The less stimulation there is, the worse this gets for me. a.k.a. I sleep best in a sea of LEDs and to the sounds of PC fans and rainfall.

That is identical to my observations from a data science perspective.
Yes! Agreed! Earthbound observatories in second line are in a constant struggle of acquiring proper funding. Which means, that they are operated by people with passion - for the science. The unfortunate side effect is, that everything that isn't operations and academia takes second place again. Employing someone dedicated to just cybersecurity isn't perceived as a priority - after all, 'why would anyone hack an observatory?'
That is the kind of fallacy that can only be avoided if you already had an expert in house, unfortunately. I have been working with researchers, too, and I got the general impression that the appreciation for and crossover of ideas between departments has a lot of room for improvement. So that could also be a factor.
Ngl... the press release and article reeks like their IT department was a shitshow to begin with and the only method they could think of defending was to rip out ALL the cables.
I bet it wasn't even a targeted attack, but they have to frame it that way to save face.
edit: Also... sympathies for everyone being stalled in their research for ... 25(!) days now. This for sure could have been prevented with better risk management and damage control.
too easy.
I don't think I have strong preferences for any specific part.
Legendary feeling of Catharsis: Definitely worth it.
I just hope he got all the papers he needed before that and a new job in the bag, because doing this without either of these conditions fulfilled can haunt you later.
But I am pretty sure he did.
If you know what you're doing, you have a chance of not trashing your board.
This person clearly doesn't - so it's Bad with a capital B.
I took it as a challenge to figure out which exhibits in my funny internet picture collection technically fit the definition given in the sidebar.
Final Destination 6
Everyone should be aware that the final say is provided by Putin. And is a foregone conclusion - for purely tactical and propaganda reasons, the official version will be that Prigozhin is dead. And nobody will contest that - least of all Prigozhin himself.
"Unnamed iStock photo model" is the best answer I managed to arrive at.
Is it too late to call in for a replacement?
I don't think I like the new Decisions&Discourse expansion for Social: The Gathering.
Okay,
- Ouch. and
- why is that considered a bad source of dopamine?
This comic hits that ND relatability and validation spot so often, it became the only reason for the Twitter app to still exist on my phone.
I have no idea, who these characters are. But they vibe.
Be advised: I recognize this person joining and speedrunning Ban% in safespaces for several months now. This is at least my 4th sighting of them. They will antagonize the userbase in record time by blatant disregard of netiquette and basic human decency. They will cite any of their vast repertoire of mental conditions or minority membership cards as justification when called out on bad behavior - whatever is convenient at the time. Conversation to them is a game that must be won at all cost and people with even slightly differing opinions are seen as enemies that need to be defeated (and also humiliated) Their strategy is generally to single out one member and harass them with wall of text posts.
Do not engage. Do not educate - dozens have tried and failed. Just identify the pattern and ban permanently, before they can do any lasting damage to your community.
