@EVDHmn @ParadeGrotesque @RickiTarr it doesn't. Biological systems are robust against changes, where as human made systems tend to be brittle.

@EVDHmn @ParadeGrotesque @RickiTarr even air gaps don't work so well anymore. Look what happens if you try to run your own nuclear centrifuges. Or connect a computer to change the biometrics on those locks.

1. Computer security is DIFFICULT.
2. Microsoft.
3. Defenders need to be perfect all the time. Attackers need only to be lucky once.
4. Connecting everything to a giant computer network is a bad idea. A very very very bad idea.
5. Microsoft.
6. Can't remember the ratio, but yeah, 1000 lines of code = 100 bugs, 25% to 50% of which may have security implications.
7. We can make it secure, but it would cost 400% more, and we would have a release every 3 years.
8. Microsoft.

@Mastodon @mellifluousbox @Gargron so Microsoft owns the mastadon finance team? Your kicking back a monthly fee to the "linux is cancer" team?

@fedora not sure how the two "yes" options differ, but a @frameworkcomputer certainly would be be recommended

Just replaced a handful mentions of Kbaud and Mbaud references in the Newton Glossary with Kbps and Mbps, respectively. Not sure how baud rates ended up in there in the first place.
