Art kills crime. Never mistake the arts for frivolous. They are the cornerstone of democracy.
Fun fact: a program called "Shakespeare Behind Bars" helps inmates put on the classics. The recidivism rate among participants? 6%. The recidivism rate in the general population? 68%.
We do not know how to empathize and build the world without the arts. It's downfall is why democracy is in free fall. If you want to save it, put the arts first. Every zip code should have full time artists.
Now is a good time of year to sort through your go bag, swap out the medications with unexpired ones, wash the clothing if you're allergic to dust, etc 😊👍🏼
Don't forget to include plenty of face masks! For you and everyone else 😷
That's interesting, we didn't really have anything like that when I was in infosec. It was more about trying to set up meaningful policies, and also running automated checks (which we all wrote in-house).
We also did more boring stuff like ID provisioning and reconciliation (against the master list of ids on the literal mainframe). Different era. XD
God, it was nice, though. You'd walk in to work in the morning, grab literal printouts from nightly reports, grab a coffee or soda, and check stuff off for a couple hours before anything really crazy started happening for the day. That pace was gone by 2004 or so, and I can't imagine what it's like NOW. XD
A5: I had a few pants in my early twenties that had colorful triangular patches in them on the inside right hem from when I was negligent and hadn't cuffed my pants. These days instead of forgetting to cuff them, I forget to uncuff them. :P
