SEC did not have 2FA enabled: X safety team on fake Bitcoin ETF post https://cointelegraph.com/news/sec-twitter-account-hacked-2fa-x-reveals

It never ceases to amaze me how trivial it is to get temporary control over a phone number, *or* that given how trivial it is that anyone trusts it for any kind of verification, and so as hilarious it is that the SEC didn't have 2FA set up, it's rather rich for X to claim it's nothing to do with them when they choose to trust a demonstrably unreliable method of proving ownership....

I don't mind the idea of charging for a *quality* service the least bit. But that requires offering a quality service *first*.

This is what happens to your brain when you read computer code www.zdnet.com

> "The areas of the MD network that were activated by reading code weren't the parts called on for maths, leaving an open question as to whether programming should be taught as a maths-based skill or a language-based skill." They tested with Python, so this doesn't really surprise me. I suspect strongly my own experience that testing with Python both under-estimates the language involvement vs. more linguistically expressive languages but also significantly under-estimates the maths involvement relative to more formal languages, especially function and array languages. There's a marked separation between developers who see maths as essential to programming vs. those who see it as a language thing. That they recruited from MIT, Tufts and immediate surroundings may well also affect their results. Would be interesting to see a broader study.
