"We live in an open world," Ermolaev said. "It’s easy to track that Laura from the sixth apartment is being visited often by Mike from a neighboring building without the city’s surveillance cameras."
I have to wonder if Artem has read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. It has one of my favorite quotes ('cause I'm eaaasy) that I think fits humanity, from my own perspective.
In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity.
Not everyone believes this world is at all open. Still, I say that's exactly as it's intended to be, open. For societies such as in the RF or the USA, it seems we're supposed to believe that's a concept just out of reach. Perhaps it is, for a time, with just enough feet stomping on the fingers of all those hanging on a ledge. As their blood spills in the gully and under the crags of rocks--their cries won't go unheard.
Of course, energy security isn't nearly as important to Americans as.......
Energy security should be among the top items of the list of critical needs. We could certainly afford to invest heavily. A great crux of the problem is that it requires adapting to its realities, after we hit key milestones/plateaus. With optimal handling of energy markets, we could likely diminish corruption and more importantly diminish difficult to measure discrepancies in reporting, without providing a broken vacuum that requires immediate fulfillment. It could even provide an outlet for abandoning fiat currencies and fractional reserve banking. However, such changes would likely require drastic changes for much of the status quo. People would have to put aside many ideas they've hurt one another over, time and time again.
Hard to believe our leaders collectively plan for our survival beyond a few fleeting moments with such abysmal investment in things like energy security--it seems largely left to the fortunes or misfortunes of the market. Natural monopolies that last longer than the limitations of technology dictate them being natural end up asking us to call their great depletion a favorable gain (bah). And apparently, we are still collectively okay with our state of being. We all seem to quickly forget what we see each time we walk away from a mirror.
Just equip the Tesla with flashing lights and annoying sirens, when the driver has ignored the first warning. If we took the time, we could get really creative. Trunk monkeys in reverse?
Some paid less, in that scenario, but all dollars were equally worthless until they were spent. Both the buyer and the seller can think they're holding the upper hand. Likewise, they may walk away only to see their efforts rewarded with a hand full of sand. While it serves everyone right for living like insects feeding on a corpse, it serves us better to expect an entire different life awaiting those that manage to stay both alive and inspired while ripping through masses of decay.
I was thinking about amplifying an economy more than philanthropy; things that raise the global minimum uplifts others. Crumbs are pretty tasty, while they last, if the standard is low enough.
I've seen people blow through fairly obscene amounts of money. Drugs, sex, and rock n' roll were a recipe for a stroke for one. For another, a fatal heart attack. I'd much rather see people uplifting those around them. To me, that's the mark of true wealth, and it sits next to a well of happiness.
National origin doesn't matter, people simply can't have full faith in closed source. All this propagandizing does is make modern man more equivalent to the cave man. If Kaspersky is offering source review with compilation on trusted systems, with sample submissions and the like running through trusted networks, then it's probably more trustworthy than others. People will remain clubbing it out like cave men, until they fundamentally change their markets and valuations, along with their software. Software bound to the confines of a society thriving on corruption bleeds that same corruption. Our own abhorrence towards such a state of being should inspire us to try and change it for the better, despite the likelihood of ending up as its victims ourselves.
I think societies that embrace fiat currency lack a working concept of altruism. I also think that men tend to become murderously violent when forced to think--even possessing stellar IQs. Until that changes, man will never be capable of becoming his own species, dependent on no others.
Crime is more a result of people collectively lacking scruples sound enough to write and uphold laws that weren't meant to be broken from the onset.
From where do scruples come?
Scruples come from open cooperation with hesitation to act when it's lacking. An ethic of reciprocity, so to speak. To have scruples is to be, rather than to seem to be, I suppose. "To be or not to be: that is the question..."
"To the maggots in the cheese, the cheese is the universe. To the worms in the corpse, the corpse is the cosmos." That has to be one of my favorite ways of thinking about how people tend to operate. Surely insulting, while getting right to a point. Perhaps if we were able to tunnel out of the rotten cheese, we wouldn't be compelled to fight about which of us are more capable of eating our way out. The way I see it, crime isn't primarily caused by low intelligence and/or poor impulse control--unless you're speaking about those that write the relevant law. Crime is more a result of people collectively lacking scruples sound enough to write and uphold laws that weren't meant to be broken from the onset.
Too bad we can't claim (that I know of) our posts accidentally submitted without first authenticating. If I wrote such a feature, I might compare requestor's IP and browser headers against the submission in question, then only change Anonymous Coward to Absent Minded Professor.;) Speaking of things I would do, when it comes to Bob, you could always forget changing his mind and then hire me to have that fun... eheh
I think your signature says just as much as your comment.:D One-eyed Kings, in the Land of the Blind, are only slightly comfortable within their realm; when many lay in wait, to sever the King's head, and take their crown. In my experience, management can often be blind to the fact that IT geeks, although we love the work, we aren't slaves, robots, or indentured servants. In such cases, it's more like working for failure, than being one. I think AC did themselves a favor, in keeping their sights high. I've made the mistake of setting mine low. Admittedly, I pay for it; even to this day. I guess, at the very least, the resulting stress does a good job of making one feel alive, in the struggle to survive.
I think older people asking for higher pay than their younger counterparts, based on their experience, isn't necessarily simple math. I'd much rather have positions filled, relative to experience, based on the business need. Unless you're hiring a savant, a college graduate with no prior experience, is likely to need more time or training, depending on the task. Some graduates aren't even cut out for the task, and you won't know, until you try them. On the other hand, someone asking for a higher salary, with a nice CV/Resume and Letters of Recommendation--seems less likely to need as much hand holding. Unfortunately, in the real world, nothing is certain. Any way you go about it, hiring is a gamble. If you can't afford the risk, the lesser of the two evils, the lower income bracket, oftentimes does make more sense, at least to me.
Rhinotillexomania should be sufficient. Really what we need are superior genetics. Earth men, send me all of your earth women. I will inseminate free of charge. I offer superior genes from a force that transcends the entire hyper-dimensional multiverse. Please call: 555-7337.

I'll agree they have fool faith, bad faith, but not full faith, good faith.

At least one person wasn't simply glancing at the article... Thank you.

I confronted my fear of failure long ago. Now, grinding has more to do with my hatred of [unnecessary] failure.
Follis.
He didn't say anything about the coveted self-destruct button. > : )
But what is a "Financial IP address" wrt the chart on page 12? Most of the other data is an ip or domain?
From page 16: "... an IP address allocated to a large US financial institution."
Maybe we should take the advice of Rector Mompesson, stop the cleanup, and burn it all! > : ) j/k
