How to perfectly answer the "tell me about yourself" interview questionI've gotten my jobs on this question alone. Rock solid answer everytime. "I'm a go getter who doesn't take no for an answer. Mostly because I don't take rejection well, but I do tend to send flowers to the hospital bed of those who have said No to me and lived to tell about it. By the way, when do I start?"

The next big security threat is staring us in the face. Tackling it is going to be toughUh oh, I've been found out. I guess a 20 year career as a "developer/programmer" or whatever it is people on this site do wasn't all bad. Anytime you can get companies to pay you for pretending to be something that long is living the dream. As far as I'm concerned C# is a musical note, java is coffee, rust is whats eating away at my car, and python? well thats just snake oil.

Criminals are now posing as security companies to trick you into installing malwareIn my best New Jersey accent "Yeah dis is Hal from two bruddas security systems. We heard that youse guys might need some critical patches ya know, so weez got a few software protection tiers youse might be interested in. We got the underware package where things got messy, but we come in and clean up the tighty whiteez, computas good as new. We got the silverware package that offers just enough protection for all yo github forks, we got da tupperware package to keep youse software contained from outside sources, and top notch hardware package where me and muh boys pack some heat and hunt down the nefarious guys through somewhat mostly legal means. We just need a little access to your servers and a godfather all access password to get it setup."

There's no such thing as a one-line-changeI like that sign that says we offer 3 kinds of service Good, Cheap and Fast but you can only pick 2. Good and Cheap won't be fast Good and Fast won't be cheap Fast and Cheap won't be good.

Muting your mic doesn’t stop big tech from recording your audioMy only worry is that someone is going to package up these meetings and sell them as cures for insomnia, which would infringe on my patent pending idea, but I don't have the lawyers to fight big tech. I may have to grudgingly accept a seven figure settlement with single digit royalties.
