Post from Angus McIntyre @angusm@mastodon.social I can guarantee you that before the year is out we will see a bad actor offering a VPN targeted at kids that uses MLM-style techniques to get kids to promote the VPN to their friends ("Get £5 for every one of your friends who joins!”). Because that's how ban-skirting kids are going to choose their VPN: not by reading lengthy articles in ArsTechnica, but by asking their most tech-savvy buddy. Word-of-mouth is the perfect attack vector.
Post from Angus McIntyre @angusm@mastodon.social The UK government's plan to teach 10 million British children how to use VPNs may be one of the most ambitious IT education projects ever launched. Experts have praised the scheme, saying that a deft combination of incentives and peer education make it more likely to succeed than other, comparable initiatives. "With the rise of autocratic governments worldwide, VPN-literacy is more essential than ever.” said one expert, “This bold project definitely comes at the right time.”

Screenshot of an email from Limestone Digital Thanks for taking the time to apply. We're not moving forward, but I want to be specific about why - because generic rejections are useless and you deserve better than "we decided to pursue other candidates." Three things flagged during review: 1. The cover letter read as Al-generated. We asked for 3 sentences about a hard bug you fixed. We got four paragraphs about your "holistic approach to software craftsmanship." | stopped reading after "I'm thrilled to bring my innovative mindset to your cutting-edge team." 2. The take-home submission used temp1, temp2, temp3 as variable names with no comments and no tests. The logic worked, but if this is your best-foot-forward code, it raises questions about production work. 3. Our company name was misspelled as "Limeston Digital" - twice, same paragraph — in a cover letter that listed "attention to detail" as a core strength. None of this is unfixable. If you reapply with something that shows you wrote it and read it before sending, we'll review it again. No cooldown period, no hard feelings.

Post by proofofmaro I've been studying the Dunning-Kruger effect by myself for 15 minutes and I'm pretty sure I understand everything there is to know about it now. 1/2 Reply by acidosys I've been studying the Sunk Cost fallacy for 10 years now and if I stop now what was the point? reply by worddissociation I literally *just* discovered recency bias, but I firmly believe it's my favourite.
Good news! My best friend's son recommended a VPN, and now my computer can't spy on me. I'm much safer now!

Screenshot of a threads post by rei_fletcher canonically, no one knows what Gonzo is, so his lifespan is equally a mystery. It does imply that any given Rizzo is one in a potentially infinite line of rizzos. Reply by a_skull_on_fire Rizzo is Gonzo's own private Duncan Idaho.
Screenshot of a threads post by maharriton Based on the full moon being present during one of the songs on Christmas eve, the Muppets Christmas Carol takes place exactly on Christmas 1844. This means that if we assume a human lifespan, Gonzo would've likely been too old to be Jack the Ripper in 1888. Just in case you were wondering.
