Tonight's recovery meeting featured another very familiar round of men being honest about their own frailties and fears, one of them breaking into tears in love and gratitude and astonishment, and...well, it's kind of amazing how commonplace this is in my life.

Men, if you learn how to get honest and open and vulnerable, really share with someone who isn't your wife, girlfriend or mother, *you will be unlocking the door to your cage*. Also, you'll realize you were in a cage. It's freedom.

@scott Too right! I have an old reference PDF for such things
No serious person could write this line without understanding it's both meaningless and deceptive. There is no such thing as confirmation of data destruction under these circumstances and the claim here is an attempt to provide reassurance to those affected where honesty about the limits of their knowledge would have been better. #Instructure #Canvas

Once again a copy of War And Peace has defeated input validation during a blitz test 😈

It's not that people will do this on purpose, it's just a really easy to way to check if your system actually has limits and whether it tells your users how to recover.

@200ok maybe they’ll be emboldened by this experience and maybe free money will fall from the sky and…

I've started as the ABC’s national AI tech reporter, after 5 unreal years at Crikey. AI is one of the biggest stories of our time. The sheer amount of money, influence and hype makes it ripe for critical, nuanced and accessible reporting.

Hello #parents — I imagine most of you have received some kind of communication from your kids' schools about the #Instructure / #Canvas data breach. I'm collecting examples of how schools have communicated the issue to parents and students (and *if* they've communicated directly to students).

Shoot me an email if you have anything you could share: [email protected]

@simon I anticipate disappointment whenever I watch it and yet it’s always worse
@200ok sounds productive to me
