I'm listening to the book, A Hacker's Mind[^], by well-known cryptographer, computer security professional, privacy specialist, Harvard professor and writer, Bruce Schneier.
This is not just about computer hacking but hacks of all kinds and it will definitely raise your awareness. The subtitle is: "How the Powerful Bend Society's Rules, and How to Bend them Back"
Here's a snapshot of an excerpt of one of the most memorable hacks[^] that Schneier mentions. 
Have you read or listened to the book?
Really well written and amazing amount of information and will make you think different about the hacks that are going on every day.

Nice. I have been visiting his site for many years now, just to see what he has to say from time to time. This book you mentioned is listed on his home page under "Latest Book".

Yep, the book just came out in February, 2023 so all good fresh stuff.

The Dutch are involved too of course.

I always thought it was the hashish, I mean, coffee.

Quite surprisingly, some of the top countries in Happiness index are also top consumers of anti depressants. Looks like there is some correlation between them, hope not causation.

Such a funny coincidence! Today is my son's 30th birthday, and I'll be giving him a copy later today when I see him. It's in a box upstairs and I only just looked at the jacket about 30 minutes ago.
We're both fans. I had his Applied Cryptography book way back when. I'm looking forward to reading A Hacker's Mind.

i gave up on Schneider when i found the book which made him a 'house hold name" i.e. "Applied Cryptography" useless and instead discovered the text by Alfred J. Menezes , Paul C. van Oorschot, et al. but will examine his site now that i know about it maybe he something useful to say .

I'm 100% sure Schneier is not an idiot. Just saying...
|
|
|
|
|
no doubt you are correct . for many years to the present the only password manager i need is his "Password Safe" . how his aforementioned text received such great and wide acclaim while the other much superior imho was completely ignored upsets me .

I didn't know Bruce was still around! I met him and chatted a bit many years (okay, decades) ago and was absolutely fascinated by his work. I'll have to look for his book!

He's not that old (born in 1963).

True, but I am! Not being in that field, I hadn't thought of him in a very long time! I met him at WESCON at the Anaheim Convention Center in about 1978 or so, and bought his book there.

You must be misremembering the date. In 1978, Bruce Schneier was only 15 years old.

You're right. It's been a long time! I don't even think WESCON still exists! He was young at the time, but not that young!

Makes you realize that corporate taxes need to be on gross sales. Then this type of shenanigans won't work because you're paying the taxes on your actual sales.

I locked my chickens up last night, and I missed one of them.
I found her this morning, outside and injured, her comb pretty much chewed/ripped off. Luckily she wasn't bleeding heavily, but she's not really eating.
I'd take her to the vet, but hubby has the car until he gets back into town today. I don't usually drive so it's not normally an issue, but I may need to call the in-laws. I just had FIL over here yesterday about a power issue.
I feel terrible about this. Poor thing. 
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.
