  • These are small potatoes to the real problems.

    I worked at Dollar Tree a year ago and got a letter saying my SSN and birthday was breached by Lockton. This is the second time this has happened and it’s ridiculous they’re still holding on to my data even though I never consented.

    If simply functioning in society is going to require me to buy lifetime identity threat protection then I don’t know how privacy isn’t a luxury. Simple: don’t live.













  • It’s extremely flooded at the moment. Going to any state college you will see how many other kids decided this was the path for them. If you like it, it makes sense. It’s extremely hard to get that kind of job (a programmer) unless you really study and work outside of school and actively apply to internships. A computer science degree is not necessarily limited to programming, however, and do not feel ashamed if once you come to college you feel like this is not for you, because there are always opportunities outside of software engineering such as network engineering or system administration.
