Profile handle checks out.
The business schools as far as I can tell are all teaching neoliberalism as economics. It's the only acceptable thing to teach, and the professors are chosen by their adherence to the rule. The last economics professor I talked to he ate himself to death, so I guess he proved greed works.
"Greed is human nature" is not a good foundation for an economic system. It's the path of least resistance for lazy minds at best. What it leads to is bank panics, financial crisis and things that the US government has to find a way to fix every few years when the lack of regulation gets out of hand.

People dismiss the complexity of running a steam generator even before the nuclear reactor complexity part. That's a lot of expensive shit to fix. I'm pretty sure the main turbine rotor is removed, since it could be used somewhere else instead of letting it sit there and sag out of shape. They're basically installing a new turbine into an old housing. We shifted so many jobs into finance that we can't maintain our power grid or build ships anymore. We could have at least built robots to build ships, but NOOO we all had to learn finance and marketing and not much else.

The Robots mostly failed to deal with the slippery floor. Short, stout guy with rubber shoes on got knocked over several times by those kicks. I mean he's kinda lucky the Terminator didn't put a foot through his unprotected area. This guy could punch the robots all day and not do any real harm. I didn't see any mechanical failure like a broken gearbox or burned out motor. It looks like the human ran out of juice before any of the robot's batteries died.

Mozilla is still out there fighting the good fight? What year is this???
Does anyone even test stuff on FF anymore? Safari?
I uninstalled FF because it kept asking to be the default browser. No, stay in your place. If I have to test a fix on Firefox in the next 5 years I'll reinstall it anyway. And then delete it again.

1 share is very hard to sell.
Neither one of these plans is anything but a publicity stunt and a tax dodge. Musk's stupid idea doesn't work well as a tax dodge though. How does one distribute 1 share to tens of millions of kids who don't have bank accounts much less brokerage accounts? Is he going to mail them out as paper shares, to be stored in a photo album for the next 20 years?

"The combination of the COM persistence hijack, the use of a distinctive 48-byte repeating XOR obfuscation technique with a “dummy” null terminator, and the specific hardcoded network connectivity check leads us to conclude with high confidence that this sample is a newer version of the Candiru attack chain that we captured in 2021."
As long as you're not an enemy of Israel, this attack is not aimed at you. For everyone else: delete your Windows .dll files. They're probably AdFected.

It would need the source code to do that. BOA's sources are not public. Whatever report Mythos provided will need to be turned into tickets for each CVE + system exploited for the contractors to patch. That's assuming management doesn't waste all the contractors time talking in circles in meetings.
