Third party password managers always were a massive insecure scam

This is how the $XRP cofounder lost hundreds of millions

— Some things really MUST be done by the operating system or platform itself, batteries-included,

because there are perverse incentives if you just let the market decide

Same goes for Ethereum’s anti-batteries-included approach, which is finally wrecking them today

Huge number of things that are technically easy to do — but 3rd parties are incentivized to do them horribly

Some things really have to be paid for by the platform itself — as they are the only ones incentivized to do it right

Would say there are cases where high-initiative can be bad

= Super sloppy people, when it involves a task that is very not forgiving to sloppiness

Not enough spare initiative find a proper quote now, so here’s a random related quote

No wait, remembered the proper quote, Hammerstein-Equord’s four officer categories

🄳🄾🄾🄼🄿🄾🅂🅃🄸🄽🄶

German General Kurt Von Hammerstein-Equord’s four officer categories:

1) the clever
2) the industrious
3) the lazy
4) the stupid.

“I divide my officers into four classes as follows: the clever, the industrious, the lazy, and the stupid. Each officer always possesses two of these qualities. Those who are clever and industrious I appoint to the General Staff. Use can, under certain circumstances, be made of those who are stupid and lazy. The man who is clever and lazy qualifies for the highest leadership posts. He has the requisite nerves and the mental clarity for difficult decisions. But whoever is stupid and industrious must be got rid of, for he is too dangerous.”

— Von Hammerstein, 1933

“You can use the brilliant but lazy man as a strategist, a brilliant but energetic man as a Chief of Staff, but God help you with a dumb but energetic man.”

— Gen Douglas McArthur

I.e. there is a good time when not to be industriuous

= When you’re retarded

*Unless we’re in a hot bull market.

Where in a sea of spam, the biggest problem becomes standing out from the spam

And the answer is hand drawn ads

Nice looking ads have no value. It’s the most easily faked thing on the planet.

Nice looking ads are the bargaining chip of the man who has no other chips.
