zhaso··on Inside the Massive Alleged AT&T Data Breach
I got an interesting scam attempt the other day which was very similar to the one described in this AT&T forum post: https://forums.att.com/conversations/wireless-account/call-f...

Seeing this now, it makes a lot of sense how the scammers would know to target me.

tl;dr is that some scammers knew I had an AT&T account, and called posing as some AT&T branch that could only speak Chinese (ostensibly serving NYC Chinatown). I think they're targeting 2nd-gen Chinese speakers and forcing them into likely broken Chinese to throw them off guard.

zhaso··on 25 Gbit/s internet as a normal customer
While yes, the bandwidth is certainly enough and comparable to fast (but not fastest) consumer-grade storage these days (2-3 GB/s), I'd be more concerned with latency issues as NVMe tends to have latency on the order of microseconds (so ~1/1000th that of a very low single-digit internet latency).

It shouldn't be there
zhaso··on Learning Synths
He's not saying he can't afford it. He's saying it's a lot of money. I'd imagine when you make minimum wage, it's a lot of money even if you can afford it.

I make typical FANG SWE income and I still consider it to be a lot..

Doing this at Facebook's scale is very much not "pretty simple".
