Exactly! Just like how we say twenty eleven for 2011.

Now the years 2001-2009 we just don’t talk about…

It is true that a lot of music is recorded digitally and then put on vinyl. I’m in a band and we did this exact thing for our latest release. The mastering engineer did a special master specifically for vinyl that is different than the digital release master.

It is possible to do the recording process analog, but it is more expensive and time consuming.

There’s also a hybrid option that some elect to do, where they record to tape (analog) and then edit it digitally.

I am a big fan of BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front). Condense your entire email to a single sentence and then explain afterward.

The person you’re emailing will see the key point immediately (maybe even in the lede). If they agree with you, you’re good. If not, they can then read your explanation.

If the email is so complex I can’t explain it one sentence, that’s usually when I consider asking for a meeting or try to reduce further.

Example:

Hi {boss},

I think we should do X.

X is the best way to do Y because it can be automated and reproduced sustainably.

Etc. Etc. Supporting details…

Let me know if you’d like to meet to discuss further, {Name}

Ada is a feminine name. The Ada language is named after Ada Lovelace.

I thought about changing the headers for our tests to avoid this, but honestly if someone is doing that I’m not very concerned about them, lol.

Generally no-- the payload typically comes from some sort of interaction (click a link, open an attachment, reply to the message). There have been some zero interaction attacks with emails before. Like for example, when the email is previewed in the reading pane in Outlook. These are exceptionally rare and not what we’re training against when we do phishing training.

That said, if you know an email is phishing it’s always best to not interact with it at all, but you really can’t always tell by the sender and subject line alone.

Is banning them from lobbying sufficient?

What if someone retired from politics and then works for Shell and pays for a free weekend getaway to the Bahamas for a Congress member? Or for their “friend”?

Sounds like we need strict laws around what is lobbying
