Love that @WeAreTripsmiths have launched the 'Guy Walters Collection', which makes me sound like a fashion brand.
Do join me on either – or both! – of these trips:
Prague 1939-1989, 19-23 Oct 26

This is the tragedy of the commons, online security edition. It makes sense for each of these companies individually to make their sites hyper-secure, but becomes intolerable to the consumer.
I think it is known as Anderson's rule, named after the late Ross Anderson, which is that any system must either be vulnerable to hacking or intolerable to use.
I've been paying some bills. I am absolutely certain that with passwords, codes and approval codes included each one takes longer than it did 30 years ago.. when we just wrote some cheques.. and dropped them in the post box on the way to the shop.

Today is St Wenceslas Day.
The legend says anyone who wears the Crown of St Wenceslas without the right to do so will die within a year.
Another legend says Reinhard Heydrich placed the crown on his head in Nov 1941. Seven months later he was dead.

'A satisfying sex life is not a vaccination against fascism. Yet had Hitler been capable of loving someone without trying to own them, he might have learnt to become a different man.'

Geli snuffed herself out because her uncle didn't pay attention to her. Same happened to Unity Miford, Hitler's British It-Girl. The latter of course wasn't successful, from a certain point of view, to do 'the job' properly.
