I know for a fact that they also had Splunk ES bought, built, and running, then the CISO had them turn off the alerts because they were "too noisy" and sure enough, they could see all this happening when it was retroactively inspected.

There are so many things wrong in that sentence but my most glaring question is: why on earth was she even receiving the alerts? That's so far below her level. So, there's more here than just the cert issue. There's also just a complete disregard for a secure mindset from the person that is supposed to be setting that mindset in the culture, along with what sounds like micro-managing to a state of no-managing.

I really can't stand the keyboard. Been using it the last year and a half and it is definitely causing joint pain. I ended up buying an external keyboard to use with it most the time. Also, I want my escape key back. Not having tactile feedback is annoying and frustrating, especially given how much I'm in vim everyday. Just go back to the old keyboard please, you can even keep the touch bar if you must but I will not buy another until the keyboard is made useable and not just flat for no reason beyond making the computer slightly thinner, which is of no value to me.

>>After all, the only people actually working on alternatives to Google and Facebook are the alt-right who have been de-platformed.

That's just false. You paint this as either one or the other missing the point that someone like me might like many.
