rich people are susceptible to the same herd/exclusivity psychology the rest of us are.

to those who don't know, fund management firms have plenty of sales people, except they're not called sales people, they're called VPs, managing directors, partners, etc. but their job is to sell their services and bring new assets (MONEY) under management. they do this through social interaction and posturing. a lot of these people don't even actually manage the money, they just outsource it to hedge funds and banks with high end management services. they're constantly being wined and dined by bankers and traders, people they claim to hate yet they keep shoveling money in their direction. hmm.

why else do you think they have "minimum" asset requirements? there's no logical reason to have one -- once your client's money is in your pocket you can shift it around from a single pool of capital no matter how big or small the transaction. which is basically what an ETF is. there's software to keep track of all the individual deposits and returns. the truth is they market that exclusivity and they sure as hell don't want to talk with anyone who doesn't have millions of dollars. i can't say i blame them.

one thing they all have in common is they all look down their noses at "retail" financial services. it's just a big social game played by very smart people, like venture capital.

it's pretty tenuous, but real nonetheless.

this is despite (or maybe because) of my best efforts to secure systems as a major part of my job.

1. every tag pattern that triggers the bug(s)

2. which broken pages with that pattern were requested at an abnormally high frequency or had an unusually short TTL (or some other useful heuristic)

3. on which servers, and at what time, in order to tell

4. who's data lived on the same servers at the same time as those broken pages

to even begin to estimate the scope of the leak. and that doesn't even help you find who planted the bad seeds.

since anyone can put a broken page behind cloudflare, all you need to do is request your own broken page through cloudflare, and start collecting the random "secure" data that comes back.

illegal aliens are different than legal immigrants, and should be treated differently under the law, and in society.

frankly, i don't care what the republicans or steve bannon think about it, that's apparently a major concern of yours, but isn't one of mine.

let's say all your worst fears are true, and bannon secretly is literally hitler. does that change the fact that legal vs. illegal immigrants are different, and should be treated differently, with a different set of laws and social acceptance? because i would say that even if he is literally hitler and mussolini combined, that would still hold true.

i mean, what is your actual point here? that you don't like steve bannon? okay, great.

namely: legal and illegal immigration are completely different things and anyone who says otherwise is disregarding law and social norms.
