both of which are generally seen as dangerous behavior by HR types, and policy manuals generally, like those in my outfit, add that such actions are subject to discipline up to and including termination.
make it your hobby, pinhead, to discover which dictionary definition of "termination" you are going to be facing.
clearly, you have tossed your cookies every time you see a mention of King Willard I. so when Google looks at your cookies, it tosses you a dog's breakfast of Romney. what you need to do is start a riot.
the way they have these things locked up and unverified, and families of candidates invest in the companies that make 'em, you have better odds in the casinos.
so maybe you take down $5 or $10 million and you miss the magic second in which it could have been $50 million.
I can get through the weekend just fine on $5 million... and another 60 years.
the smart investor knows it's worse odds than a lightning strike to go for the last penny. even if you never have another good idea in your life, let alone one you can commercialize, have a deals lawyer in the room with you and work out a series of code taps under the table, and shake hands even if there's a little taste left on the table.
if the hack causes material changes in business or profitability, a public corporation is required by law to disclose what is known about the effect on continuing operations to the SEC, which 10K form is a public document. especially if a "going concern" warning is required by financial regulations.
you can always get more empty suits to take bonuses and spiffs. you can't get more (power, boilers, lab rats, document storage, corners full of creepy crap) once the basement floods and is filled with the raw sewage of 20 million people in a flood. so fill the basements with suits, and put the infrastructure on floors 3-6.
but now that we know where the hurricane is really going to hit, geez, we just can't chopper in any diesel and generators and mounting pedestals, and pour solid concrete footings to keep this in place, and then wire them up with backhoes to excavate and electricians to run hard conduits.
the time to think about the unthinkable, like a systems manager in IT, is long before the shit hits the fan.
enough about the solid containment structures and the huge stacks of regulations and applications they can bar the doors with. Fukushima showed all you need to lose are the diesel generator building and the high-tension wires into the plant site, and it's all over melty like s'mores and Seascape and Chernobyl.
and the billionnaires in Noo Yawk City (git a rope) who probably make the final decisions on this are holed in in their One57 condos, with a crane broken off its mast and swinging in the wind around the top floors.
those of us very sincerely upwind are already starting to chuckle under our breath.
for decades, the people that have been screwing musicians out of their ownership, royalties, and publicity have been... the owner/member labels comprising the RIAA. lawsuit after lawsuit from music giants have proved that "Hollywood accounting" has always been the hallmark of RIAA members. nobody should expect a straight answer from RIAA, except maybe for the phono equalization curve.
seems like terrorism, rape, and 1st degree murder charges are in order. and if they don't come down quickly, heck, then maybe we don't need the authorities involved at all... .
assumption 1: we can have remote control work. FALSE. any backdoor anywhere will open.
assumption 2: the vendor is secure. FALSE. any fixed system password is known to somebody bad.
assumption 3: we can use lowest-cost hardware. FALSE. there will be flash drives and dongles and games placed on these machines from who knows where.
assumption 4: we can firewall the net and have Smart Grid work safely. FALSE. it's >ALL fixed passwords out there in StupidGrid, wireless here and there, customer access... it's all bad. all. bad.
dump these bogus assumptions, and reconsider 50s systems management for SCADA... big box in the middle, no intelligence elsewhere, and no connections to anything outside the control room. much more secure.
the mail wagon got its mail from small cities by having a snatch hook grab it from a hanging hook at the edge of the platform, and the snatch hook was then pulled back into the mail car. so the CIA technology is derivative.
this time the North has nukes. sit down, shut up, and grow up, folks. stop being Kluxing idiots.
it will be really good for business as the chinese people become more and more backward, thanks to the gutless dictators in the communist party.

and all my ebullient folk would be forever happy.
now shut the hell up and get me another beer.
I have also been caught using colored CAT-5 cables.

time for Microsoft to admit they are not bigger than law, truth, and the American way.

in fact, we have one about 80 miles west of me. the GEBWR-1 design has a very wide installed footprint.

because I can.
but this was back when it was "radio with pictures" and they had text cards up with the bulletin points when they were reading ad scripts.
nowdays, it's babes making out with hamburgers and there is no direct correlation.
repeat after me... "Why should good companies dump billions into the crapper buying junk companies they've already whipped?"
repeat 10,000 times.
and now re-examine your faulty analysis.
