- Comment on Are there documentaries, movies, about youth suicides or suicide attempts particularly those in East Asia or amongst the East Asian diaspora? 2 weeks ago:
Mate, let’s first focus on getting you better. Nevermind how the parents would react, parents aren’t there forever and their reach on our lives can only go so far. I know in Asian culture things can get nasty, but at the end of the day there’s just you and your sense of self. It gets better as you age and get to know yourself more and work through the issues left by trauma. But we need to get away from the morbidity aspect, that’s not good for you.
Sorry, I’m not trying to be your therapist, but there’s some relatability in your words, I feel an impulse to help.

Hmm I don’t know… Users usually don’t pay much attention to security. And the disclosure method actively hides it from the user until it no longer matters.
For providers, I understand, but can’t fully agree. I think it’s a misguided culture that creates busy-work at all levels.

Indeed, then it becomes a market and it incentivises more research on that area. Which I don’t think is helpful for anyone.It’s like your job description being “professional pessimist”. We could be putting that amount of effort into building more secure software to begin with.

That’s the fallacy I’m alluding to when I mention stuxnet. We have really well funded, well intentioned, intelligent people creating tools, techniques and overall knowledge in a field. Generally speaking, some of these findings are more makings then findings.

God, I hate security “researchers”. If I posted an article about how to poison everyone in my neighborhood, I’d be getting a knock on the door. This kind of shit doesn’t help anyone. “Oh but the state-funded attackers, remember stuxnet”. Fuck off.

It can be overwhelming, yes. But it’s not difficult. A bunch of dumb people go through it every day and they get to their destination just fine. =)
Don’t worry about anxiety, once you get there just focus on the next thing that needs to be done at any given moment and you’ll be ok. You’ll find that the brain gets into a problem-solving state and you’ll be landing in Korea before you even notice.

Poor banker. I can’t hold my tears.

How dare you!
