Risky.biz - "cybersecurity" but done with great energy.

Gratitude and humility.

Concentrate on the multiple wonderful things you've experienced in this life.

Recognise that every single one of your ancestors had their life, then it ended just as yours will. Recognize that you are part of a community of all of those millions of lives.

You say this, and yet Simon Bridges was relentlessly hassled about his accent...

Hard to know how you could state this so confidently, snacked on a kakapo recently?

I was excited for a moment, because I was a listener of his "Daily show" way-back-when distinctly remember when Apple got on board for example. At the time he was legitimately a pioneer of the technology, terminology and the medium.

Unfortunately/fortunately? I'd pretty much not tracked him for 15+ years, so had forgotten what a sleazy Bagshot crazy he's become. Sad.

"First, the importance of gratitude" - so true

Thanks, I did dig through my emails and got in touch with a few of The Originals. You guys were willing to buy a "pig in a poke" - I gave out no outline or Table of Content (still don't!), and you paid Real Money to get content into you email each day for a month. These youngsters are getting it all for free! Thanks again. - Steve

Ha, ha, my original goal was to make a tidy pile of $$, but also a desire to teach and share. The feedback I get is certainly bouying me up as I go forward toward that big unknown. Thanks for your thoughts.

Thanks for those that got the word out. Looks like we have a "class" of about 1,300 for this month, and its humming along nicely. (There are 5,630 sub'd, but that includes all those from previous classes who've not unsub'd - its an imprecise art!)

Yes! This is techy and certainly not everyone "cup of tea" - most people would run a mile. But everyone is learning to remotely control a powerful server on the Internet ...which I think is cool and empowering.

We're covering the basic Linux skills to do that, and have a vague "junior sysadmin role in big company" in mind.... But nothing stops you using these same skills to create your own website, security scanning service, or get into robotics.

While discrimination unfortunately exists in some places, just avoid those and go forward. As for disablement, you just do what you can at the speed you can. (You're reading this fine, and have no idea what a hassle it was for me to write!)

Absolutly recommend "Murderball", quite an amazing film.
