"all 16 digits" implies that there aren't any more digits of pi, which isn't true. Just FYI.

Why is it a terrible idea?

I mean, the domestic businesses are the ones who own Congress and are using it to get rid of a competitor.

MMO achievements aren't generally designed for it to be feasible for a single player to finish all of them. MMOs are designed to be games that you play forever, or at least until they shut the servers down (and sometimes long after that; look at City of Heroes). Because of that, achievements are more like things to have to work towards if there's nothing else you want to go for until the next content update comes out.

"All PvE achievements" is a huge undertaking, even if you're just talking about the core game; there are things in there like Fractal God, which will take probably a year or so of dedicated grinding, and God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals, which will require finishing a huge number of achievements in a totally different game. I've been playing since a year after launch, and I'm nowhere close to having all the core achievements.

SMS-based can be intercepted, while app-based are calculated on your phone. If you're using SMS -based, all someone needs to do is take over your phone, and they're getting your 2FA codes. Here's how easy that is: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lc7scxvKQOo

If you're pulling on a rope really hard, don't wrap it around your hand to get a better grip. If it starts to pull away from you, you won't be able to let go, and if someone runs up to help and starts hauling on the end, your hand is going to be in a world of pain.

Mint is super comfy. Garuda is cool. Pop_OS! is as annoying to use as it is to type.

Is the market actually bad at the moment, though? We've been trying to fill one of the vacant positions on my team, and the offers we've extended have been declined for other options. That makes it seem to me like candidates have plenty of options at the moment.

Excessively rigid horse armor?

I think I'm good as far as job security goes, so that's a plus. I should ramp up the job hunt I suppose. Already trying to study for the CISSP after work though and I am a big fan of having down time to unwind.

Hey all! I'm trying to figure out where I go next in this career. I'm working at a mid sized company that is owned by a company that is owned by another company. Started out as a software dev about right years ago and spent a lot of time as a security champion; finally moved to the InfoSec team about two years ago. It's a small InfoSec team: three people total. So I do a lot of stuff: contact reviews, vendor security assessments, firewall log monitoring, code reviews, run security trainings, coordinate external pen tests, gather SOC 2 evidence, incident response... Lots of stuff.

I like most of the work well enough (though the GRC stuff is not my favorite), but recently my boss and my teammate quit, so our team of three is down to me. There's some support available from the security team of the parent organization, and a very competent contractor, but it's largely just me.

What I'm wondering mostly is: if I go elsewhere, what kind of role am I looking for? I feel like this Jack-of-all-security-trades thing I've got going on can't be super normal, can it? And also, is my current situation something I should embrace, and take the opportunity to run the InfoSec team? Having someone with two years of security experience at the wheel seems suboptimal to me, but maybe it's worth doing for the experience?

My ideal would be working with a team of five or six, with people I can learn a lot from; my concern is that right now, most of the learning I can do is from my own mistakes.
