I don't use iOS but there's a thing.Apple certifies the apps that can be sold on App Store, while on Android you can find all sort of crap.Not surprisingly, most malware around is targeting Android devices right now, because that's where the money is.People can pay bills with a phone (if they're so out of their minds to do that), perform banking transactions (you can scan a check, send it to your bank and pay with it...).Why's that? Android devices aren't as hardened as computers do.As to macOS, most vulnerabilities are proofs of concept.There's no real viruses for Mac around, because infections can't work the same way.It's mostly adware/spyware/Trojans/worms, which have been using vulnerabilities hidden mostly in Java and Flash.You don't enable Java (I haven't done it in years) and that stuff can't be executed.Then UNIX/Linux systems are HIERARCHICAL.If you don't have permissions to a file, you can pretty much shoot yourself: you're not gonna access it.You don't click Continue such as in Windows, you need to enter an administrative password (and also a username, if you're on a limited account).What's more, Apple has introduced System Integrity Protection so no one, even having root privileges, can now tamper with macOS system files anymore.Thanks for the A2A, but I'm not very interested in these philosophical dissertations.Use what you think can be most suitable for you.As to myself, I stick with UNIX/Linux and I'm very happy this way.

I’m not sure if this makes me believe in the afterlife and/or spirit world, however, it certainly makes me believe something more is going on than meets the eye.I won’t go into great detail (mostly due to chronic pain and the fact I have an appointment I have to attend shortly) but suffice to say, I visited a spiritual healer about 6 years ago for my chronic depression and anxiety. There was, and still is, a lot going on in my life and this woman had been recommended to me by my stepdaughter.So, I made the appointment and off I went a few days later. I didn’t know what, if anything, I would experience but having tried so many other things to help, all to no avail, I just expected this would be the same. I was wrong.We talked for a while and really hit it off.. I felt like I had known her forever. After our chat, she asked me to lie down on a massage table and started performing a form of Reiki on me. I was just lying there with my eyes closed wondering what, if anything, would happen and just ‘went with the flow’.A few minutes into the massage/healing, I noticed the healer’s hands on my legs when she lifted my legs slightly. I was, at this point, lying face down on a massage table but I was fully awake. It’s been a bone of contention of mine for years that I absolutely cannot sleep AT ALL during the day and so I just lay there, feeling the healer’s hands on my legs, when all of a sudden I felt a hand on my head, moving slowly backwards and forwards.My first thought was that it was the healer’s hand until I realised both her hands were now on my feet. I then figured someone must have come into the room (her office is actually an outside studio at her place of residence) and I didn’t hear them.. but I quickly ruled that out when I realised there was no way anyone could have come into the room without me hearing - there were bells on the door that rang whenever someone entered.All of these thoughts occurred in a millisecond, but the healer’s hands were still on my feet and the hand on my head kept comforting me. I could FEEL the fingers.. it wasn’t just an itch or a faint feeling of a hand.. it was a complete hand moving backwards and forwards.I’ve never had anything like that occur before or since, but I KNOW what I felt. The healer later confirmed that a Guide of mine had dropped in to visit and to help me and she had seen her at my head.The truth is that I don’t know what to believe, I just know *something* happened. As a matter of fact, my appointment today is with this very same healer. I’ve seen her a few times since but nothing like the above has ever occurred again.Does this prove an afterlife; a spirit world? I have no concrete answers. All I know for certain is that something happened that I have no rational explanation for. I’m not trying to convince anyone of anything with this story (and I know many people will believe they can answer this rationally.. that’s okay), just sharing what to this day still makes me wonder if there is more to this life than meets the eye.

A number of years ago I testified on behalf of the defence as an expert witness in a Crown v. the accused in an invitation to sexual touching and possession of child pornography case in a Canadian criminal court.Those are pretty serious charges and someone that engages in such behaviour should be separated from society for an extended period of time and then monitored afterwards.The police investigation started with a complaint by the mother to NCMEC that the accused had tried to lure her daughter into sexual relationship.When the Toronto police obtained a warrant and seized the accused’s computer they found evidence that he used the IRC online name in the mother’s complaint and they found hundreds of child porn images. Resulting in the charges.So why would I act for the defence?When I was first asked, I was given all kinds of assurances that the accused was innocent even though the police had seized his computer and found hundreds of images and had evidence that he had chatted online with an underage girl.I explained that I would examine the images of the hard disk that the police forensic team had prepared and I would examine the evidence submitted by the girl’s mother and then make my decision as to what assistance I would provide.At first it was extremely challenging to perform my examination. The police would not release a copy of the disk image, and rather insisted that I use their computer equipment using their software at their premises.I tried working in a tiny windowless room at one of the precincts on their laptop running their software - a copy of Encase on a Windows machine. Yuk. Severely limiting. Not only that the officer entered the room every 5 minutes to ‘chat’ and I would stop what I was doing, and turn the laptop away from him.What a joke. They claimed that I could not be in possession of the image as that would be a crime. Uh.. no it wouldn’t. The act specifically allows possession.Section 163.(6) No person shall be convicted of an offence under this section if the act that is alleged to constitute the offence(a) has a legitimate purpose related to the administration of justice or to science, medicine, education or art; and(b) does not pose an undue risk of harm to persons under the age of eighteen years.The defence lawyer was able to win a motion allowing me proper access to the evidence and I was given copies of the drive image to examine using my own tools and software. However the forensic team Sgt told me that he disagreed with the ruling and could have me arrested if I was ‘caught’ with the evidence.I knew it to be bs, but for quite some some time while working on the case I kept a copy of that section of the criminal code in my car and in my office.Since the girl’s mother has presented evidence of what she purported to be logs of an online chat I requested an image of her hard drive as well. The police refused as that they claimed would create a hardship for the victim.Hardship - Huh?I testified in a motion that since she was out of the country, she was in the U.S., that the police in that state could assist if require and all that really needed to be done, if both the Crown and the defence agreed, was to take the machine to a local computer shop and ask them to install a new drive of the same size and copy the contents across so they could continue to use their computer. Then to put the original disk in a box and ship it to the good Sgt of the Toronto Police along with a signed statement from the technician that he did that without making any deliberate changes to the original contents.The judge was pretty agreeable to that but the crown argued against it. I testified that it was the best evidence but I was prepared to offer my assessment of the printed logs and my assessment of the transcript of the mother’s testimony.The judge ended hearing only my assessment of that. No copy of the victim’s disk was ever obtained, nor required.In the end, I had the image of the accused’s computer and photocopies of the victim’s log and the transcript of the mother’s testimony.Let’s start with the ‘log’. It was doctored. It was not a real log from IRC. It certainly looked like one, but there were inconsistencies from what an actual log produced by the IRC client she was using and what was presented. Moreover, she ended up referring to a different conversation log in her testimony, one that had time stamps. The one originally submitted to NCMEC had no timestamp. That was a setting in that software. On or off. Moreover in the testimony she and the girl testified that they had never chatted with the accused before that conversation, yet..At the start of the log there was a line item..“nickname of the accused” is online.That meant that the user of that IRC client had created an alert to notify them when the accused came online in IRC. Interesting.I proposed to the court that a more likely scenario was that the mother had set a trap for the accused. Set the alert so she would know he when he was online, enter into a chat with him, and then fabricate a conversation.edit added: this gave the mother the IP address and a date and time when he was online. Subsequent warrant and examination of the accused’s ISP’s records identified him as the user of that IP address at the time.To demonstrate, I fabricated a fictitious log for the court involving an online chat between Hamlet and Horatio. With time stamps.I read Hamlet in open court. How cool is that?It had also been presented into evidence that the mother worked for a local ISP and had taken some computer forensic courses.I testified that I could not theorize motive for a deception other than perhaps some prior online argument of some unknown nature but that the mother certainly had method and opportunity to deceive.The judge asked me what I would look for if I had access to the mother’s hard drive. I explained how a filing system works and how logs are created with sequential allocations to a file entry and that I would expect to find only one version of a legitimate log, even if copies were made. But I would expect to find multiple versions of this log since I believe it to be true that it was fabricatedThe Crown eventually in his own statements referred to “the less than compelling evidence of the mother”, but the Crown still had the huge amount of irrefutable evidence of the possession charge.Now.. what about those hundreds of child pornography images?Yes, they existed. There were two sets.One set existed in a download directory for IRC. Virtually all were deleted. The ones that weren’t were quite new to the directory. I examined the IRC configuration and found that the accused’s IRC would auto-accept sent files from anyone.This guy’s machine had a huge number of images and files of all description in that directory and it appeared that he would go in maybe once a week and delete everything he did not want and move off what he did.No child pornography images were moved to other directories and the vast majority had already been deleted. I theorized that the ones that were not deleted simply had not been reviewed yet; and moreover the files that were deleted would have become unretrievable over the natural course of operating the computer.Now then, the other set.These were all in the browser cache, and they were virtually all thumbnail images. Hundreds of them. But..When I examined the raw browser history logs I found an interesting timeline.The accused was searching for different music genres for download. Several times during a one session he followed links that appeared to be for downloads of music but were for porn. Porn of every type imaginable.Several of these pages had large numbers of thumbnails. What was interesting is the time spent on the pages before the user attempted to go to another site or page. Seconds.It was also interesting that several of the pages caused new browser windows to open with more porn.In total, there was a 15 minute period on one day when all of the images that the Crown submitted as evidence were downloaded into the cache of the accused’s browser. Moreover it was doubtful that the accused even realized the full extent of the images since as I showed the court that one had to scroll down on the pages to see the thumbnails as across the top were simply more ads for more sites.I also testified that over the natural course of operating the computer these thumbnails would have been deleted by the browser and would have never been retrievable by the user.The judge had more questions for me in his attempt to understand the situation more clearly. The defence lawyer sat back and was feeling pretty good.The Crown and the good Sgt sat there clicking their pens for quite some time.The Crown ended up asking the court for a stay of prosecution in exchange for an undertaking by the accused to promise not to engage in chats with underage girls for the purposes of exploitation.This could have had a terrible ending for the accused. If he could not afford the professional fees that I charged, or could not afford a decent lawyer he would have been found guilty or he would have just plead guilty.A follow up, I saw that Sgt a few days later and he told me he was still positive that the accused was guilty and that I helped a guilty man go free. I asked him if he had any other evidence except that which I showed was all bs, and he said no, but he knew he was guilty. Guilty of what I wondered aloud.Sorry for any typos - written on my phone.

When I was growing up, I often asked myself, what is one thing that I can do today for a better life tomorrow?I would come up with a hundred different answers. I should work out every morning. I should work longer hours. I should find a mentor. I should learn to enjoy life more. I should have a better sense of humor. I should spend more time with family and friends.What I didn’t realize is that they all had one thing in common.I should have focused on improving myself every single day.Now that I’m 32, I’ve finally realized I should have just focused on that one thing. Want to know why?Greatness compounds over time. Over the short term, small improvements may seem…well…small. But over an extended period of time, those small incremental improvements turn into massive transformations that can dramatically alter your life.Let me give you an example:When I was 17, I signed up for an acting class. Every day in class, I worked on being a better actor. I would do speaking exercises, memorize lines and improv with my classmates. This experience taught me how to deliver an amazing presentation and how to capture the hearts and minds of an audience. I can now present to a crowd of over 300 people without blinking an eye.When I was 19, I was a labor foreman at UCLA. I worked hard on becoming the best that I could be at my job. I would sweep up floors, set up venues for events and clean up all the trash after events. This job taught me discipline and gave me an appreciation for hard work. You get results by putting in the work. There are no shortcuts.When I was 21, I was a fundraising representative for a call center. Some days, I would make over 100 calls and receive 100 rejections. Guess what? I stuck with it and soon became the most improved person on the team. One day I raised over $2,500 in donations. This taught me the importance of resilience. I was willing to be resilient because if I could stay up working long hours cleaning up after others (see point #2), then I definitely could learn to handle a little rejection on a sales call.When I was 26, I wrote my first book. I sold less than 50 copies. So what did I do? I spent an entire year writing the best book I possibly could called “The Resume is Dead.” It #1 on the Amazon resumes category and now has over 40,000 Kindle downloads. I was able to experience this because I enjoyed the journey of doing hard work to achieve great results (see point #2).When I was 27, I built 4 top 100 iOS apps in different categories. What most of my friends don’t know is that I had to build 14 apps just to get to those 4 hits. This process taught me the importance of launching and iterating. But I would have never seen it through if I didn’t first learn resilience (See point #3).When I was 29, I first started writing on Quora and one of my answers had 7 upvotes and 584 views. I kept writing anyway. Three years and 141 Quora posts later, I now have 34,000 followers and 11.3 million views. I’ve also been published by Forbes, Inc, Business Insider, Time, Fortune and many more. This taught me the important of taking action, even when I had no experience in that industry or field. Nothing beats diving in and creating your own real life experience. And oh, I learned this because of my app building experience, of course (see point #4).I’m 32 now. After starting two companies and working for some of the most amazing startups and large technology companies in the world, I’m still hungry to make an impact on the world. That’s why I’m now building a company called Habby. It’s designed to help people live healthier and happier lives by setting the right habits with our mobile app. Will it be successful? Who knows. But I do know that all of my hard work on self improvement in the past gives me a real shot at success in the future.I wish I had known this secret when I was younger: If you focus on improving yourself today, that’s the key to a better life tomorrow.What are you waiting for? Get out there and live the best life possible.

Günter Wächtershäuser might be the most important amateur scientist of our era. He made his living as a patent attorney. While doing that he got interested in the origin of life and developed an original and widely respected set of hypotheses about how living things came into being.[1]He had been trained in science, earning a Phd. in organic chemistry in 1965 at the University of Marburg, Germany, and was a postdoc there for more than a year. But then he decided to become an attorney, and began taking law classes while working on his dissertation.He maintained an interest in science and in 1972/3 he read a paper by one of his professors about the RNA world theory of the origin of life. Later on,he met, and became friends with, the famous philosopher of science, Karl Popper. Still later, he became friends with Carl Woese, one of the most important scientists studying the early history of life.Wächtershäuser was an expert in developing friendships with famous people in science. Those people, in turn, helped him get his early papers published in prominent journals, including the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the most prestigious publication of all.Those early publications in 1988 and 1990 made him famous in his field, earning him several awards and, he was finally made an adjunct professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2008. (Adjunct professors are the lowest level of professors in a university.) As of 2012, he continued to maintain his legal business.His early work was entirely theoretical, describing known chemistry and how that might lead to life. He didn’t have access to chemicals or a laboratory. He did have access to the scientific literature and relied on that heavily. Later on, he had collaborators who performed experiments for him.What did he accomplish?Everything in study of the origin of life is complicated. Here’s a simple account.Back then, the two leading hypotheses about the origin of life were:The primordial soup theory said that organic chemicals in lakes or oceans somehow reacted with each other to generate living things.The RNA World theory said that RNA molecules somehow came into being and somehow developed the ability to replicate, gradually evolving into living things.Wächtershäuser rejected those ideas and, instead, proposed that Iron, Sulphur, and various other minerals reacted with organic substances in the ocean, producing many of the biochemicals that exist in modern organisms. This diagram [2] gives an overview. Keep in mind that the original hypothesis included a great many more reactions.Pyrite, sometimes called fool’s gold, is crucial to this scheme:Iron and sulphur react with each other to form pyite. This reaction provides energy and electrons (e in the diagram) that drives other biochemical reactions.In modern organisms, enzymes push (catalyze) biochemical reactions. It turns out that pyrite can catalyze many of the same reactions. So, the earliest living things could have relied on pyrite to avoid having to create complicated enzymes.All of these reactions can happen on the surfaces of rocks at the bottom of the ocean. That means the earliest living things didn’t have to start with membranes to enclose biochemicals.Eventually, reactions would some develop self-sustaining cycles that would form the basis of something like a living thing.So, is the hypothesis right?Parts of Wächtershäuser’s ideas are now widely accepted and other parts are likely wrong.His ideas about pyrite are now called the Iron–Sulfur World hypothesis. They are still widely cited and regarded as important by many people in that field[3] but some, like Mike Russell, think that they are completely wrong.[4]There is no evidence for self-sustaining cycles, which are absolutely essential for his full hypothesis. Some investigators think this concept can’t ever work.[5]His own evaluation is that:[6]Research into the origin of life is largely an immature science that lacks a pattern of progress, where a present advance is based on a previous advance and gives rise to a next advance, and where advancing empirical evidence becomes progressively integratable. Instead, origin-of-life proposals present frequently a pattern of groping for clues.Most ideas in this field turn out to be either wrong or not testable. Wächtershäuser has produced more interesting and viable ideas than most professionals.Another amateur:Early in the 20th Century, a patent clerk developed several physical theories, including one about the motions of bodies moving near the speed of light.[7] Nobody was paying him to develop these theories or publish them. In that sense, he qualified as an amateur scientist. We don’t usually think of him that way because his early work got him positions at universities.To read more:For great, non-technical overviews, try these. Unfortunately. the second one is behind a paywall.Amateur Shakes Up Ideas on Recipe for LifeBetween a Rock and a Hard PlaceHe speaks for himself in this interview, which provides a good sense of his distinctive personal style:Entrevista Gunter WachtershauserHis scientific publications are extremely challenging, especially the early ones. That’s always a bad sign. Good theorists write clearly; bad theorists write mud.
