Be honest.......do you really think the Democrat party will be 'clean' after purging Clintonistas?
Do you think it was ever a party of the common people?
I'd be willing to bet that password reuse isn't the problem so much as weak passwords in the first place.
For example, in moderately large places (greater than 100 people) where passwords are required to change every quarter, you can be fairly certain that someone will use the password scheme "Spring2017"
That's funny, and probably true; those of us who don't use Perl but use a lot of regular expressions are unlikely to feel the hate.
It seems intuitively true, but the hypothesis was developed entirely empirically: at one point I realized that everyone I know who dislikes Perl also doesn't understand regular expressions. Since then, I've continued asking people when the topic comes up. So far I haven't found an exception.
If everyone had a password manager, then IT would spend all their time replacing passwords for people who forgot the password to their password manager.
And if the passwords are stored in the cloud, they are almost guaranteed to not be secure.
If you find someone who 'hates' Perl, ask them if they understand regular expressions. In most cases their 'hate' is actually fear of the unknown. It is their own ignorance that causes their hate.
Finance is a field ripe for disruption. The only reason it's still around in its current form is because bankers make such good friends with politicians, making laws that would keep out disruptors.
I don't really care what you believe (go ahead and believe in angels for all I care)........ ......instead tell me your reasoning. What do you have to support your hypothesis?
In short, I believe that salaried employment will not disappear, although it might become less prevalent over time.
That's too bad. I was looking forward to the future with a 4 hour work week, and robots doing all the actual work, sitting on the beach being served pina coladas by a robot.
Modern movies all fit a very tight formula, which is admittedly very powerful and compelling, but it prevents certain types of creativity from shining. Atop that, movie studios refuse to take risks on new material,
Aw if you want to go on like that, plagues are basically a constant. Look at what happened in Islam and Persia during that period, humanity as a whole went forward.
Actually it did not. It collapsed and stagnated for 500 years and more.
The plague was in the 1300s, coinciding with the start of the Renaissance, one of the greatest flowerings of society in history. I'm not sure why you think it collapsed, especially stagnating for 500 years or more (Goethe, Mozart, and Kepler all fall into that time period, for example).

When you invite enough lawyers to the party, they will start doing lawyery things.

The Cyber Squirrel conspiracy goes well, I see. But I'm on to them.
What makes KeePass so good?
Password managers have the problem that if you are compromised, every password is lost. So which is the more likely scenario?
Passwords are not good security, even with a password manager.

Indeed. A regex is almost always more clear than corresponding procedural code that doesn't use a regex.
If you find someone who 'hates' Perl, ask them if they understand regular expressions. In most cases their 'hate' is actually fear of the unknown. It is their own ignorance that causes their hate.
Show me a person who hates Perl, and I'll show you a person who doesn't grok regex.

I am suspicious of anyone who says that incandescent light bulbs provide good quality light. Some do, but not the ones you typically find in a house.
That's exactly what Elon Musk is doing.............
We're not living in hell. Life is pretty good, all things considered. It could be better.

Sure, she won't want to work though.

LED lighting is one of the greatest things ever invented. There's basically no downside.

Have you seen Victoria and Abdul?
Oh, they're giving actual access to the filesystem.
When you say "user downloads the file", or "download.php" or other similar words, there are three vulnerabilities that immediately spring to mind.
What security problems does that give you? Unless you're thinking of some kind of XSS (or similar).
