designed the black boxes to do X and they do X consistently, just with slight variation.

If I make a cake making machine and it consistently makes cakes, its not a magic box just because I'm not sure if it will be creme frosted or not.

Also Paypal, and in a lot of ways, Facebook.

Also he bought and paid for J.D vance, and runs all sorts of alt right think tanks and influencers.

Tango gameworks says hi. One of the few ever to escape this hell cycle, albeit painfully.

The just dripping irony of Microsoft praising the studio as making exactly the kind of excellent games it needs and then shutting the studio down suddenly will never be beat though.

If you only have to have a cert to be promoted, then OP can simply not do it and not be promoted. No conversation with his boss would be necessary.

It sounds more like the org need X amount of people qualified to have "gold" status with a vendor, so they pressure you to get it and make any promotion contingent on you having/gaining this cert.

Extremely online echo chamber talk doesnt make sense in any language if youre ourside that echo chamber.

Him being a 4chan shitbird means most the people here on lemmy likely weren't going to be clue'd in immediately.

If the certs were not required, you have a point. If they are required to the point where OP has to have a discussion about not doing them with his boss, then the buisness needs to keep paying, drop the requirement or find new employees.

Vulgarian sound like "vulva." It was probably that weak similarity to dirty, evil sex that got the line cut.

They should put "arrives" in quotes, not Jetsons.

If you can't buy this or have it independently tested, it hasn't arrived anywhere. Just more "home robots are really here this time guys, really I mean it this time, really. Invest more billions in our company and you'll get one, for real."

I have a strong but as of yet untested theory that no human will ever levitate based on magnitized internal human water.

A magnet sufficiently strong enough to levitate a human based on the water in the body is more likely to remove the water from the body instead.
