Not all crypto is like this. Ethereum moved to a proof-of-stake model for specifically this reason.

The person in question (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonb16/) seems to have come from the FBI and NSA background and has never worked for anyone but the federal government. As a result, they are likely to have a myopic view on the art of the possible.
I suspect Meta and Google are far more adept at processing and gaining insights from OSINT than anyone from the FBI.
These steps have been going on by these companies for three years straight now.
Either fire them or give up. There's no middle ground anymore.
Frankly it's becoming exhausting.
So let me get this straight...
None of these employees management chain can get them to go back to the office?
You think a strongly worded letter will get them to act when their manager can't?
The employees are completely insubordinate. Either fire them with cause, or don't.
These workplaces are acting the same way as someone in a toxic relationship, thinking that they will be able to "change" them with words.
You're not going to change them. Either let them go, or put up with it as is. There isn't another third option.
You really shouldnt comment on things when you obviously have no clue as to the background because it makes you look foolish.
That's not what happened here whatsoever. The woman was hit by a HUMAN driver, and FLUNG INTO THE PATH of the cruise vehicle, which WAS following all of the rules. The vehicle was able to STOP INSTANTLY due to it being autonomous, which indisputably saved the woman's life. At that point though, she had fallen to the road and because the car couldn't see her, she ended up being drug to the curb, as it parked itself (which it is programmed to do after any collision when it is safe to do so). This dragging is what all the controversy is about, because a human would likely have known something was up and not drug her... what is never brought up is she would already be a corpse becsuse the human would have already killed her.
I am replying to the parent who is saying "the tech isn't ready yet"
There is no threshold where it will be "ready", I'd "ready" means 100% guaranteed to never harm anyone.
The fact is every day we delay deploying these systems, we are directly responsible causing thousands more deaths. That's a fact.
Ability to run any browser extension you want for one.
iOS does not allow browser extensions because of Apples iron grip on the engine. Over on Android people have the full power of browser extensions, it is so, so much better.
If this situation had involved a human driver - that woman would be dead.
Yes it is horrible that the car drug her. But what is constantly ignored is the initial collision - which was entirely the fault of another HUMAN driver - would have been FAR WORSE with a human driver's poor reaction time. She would have surely died.
The reality is that the entire situation was 100% human caused, and the autonomous vehicle saved her life. But that is not a sexy narrative for the media, nor regulators.
You don't seem to understand how most cyber attacks work. There is no need whatsoever for a system to be connected to the internet to be subject to a cyber attack. Many cyber attacks leverage physical ingress. Stuxnet is one major well known example but there are countless others.
What's more... why bother with this when all you really need to do is take over the CNC and forge orders...
Now instead imagine that one of those "third-world countries" initiated a cyber attack on Russia that led to it launching one or more warheads at the US, and at the same time initiating an attack on China that led to it launching against Taiwan.
You're illustrating my point.
eBay started as a P2P selling site. It was not for "serious sellers", it was to sell one-off things.
Catering to "serious sellers" and all their affiliated baggage and issues - and having too easy of a dispute process - is what ruined the entire platform.
Ebay is overly hostile to sellers.
It ceased being a site that the casual person could use to sell their household items a long time ago. It is now way easier, cheaper, and less risky to use sites like Poshmark or Etsy for that purpose.
Ebay's great F Up is they tried to become another Amazon by attracting all these giant commercial retailers to set up store fronts - and in that process they screwed up their core value prop, which was peer-to-peer sales.
And it sounds like your parents failed you as well.
My daughter got taught not to take medicine from when she was two.
Stuff like this is not an actual issue for people who look after their kids.
And?
A child can't open the bottle. Even if they could read, they don't have the hand strength. Source: have a child, she is 8 and is just now finally able to open these herself.
If your young child has access to gummy vitamins or melatonin - which means not only are they not on a high shelf, but youve removed them from the child proof packaging - then you have failed as a parent.
