Sympathy for the interviewer. Well guess what, you're not going to find much luck pulling this yarn. Some interviewers get the fist. And that's just the way it goes. If I'm supposed to play toady to this dog and pony…
So some self-important "tech luminary" claims to have engineered a secret weapon feedback loop, and it's so incredible that it hacked everyone's brain, and wowee, he's so smart. It's easy to pin post-hoc…
Thanks! I could probably write something, but the world wouldn't let me enjoy it. So I languish in pointless tech jobs producing executable web fluff that lives between the browser and the database ('middleware'), that…

Not to mention... searching... Google? Really. Does that sound like something anyone would ever expect to return fruitful results enabling criminal activity? Does anyone imagine this being the sort of thing a person…
I think the level of security provided by passwords or password managers is probably of little import, when confronted by a nation-state actor, and indeed a top tier nation-state actor, with nigh unlimited resources,…
