My Heart Is Bleeding

Four years of computer science education vs. one Android kernel vulnerability that says "You are now a developer." The duality of modern tech! Somewhere, a CS professor is crying into their algorithms textbook while script kiddies are getting root access with zero knowledge of Big O notation. That security hole has been letting people "become developers" since 2014, and Google's probably still marking it as "will fix in next release" on their Jira board.

Oh sweet summer child! That "white dot" is the file being modified indicator—basically screaming "HEY, YOU HAVEN'T SAVED YOUR CHANGES YET!" But the real horror show? This person is casually displaying their plaintext password file for all of Reddit to see. Nothing says "hack me please" like showing off your passwords.csv with actual credentials. Somewhere, a security engineer is having heart palpitations while david13, john87, and friends are about to learn a valuable lesson about information sharing.

Just trying to set up a new Windows machine when suddenly OneDrive appears with a knife, demanding your files like some cloud storage mafia enforcer. "Nice documents you got there. Would be a shame if they were... automatically synced." The eternal struggle between wanting local control and Microsoft's relentless cloud integration. Some of us just want to store files on our actual computers without paying cloud protection money.

Security teams spend months crafting elaborate phishing tests, only to have them defeated by developers who instinctively delete anything that isn't a GitHub notification or pizza delivery confirmation. The irony is palpable—you can't fail a security test if you never engage with it in the first place. The ultimate security through negligence. Meanwhile, the security team is patting themselves on the back thinking their training worked. Nope, just developer apathy winning again.

The pun that launched a thousand security breaches! This wordplay masterpiece combines "ran somewhere" with "ransomware" - because what do hackers do after deploying their malicious code? They don't stick around for the aftermath, they run . Meanwhile, their ransomware stays behind, encrypting files and demanding Bitcoin payments like an uninvited houseguest who locks all your cupboards and charges you to use your own silverware. The perfect crime - terrible for the victim, but the perpetrator is already halfway to a non-extradition country with surprisingly good Wi-Fi.

The security industry in a nutshell, folks. You hire "analysts" who confirm they're analysts, confirm they get paid to analyze, but when they actually find something—like a Log4j vulnerability that needs immediate patching—management's response is "Nah, P0 incident? That's an EOD problem." Nothing quite like hiring security experts only to ignore their expertise when it requires actual work. The classic corporate cycle: pay for security, ignore security recommendations, wonder why you got breached. Then blame the security team who warned you six months ago. For the uninitiated, Log4j was that delightful little vulnerability from 2021 that had security teams working through Christmas while executives were sipping eggnog and asking "can't we just deal with it after the holidays?"
