In diesem Fall scheint mir "Manager Brain" im Endstadium tatsächlich die schlüssigere Erklärung (ob das besser oder schlimmer ist, sei dahingestellt): Der Schwurbelsatz "Ein Projekt hat einen Anfang, ein Ende und ein Budget. Ein Produkt hat einen Lebenszyklus, eine Nutzerbasis und einen Markt.".. 1/

Angela Merkel im F.A.S.-Interview: „Es ist ein Fehler, Erwartungen zu wecken, die sich nicht erfüllen“
Bundeskanzlerin a. D. Angela Merkel über die anstehenden Reformen, eigene Versäumnisse, die Angebote, politisch wieder mitzumischen – und was man als Kanzler braucht.

The most insightful take on Mythos I've seen so far. Everyone should read this but especially those who are currently thinking through the possible regulatory responses.

Die Reaktion ist naheliegend, aber zu bequem: Phishing ist immer noch viel zu einfach! Auch wenn Signal nach der ersten Phishing-Welle 2025 schon Fortschritte gemacht hat, gibt es weiterhin Raum für innovative, gut durchdachte, ergonomisch integrierte Gegenmaßnahmen als default.

Seeing the first cybersecurity experts on LinkedIn that are apparently taking the "buyout" and leaving civil service. Such a unnecessary self inflicted wound (and still probably pales in comparison to the damage that will be done to the IC).

"[...] es scheint mir die weitreichendste und beunruhigendste Annahme zu sein, die in der rituellen Unterwerfung sichtbar wird: Trump wird nicht mehr als Ausnahme wahrgenommen, sondern als Regel. Er erscheint als unausweichlich." Wie immer sehr lesenswert.

Niche, but: “we’re working closely with our partners”. ie this situation is out of control & I’ve no idea what to do but I’m (a) spreading the blame (b) namechecking orgs that’ll be offended if I leave them out & (c) implying useful activity when actually there is none Also “stakeholders”

This. All of this. Every bit of this. I know Sorkin is cringe, but "decisions are made by those who show up" is absolutely how it works. And "I showed up once but I didn't get what I wanted right away so I'm not showing up again" fails to fully recognize the implied "reliably" in "show up."

Spooky bird stories.
A four-panel comic titled Spooky Bird Stories. In each panel, it's a dark night and a bird holding a flashlight is telling a story to other birds who are listening. In panel 1, a turkey vulture is telling stories to other vultures, and it says, "She walked toward the source of the terrible smell. She got closer and closer, and then, to her horror, she saw... No dead body." A black vulture says "No!" and a turkey vulture says "Did someone already eat it??" In panel 2, a northern cardinal is telling a story to some songbirds. It says "They peered through the windows of the house at the gory scene. Zombies had smashed through the door in the night. The homeowner was dead. But worst of all... He hadn't refilled the feeders." An eastern bluebird says "Aaah!" and an American goldfinch says "It can't be!". In panel 3, a screech owl is telling a story to other owls. It says "And then the ghost fluffed itself up really big to appear scarier." A saw-whet owl gasps, and a long-eared owl says "Horrifying!". In panel 4, a downy woodpecker is telling a story to other woodpeckers, and says "The eerie sound rang through the dark woods. Tap-tap. Tap-tap. It was the distinctive two-part knock of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. The species had returned from the dead... FOR REVENGE." A red-cockaded woodpecker says "Yesss".
