Interesting quote from "Windigo Island: A Novel (Cork O'Connor Mystery Series Book 14)"

Hi – I'm reading "Windigo Island: A Novel (Cork O'Connor Mystery Series Book 14)" by William Kent Krueger and wanted to share this quote with you.

"When people of European descent"—here she glanced at Cork and Jenny, the only ones among those present who didn't look Ojibwe—"came to this area, they shattered our culture. Sometimes it was because of ignorance, but more often it was because of greed. And this brokenness, this wounding of our spirit as a people, has never been completely healed. We continue to struggle with it today. One of the terrible, terrible effects of that brokenness is violence, particularly against our women. Our men are sometimes a part of that violence, and white men are certainly a part of that violence. Our women have been sold from the beginning, traded as a commodity. We're dealing with decades of trauma forced on our people."

One Data Scientist’s Quest to Quash Misinformation | WIRED

One Data Scientist’s Quest to Quash Misinformation | WIRED: "They discussed creating their own playbook for tracking and stopping misinformation. If someone launched a campaign, they wanted to know how it worked. If people worldwide started reciting the same strange theory, they wanted a sense of who was behind it. As hackers, they were used to taking things apart to see how they worked—using artifacts lurking in code to trace malware back to a Russian crime syndicate, say, or reverse engineering a �denial-of-service attack to find a way to defend against it. Misinformation, they realized, could be treated the same way: as a cybersecurity problem."

Alan Turing, undecidable problems, and malware

Alan Turing, undecidable problems, and malware: "In 1983, Turing Award winner Ken Thompson argued that an evil compiler could automatically insert a secret backdoor into every program it generates, and that no one could know about it because every “trace of malice” in the compiler’s source code could be removed. The moral, Ken wrote, is that you cannot trust code that you do not “totally” create yourself – including the compiler."

Tesla (or Google) and the risk of massively distributed physical terrorist attacks: "In the real world, the whole of our critical software infrastructure is practically impervious to any form of attack, and, if nothing else, companies take the ethical responsibilities inherent in their control over data and systems with the seriousness it demands, even lobbying for higher levels of regulation than less technically sophisticated public and governments demand."
