Giving test subjects direct instruction made them more likely to fall for phishing attacks and less likely to explore the advanced features of software. Mindfulness training had the opposite effect. Wait, wait wait. People need to *think* at work?

Identity theft is often a multi-layered process. Once a thief gets one bit of your information, they try to use it to get more. All you need to know is that 50% of the people are lying

Just a few minutes after launch, the rocket will release canisters filled with various chemicals, forming green and red artificial clouds that may be seen along the US East Coast. Now I wish I hadn't used that Kennedy quote recently.
From the moon... to coloured clouds. Yay, progress.

Pro Tip:
Go home at the end of the work day. Several times in my career I stayed late trying to solve a problem... staring at the screen... 12-18 hours... went home and slept and fixed it 15 minutes after arriving at work the next day after a good night sleep.

The true form of "Project Scorpio" lands on November 7th. Xbox One X? Really? Really?!
That company needs a Chief Naming Officer. Xbox > Xbox 360 > Xbox One > Xbox One X. /Sigh

Which leads to the second half of my rant: it's actually Xbox (I just checked their official branding), but I've seen just about every combination: xBox, Xbox, XBox, XBOX (on the boxes to add extra confusion). They've never educated people about "the right" case for the silly name.
I have similar casing rants about .NET I might share in the future

I just went to xbox.com and turns out you are right. Not sure why I always thought it was lower case x to start. My way is better though.

Use proper gamertag pre/postfix cancer. It's either XoneX, ^X^one^X^, xXxONExXx or something similar. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

When you first start learning about Elixir, your learn that states and side effects are evil, that every functions should be “pure”, taking strictly an input and returning strictly an output without mutating anything on the process. And so is the cake

Hartator spake: Quote: Good programers will produce good code anyway. Bad programers will produce unreadable code anyway. Trying to make bad programmers better by imposing to everyone some magic programming paradigm is a mirage. It never worked and is the biggest lie in our industry.
Perhaps DNA sequencing can locate the "good programmer" genes, and then we can cull the defective, putting them on a management/marketing fast-track ?
