@RoryAlsop ....

@RoryAlsop I meant, like always. Sometimes, maybe.

Rory Alsop

@kalina if that was a muffled chortle, then I'm a happy bunny!

kalina

maybe it would have been normally

Rory Alsop

@kalina well - I tried :-)

schroeder

is this guy for real?

Q: Is there still future in computer security?

I am currently a student in computer science that has a passion in security. As I learned the basics, I realised that the internet is more secure than a couple of years ago and basics exploitation technics does not usually work anymore. By secure, I mean new websites and new networks uses new t...

career

AviD

does it matter?

maybe he is for real drunk

maybe he is for real high

maybe he is for real @Simon

Rory Alsop

23:06

who wants to close it down

kalina

so judgemental

I've already flagged it

AviD

nah, that one was just gratuitious

kalina

and voted

I don't care what you do next

since you're moderators I'll assume you'll make the wrong choice anyway

Rory Alsop

2 flags - enough for me :-)

gubbed

AviD

@kalina as moderator, I propose we make @kalina a room owner.

kalina

23:08

which would be the wrong choice in every instance except you putting the room into timeout

AviD

@RoryAlsop yeah, but weak close reason :-(

kalina

@AviD see what I said about the wrong choice?

HMMMM

AviD

it IS about infosec, just so completely clueless and baseless it doesnt even count as a real question.

kalina

and you instantly mocked me

AviD

@kalina yup :-(

kalina

23:08

yet it turned out that I was correct

Rory Alsop

bob - we do have a bunch of questions on careers in security, but making your decision on whether you should join an expanding industry with a shortage of skilled folks is off topic here — Rory Alsop ♦ 14 secs ago

WTHAUOSHDPUAHNSdas

Rory Alsop

@AviD none were right

kalina

oh I misread that your

AviD

@RoryAlsop eh eh yeah okay fine

kalina

23:09

@RoryAlsop unclear what you're asking

AviD

oh yeah, forgot that NaRQ is not a reason anymore. What she said.

Rory Alsop

@kalina sort of, but not quite. I think we do know what he is asking. He is just wrong

kalina

and thus it's unclear what he's asking

AviD

"Your question makes no sense, and your assumptions are ridiculous. I have no idea what you're asking here."

Rory Alsop

@AviD perfect - you should leave him that as a comment

AviD

23:11

@RoryAlsop no, we know what he thinks he's asking. that doesnt mean we know what the question is.

Gilles

Well, according to research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/cormac/papers/2009/… we should all be out of a job

AviD

@RoryAlsop heh, thats just kicking him when he's down

Gilles

but since economic decisions are hardly ever rational, I predict lucrative careers for security professionals in the next few decades

AviD

@Gilles no, it just means salaries should go down

kalina

I do find the bigger screen on the oneplus two to be better for browsing though

AviD

23:23

I'm still bothered by the popularity of the misconceptions behind that question. :-(

Mark Buffalo

@AviD you're mom

AviD

a dad, actually

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag He's mom.

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo That's not really better

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag You're dad.

David Freitag

23:38

@MarkBuffalo I'm nobody's dad

Mark Buffalo

@DavidFreitag I'm son.

David Freitag

@MarkBuffalo Of a bitc- naaah just kidding your mom is a nice lady.

Mark Buffalo

Joke's on you.

David Freitag

That's not all that was on me.

How do you think I came to learn your mom was such a nice lady?

AviD

This is awesome. /cc @RоryMcCune
