The new FreeBSD Journal is out, including my letters column!

The issue theme is "security." I have things to say. Yes, beyond than "we're all doomed." Hamsters are involved.

Ha! Just realized I unintentionally advertised for this author... Scammy, scam, scam...

I just read a summary of the story, and I found it disturbing and vaguely threatening in light of my life, but I'm trying not to read too much into it considering maybe it is some sort of bug in Amazon's software... Just weird.

This is weird. I went to go for a run and found an unexpected package from Amazon addressed to me. I open it up to find this book that I definitely did not order:

https://www.amazon.com/Couple-Next-Door-Novel/dp/0735221103

And is not the sort of book I would enjoy, so I can't imagine somebody who knows me would send it as a gift.

The package slip inside looks like it has been cut off (do they do this for gifts?), so all I see is the order number, but not who ordered it. Is this some sort of scam?

• Quote from Rebecca Solnit's Hope in the Dark that reads: " The analogy that has helped me most is this: in Hurricane Katrina, hundreds of boat-owners rescued people—single moms, toddlers, grand-fathers—stranded in attics, on roofs, in flooded housing projects, hospitals, and school buildings. None of them said, I can’t rescue everyone, therefore it’s futile; therefore my efforts are flawed and worthless, though that’s often what people say about more abstract issues in which, nevertheless, lives, places, cultures, species, rights are at stake. They went out there in fishing boats and rowboats and pirogues and all kinds of small craft, some driving from as far as Texas and eluding the au-thorities to get in, others refugees themselves working within the city. There was bumper-to-bumper boat-trailer traffic—the celebrated Cajun Navy—going toward the city the day after the levees broke. None of those people said, I can’t rescue them all. All of them said, I can rescue someone, and that’s work so meaningful and important I will risk my life and defy the authorities to do it. And they did. Of course, working for systemic change also matters—the kind of change that might prevent calamities by addressing the climate or the infrastructure or the environmental and economic injustice that put some people in harm’s way in New Orleans in the first place."

what time keeping + invoicing app do you use?

♻️ 👍

I started using invoiceninja a month or so ago thinking it would be great but it's not an awesome fit. Thinking if I don't get out now I'll be basically locked in since all the data and workflows will be in there.
