1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

I pay for one because I loathe ads. And yet, I still gotta deal with fast forwarding / scrubbing through the in-video nonsense. Like I want to buy a branded tshirt every time I watch a video.

Never heard of it. 4th try was with all the left alphabets and I got all green. Even with possible word sound I ignored it.

I'm listening to the book, A Hacker's Mind[^], by well-known cryptographer, computer security professional, privacy specialist, Harvard professor and writer, Bruce Schneier.
This is not just about computer hacking but hacks of all kinds and it will definitely raise your awareness. The subtitle is: "How the Powerful Bend Society's Rules, and How to Bend them Back"
Here's a snapshot of an excerpt of one of the most memorable hacks[^] that Schneier mentions. 
Have you read or listened to the book?
Really well written and amazing amount of information and will make you think different about the hacks that are going on every day.

Nice. I have been visiting his site for many years now, just to see what he has to say from time to time. This book you mentioned is listed on his home page under "Latest Book".

Yep, the book just came out in February, 2023 so all good fresh stuff.

The Dutch are involved too of course.

Quite surprisingly, some of the top countries in Happiness index are also top consumers of anti depressants. Looks like there is some correlation between them, hope not causation.

Such a funny coincidence! Today is my son's 30th birthday, and I'll be giving him a copy later today when I see him. It's in a box upstairs and I only just looked at the jacket about 30 minutes ago.
We're both fans. I had his Applied Cryptography book way back when. I'm looking forward to reading A Hacker's Mind.

i gave up on Schneider when i found the book which made him a 'house hold name" i.e. "Applied Cryptography" useless and instead discovered the text by Alfred J. Menezes , Paul C. van Oorschot, et al. but will examine his site now that i know about it maybe he something useful to say .

|

|
|
I'm 100% sure Schneier is not an idiot. Just saying...
|
|
|
|
|
no doubt you are correct . for many years to the present the only password manager i need is his "Password Safe" . how his aforementioned text received such great and wide acclaim while the other much superior imho was completely ignored upsets me .
