  • Don’t know why you would jump to that conclusion straight away. Mín billable hours and time spent thinking on the problem is a thing. Taking regular 5m breaks (pomodoro technique) also helps with getting things done and so on and people should be paid for it.

    I mean, you should technically stop the clock if the wife calls to ask if there’s pasta at home but nobody really cares.

    Adding significant amount of hours to a report would not be ethical but adjusting 10% to get paid for time laying in bed thinking about problems is still ethical from my point of view. It’s way more value than most meetings.

    Your cultural context way vary.



  • SS7 protocol for 2G and 3G is vulnerable to man in the middle attack, easy to spy on people with. They use a walled garden approach al the primary defence mechanism and you can gain access through in for the low low price of couple of thousands of USD.

    Couple of exploits are intercepting or monitoring calls and texts and triangulating position by checking what cell towers are in range.











  • One of the things LNG has over coal is that it’s very easy to turn off and on in case cheaper sources aren’t producing enough. LNG plays much better with renewables and coal also produces ton of pollution and particulate matter. It’s the lesser of two evils when there are no methane leaks.

    Methane leaks will still punch the climate in the gut so any leaks are unacceptable and all methane gas needs to be accounted for.

    Both obviously need to be replaced with renewables and large cost efficient energy storage. Hydrogen is attractive since energy doesn’t degrade over time, pumped hydro for weekly to monthly high quantity and power, flywheels/lithium batteries to stabilise the grid frequency, heat storage with district heating for households and redux flow batteries with massive containers for winter/summer differences.
