I would consider the final evolutionary jump to not have been at the wet market, but the virology lab where someone who works with the bat virus caught the one in circulation worldwide - this more deadly virus broke out in Wuhan because that was where the last jump occurred.

Some viruses lie dormant in our bodies for years, was someone at the lab infected with a bat SARs virus at some point, and all it needed was this other virus to come along for it to share some of its virulence?

In my experience a lot of drug use is self medication for relieving emotional or psychological pain, people who just don't feel good for whatever reason and want to feel better.

Safe from what? Always assume that an exit node is compromised. Never run unencrypted and unauthenticated traffic over it. There used to be these password sniffing experiments run over exit nodes, which always caught surprisingly many logins. Don't do it.

That doesn't mean traffic can be deanonymized. Tor as a whole isn't compromised in any meaningful sense even if the exit nodes are. Large parts of the original white paper concerns this.

I am not necessarily speaking about human trafficking in theie supply chain.

I am talking about redirecting your efforts towards issues that have a real impact. Does Apple want to do something about slavery, some philanthropic gesture?

This is the Pareto Principle at work. 20% of the people involved in an enterprise produce 80% of the value. It’s not that you don’t need the other 80% of the people, it’s that it doesn’t matter who they are.

If you remove the people in the high productivity group and replace them with people from the low productivity type then the organisation loses (roughly) 80% of its productivity. Replace people in the low productivity group and nothing happens.

Yes I agree it’s galling to see a few people compensated so highly in these situations, but as has been pointed out a) they individually most likely had little or nothing to do with bringing the problems about. b) What else are you going to do? The alternative is let the most critically essential personnel go and watch the whole organisation seize up for good.

I believe it's much more interesting to know that the attackers got the email and personal phones of the involved targeted users, that means they will explore new vectors to attack them from other sources. That alone is more valuable than 100K USD, I guess all affected users going to change their emails and phones asap, but probably it will be late. My theory is the public tweet storm was just to kill the exploit in public, they can be accesing and using the tools for very long time without anyone from twitter noticing.

> It flies in the face of the traditional reasons given for the high pay of executives

The factors that influence pay include, on one side, every single characteristic an employer could potentially be looking for in an employee, how many people there are in the labor market who have those characteristics, and how much they’re willing to pay. On the other side it’s every single characteristic an employee could potentially be looking for in an employer, how many jobs are available in the market, and how much pay they’re willing to accept.

If a job pays highly, it’s not because of one single characteristic attributed to an employee, or that the characteristics of that employee have more intrinsic value, or that there’s something about that employee that just makes them more deserving of money than the janitor is. It’s simply because the demand for whatever labour it is that that employee is providing, exceeds the supply available in the market.

Talking about pay in this manner is only talking about averages in any case. Unless they work in a union shop, an employee has the ability the negotiate pay based on they value they personally provide to the organisation. There’s plenty of reasons why one person in particular may be more valuable to an organisation than any other person with equivalent skills would be.
>- First, most executives have little impact on the specific event that put the firm under. (I was a senior marketing person; the building burned down.

without stats I gotta think your case is an outlier, and in many other companies having financial difficulties a senior marketing person might have more impact (although I think impact is generally supposed to be at a higher level than senior marketing)

My daughter works a minimum wage job. Her stories about her coworkers are appalling. For instance, a bunch of them went to a crowded rave after work one day and most of them got the virus, but they didn’t say anything and kept showing up for work until one of them became symptomatic and then it came out.

My point is, the minimum wage workers at many of these businesses could not care less whether you are following mask rules or not.

Yeah we've been tracking it and preparing for it since 1918. There's a whole industry built up over the years around preparing for this, but it still requires leadership involvement to put it into action. The leadership we have now believes in ideologies, conspiracy theories and blame. All they had to do was stand on the shoulders of science and let it work, as many previous administrations have done to prevent pandemics from becoming catastrophes.
I will add a few points which I read on a github page and I am unable to verify, so I would be keen to have others review and sanity check:

1) The likely genetic source of SARS cov1 and cov2 is a species of bat in Yunnan province, thousands of miles away, two provinces away from Hubei (Wuhan).

Ref: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5708621/

2) The outbreak allegedly started in December in Hubei province when the local bat population (which does not carry this SARS virus?) would be hibernating (?)

3) Only 66% of the initial 41 COVID patients had exposure to Huanan _seafood_ market.

Ref: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...

4) A seafood market where you would have to have non-hibernating bats from Yunnan thousands of miles away from Wuhan(?)

5) The seafood market is 13Km away from Wuhan Institute of Virology where Yunnan bats were studied. And 1.4km away from Wuhan's Centre for Disease Prevention & Control (?)

Are these points real or misinformation? If real, why is there no pressure for an independent investigation?
Technically correct, the best type of correct (for a marketing team).

An understated fact of most criminals is they are notoriously dumb. I mean, think about it, you begin stealing money, you think you can away with, then you think you can get away with invasion, murder, and disposal of the body. You really have to be dumb to even embark on this adventure.
My experience with the W3C was very complicated written specs, with sometimes no connection to reality(implementation in the browsers). And they moved too slow.

And no. I don't think you can expect the whole world to wait for some spec commitee.

Like a podcast? It works for audio. As another poster has pointed out torrents could make distribution more efficient.
I used to run a cryptocurrency website. It would get 50-100gbit+ DDoS attacks on a daily basis. This was a number of years ago.

DDoS mitigation providers wanted absolutely absurd amounts. Cloudflare took me on for $200 a month (I had confirmed beforehand). Mitigated all the attacks. All tickets were responded within minutes by network engineers working to mitigate the attack.
Similarly to social networks, their profitability and existence is linked to them being unregulated. If VPNs are regulated, and we know what that means for their users, they will be close to useless for majority.
No such precedent? George Washington forced vaccinated his entire army from smallpox. There is precedence from the very start of the country.

I am so embarrassed on your behalf.
People are incredibly creative and we should consider that there are any number of incentive ways such as access could be used for attacks.

Nevertheless, Twitter is a blip within the vast organizational structures that the world functions on. There is a huge amount of inertia there as well.

Throwing around words like thermo-nuclear war is more than a bit shrill.

There is another factor here as well - it's the same mistake you and many others make with the idea that Facebook was used to "hack an election". There is no evidence at all that opinion forming through Facebook is of any significant importance relative to Fox News, media making a big deal out of a private email servers, SuperPACs (those used to be big election influence scare of the olden days - now they are irrelevant and dwarved by Facebook). Also, people have agency and they share their believes with each other.

Which is all the say - when parent says "we'd have other problems if a Twitter hack brings down world government" then that is exactly that. If a 1000 other things must go wrong to cause a war with a false tweet, don't blame Twitter for that war.
I was experiencing it. Then I realised f-droid just hadn't updated in a while - no doubt it's that Google battery saver feature where the programs I want my phone to run to achieve some background task get banned.

Strictly speaking it isn't officially a civil war, because the cartels prefer to operate as a mafia instead of as a Party To A Conflict. (or am I showing that I grew up last century, by even considering Geneva Conventions?)

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unlawful_combatant#Prisoners_o... they certainly fulfil three conditions:

(a) That of being commanded by a person responsible for his subordinates;

(b) That of having a fixed distinctive sign recognizable at a distance;

(c) That of carrying arms openly;

but for whatever reason they feel they have an advantage in not fulfilling:

(d) That of conducting their operations in accordance with the laws and customs of war.

Nota Bene George Washington would return, unopened, letters from the British that were not properly addressed, because he wished to emphasise that his men were regulars.

In more recent news, the sundry poorly regulated US militia may have (a) and (c) but fail on (b), while the "boogaloo" have (b) and (c) but fail on (a), and neither has yet shown any sign of how far they might observe (d).
