I lead #cybersecurity, risk, and #privacy teams. I'm interested in law and politics, though I'd really like to be less interested in those things. 
I love reading, making, traveling, and being Bluey's dad!

This hospital gives you a clever little puke bag if you are in the ER experiencing nausea but uh ... does it have to be clear? 😬
Who could have foreseen that the Wheatus song from the American Pie soundtrack would still be a jam like 20 years later?

Any US business exec who went along with this plan must be charged in the next non-Trump admin and all profits from this corrupt endeavor must be seized and returned to the people of Venezuela.

What’s crazy about living in 2026 is that every ridiculous futuristic dystopian 80s/90s film seems totally plausible now.
Payment systems here are superior to those in the US in every way but one - you always have to send a proof of payment manually via email to whoever you're paying. I'm not entirely even clear on why except that they must not get an automated notification of payment or something, or perhaps those managing payments don't actually have access to the payment systems. IDK but it's silly.
People keep using the term "AIpocalypse" and it's impossible to not read it as this at first.
