bizarre. it's even in the name, "leak". very weird to pretend there weren't a lot of people who thought a lab worker contracted it and passed it to the food market


This looks great. I've seen a few things in rest of comments but if anyone could share anything similar about networking or computer science topics in general I'd really appreciate it. It's weird looking back I learned so much stuff as a kid in the 90s that I wish I knew better now, from trying to be a wannabe hacker and always breaking stuff I had to figure out how to fix if I wanted to use it again. I never went to college for Comp Science or worked in IT or coding but now I want to make a career change. Even though I always had some personal projects or occasional freelance type web dev, I guess the more complicated stuff was abstracted away over the years and it was easier to do more with knowing less.


Same here. 1998 was the first time I touched a pc. Next 3 to 4 years were c & c++. Then WYSIWYG html editors. Then php. Then javascript & html n static stuff. No formal education related to computers. Although I am comfortable with my current job, but somewhere in the back of my mind I wish I was in IT, earning IT money.
