Those reversible lanes ("suicide lanes") have been around in Phoenix since a lot longer, starting in the 1970's. http://www.azcentral.com/news/...

Phoenix is one of the few U.S. cities in the that realizes a) Public transportation doesn't work well in low density, post-WW2 US cities (aka, the sunbelt and west coast) and b) Grid pattern streets and excellent freeways are the only reasonable, cost effective short term strategy. What is the long term strategy? Nobody knows, except maybe to completely get rid of shitty low density cities, which will never happen. American people want their trucks and backyards, and they especially don't want to have to sit next to some poor person on public transportation.

The problem is that these data compromises are going to happen and that the current magnetic strip technology is laughably obsolete and insecure. Chip + PIN effectively mitigates the weakness in magnetic strip data by embedding a chip (physical, something you have) and a pin (something you know) into the transaction process, plus many other security enhancements. Current magnetic strip cards are authenticated purely by a string of digits (something you know) and are easily copied and reproduced.

NFC-based payment system may have a chance to become popular in the mean time.

It could have just as easily been a packet sniffing engine on a local ISP, cellular network, data center etc. Maybe in front of Amazon? Were these all transferred through snapchat, dropbox or some other file sharing service that leverages AWS or some other cloud provider? Were any taken from those services by admins?

My point is, many of these images were *taken* with non-apple devices and *deleted* before photo stream was a thing. At this point it is likely someone got access to a darknet cache of images -- the sources are unlikely from one location, but from many many sources over many years.

LTDR; 1. Enable 2FA 2. If you upload something to the internet, assume someday someone will be able to see it and do whatever they want with it. Are you okay with that?

Slashdot: News for nerds, terrible at predicting anything that matters.

Talent is usually worth paying extra for, so make your business a talent center and attract the top players. Then give them freedom to get things done and don't micro manage. Ask what isn't getting done (read: the small things, like documentation) and pay someone do to that. Grease the wheels. Allowing people to work from home *IS* a huge benefit for many people, and more importantly, lets people disconnect from the office. I tend to get way more done at home as the office is just pure interrupt driven non-sense most of the time. Technology work is difficult and frustrating, but on the bright side, can pay very well. Deal with it or don't play.

For those having a hard time understanding the naming convention,

Boring: Not flashy, not exciting, not experimental, not sexy. Performs as expected.

In other words, exactly how I want my security libraries, my databases, and the other critical infrastructure that runs the planet to be described as. Boring is good. A choice between boring Plain Jane and Simple Sally? Even better. Thank you.

Is this a direct offshoot of our "never a loser" upbringing? I'm afraid these kids who go out on a rampage, thinking the entire time *they* are the victim, may actually be a victim of the coddled upbringing that seems to be commonplace since the 90's. I'm talking about helicopter parents who refuse to let their children get Bs, get second place (or even, god forbid, last place) in any kind of competition. Then we see them unable to understand and cope with failure later in life and blame others instead of accepting defeat. Like most people, I blame the parents. I blame them for not letting them fail. Parents should provide positive influence and basic necessities for children, then get the hell out of the way and let children grow up on their own.

Children who grow up without siblings (ie compeition for parents time) seem to be particularly narrisistic and useless when combined with overbearing and coddling parents. Those
