I asked because I've heard more than once that a company either stretched the truth or outright lied on these questionnaires. So stretching the truth could be: Do you adhere to NIST? The truth could be: "well not exactly but that&

Are there any legal issues if one were to be untruthful/lie on security questionnaires?

I certainly was not trying to argue that. And I said it was my own experience (serendipity). I also agree with what you're saying.

I could certainly see that happening. But I would lump them in with being educated. Since they most likely did do a 9-5 4-5 days per week bootcamp (assuming). I've encountered people with masters degrees unable to do very basic develop

anecdotal disclaimer -- I think I've worked with more brilliant people with no degrees or uncompleted education. They just had more drive and do not let anything hold them back. They do not need to be told what to do. Not saying that t

This was great, bravo! While I am not necessarily the audience intended. I've been following some Notebook development. I have always thought of it as convoluted and pedantic. I don't mean to distract from some very solid and well

I certainly get it. Zsh and the like offer some really nice functionality missing from standard bash. However that muscle memory is lost. Zsh etc. certainly cool for your own tinker box. Not good when dealing with lots of disparate systems.

I'll except that statement in the sense that it reduces Aikido down to interpretive dance and not (applicable) combat practices.

Aikido is that fantasy martial arts. The kind that only works when the opponents are in on the ruse. Blockchain is like the Aikido of technology.

There is a security issue with using AD/OpenLDAP. That being passwords. An example is you can debug/trace the SSH process and see(log) passwords in clear text. Now of course this is both a trust and a escalated privilege issue. Bu

You have the wrong idea. A better example of what you're calling "free market" would be dentistry or something like Lasik surgery. You can shop around and figure out the prices because they are very much apparent since you pa

I can tell you this. We (the company I work for) would not hire you as a programmer. Without a CS degree. Now I'm assuming you did not go back to get a CS degree. If not you have now ruled yourself out of a lot of opportunities. Ultima

At what cost? $100k in debt and delayed start at life? Again if all things are equal. Uni is free, sure why not. This argument is invalid too. We can say most that go to college are better off thus the net positive results.
