My son did something amazing today. He got the fake email "We've hacked your computer and spied on you doing bad stuff and browsing bad sites. Send us bitcoin and tell no-one. ".
His heart dropped, and his first instinct was to call me and tell me what happened and ask for help.
It was obviously fake, and he didn't do anything wrong, but my heart was filled that his first reaction was to call me and to tell me something happened and for me to help.
Communicate to your kids, I have emphasized multiple times with my kids that no matter what situation you are in, especially on cyber - let me know and the bad folks don't want a pissed off HackingDave Dad on them and I'm always there for them.
Just got this text as typing:

hot take but I don’t think ppl in their teens / early 20’s should care about saving money. You should reinvest it all into upskilling yourself. No ETF is going to give you a better return than the wealth you’ll create when you become highly skilled.
where to spend your money, instead of saving it:
- funding your startup
- learning: books, courses, tutors
- health: high quality food, gym, PT
- time: cleaners, uber, meal delivery, a home at a convenient location
- productivity: high quality chair, desk, monitors, laptop
- openai bills

You read that right. We are starting to explore cross-platform Swift on Point-Free. This series is going to be a must watch!
Cross-platform Swift is here! We are going to use the same feature in vastly different situations: SwiftUI, UIKit, and *beyond* Apple’s ecosystem, starting with a third party view paradigm: @AirbnbEng’s Epoxy.

Benefits of a split keyboard - I can still work when the cat decides he needs to sit right where the middle of the keyboard used to be 😆
