inMy grandpa called my compost bin a garbage can, and now I can't stop thinking about why he's sort of right
Watched my neighbor do the lazy pile thing for two years and his yard smelled like a dead body every August, but he also grew tomatoes the size of softballs so who's really winning here. My dad still swears by burying fish heads under his peppers and that man has never owned a thermometer in his life. Maybe the chart is just us needing to feel like we're in charge of rot.

Honestly this is like dating someone from just their profile pics, always go see the real thing first.

inRant: Got hit with a phishing email so good I almost clicked, and now I can't decide if my security training is working or not
The thing nobody talks about is timing. Your training video gets watched once a year in a calm room with a bagel and a coffee, but the actual attack lands on a Tuesday afternoon when you are behind on three things and payroll is on your mind. That gap is the whole ballgame. No 20 minute video can put you in the same mental state as a real urgent email, so we end up testing memory instead of judgment. What actually saved you was not the video, it was a tiny moment of pause you have probably built up from years of seeing junk mail. That instinct is worth something, but it is also fragile and it fails when people are tired or rushed. So my answer is both sides are right, keep the training but make it short and constant instead of long and yearly, and put the hardware keys in place for anything tied to money or logins. Training should be the seatbelt, not the only brake.
