The Ticketmaster Data Breach May Be Just the Beginning

Data breaches at Ticketmaster and financial services company Santander have been linked to attacks against cloud provider Snowflake. Researchers fear more breaches will soon be uncovered
Well this just gave me something to do for a few hours while I wait out the fog. Opened up Reddit for the first time in a few days and the GameStop guy is back.
He originally bet $53,000 on various GameStop options and set off one of the wildest financial movements in history.
When it was all said and done, he had turned his $53,000 into $34,000,000 by the time the last option cashed, with 200,000 shares.
Then he went dark for three years without posting anything. During that time, he somehow turned his $34,000,000 into $205,000,000, and now owns 5,000,000 shares. Now he’s back with a $68,000,000 bet on a $20 stock price by June 21st, which would leave him owning 5% of the entire company if it ends up hitting.
Predictably, Wall Street is up in arms once again, complaining about him manipulating the price by posting on Reddit about it. Funnily enough, in between TV segments discussing him manipulating the price, other CEO’s and financial experts are on, manipulating the prices of other stocks, and there’s not a hint of irony.
PARIS/WASHINGTON/MONTREAL, June 13 (Reuters) - Boeing (BA.N), opens new tab is investigating a new quality problem with its 787 Dreamliner after discovering that hundreds of fasteners have been incorrectly installed on the fuselages of some undelivered jets, two people familiar with the matter said.
The latest in a series of manufacturing snags affecting the U.S. planemaker involves incorrect "torquing" or tightening in a Boeing plant of more than 900 fasteners per plane - split equally between both sides of the jet's mid-body, they said.
...
The latest manufacturing flaw was discovered inside the company's South Carolina plant where the 787's lightweight carbon-composite skin is attached to skeletal supports inside the fuselage sections called longerons.
The sources said the affected fasteners had been torqued from the wrong side, using the head instead of the associated nut.
In January, Boeing issued a bulletin to suppliers that laid out practices to ensure bolts are properly torqued following inspections of 737 MAX 9s grounded in the wake of the blowout.

Never considered the strength of the fastener being affected by tightening the bolt or the nut...
Maybe they want to head to stay flush and immobile with the surface? So that the rotating head doesn't wear the surface material or create any small voids and make it easier to loosen down the road? Just thinking out loud.
Basically you should follow the method that's been tested and specified for best results.
Also:
When to Torque the Bolt or Nut?
The answer depends on the specific situation and the type of bolt or nut being used. In general, it’s recommended to torque the side with the smaller bearing face. This is because the frictional forces are greater on the smaller surface, which can lead to uneven tightening and potential damage.

Gen Alpha’s ‘Sephora kids’ trend has reached a fever pitch, forcing summer camps to ban skincare items

But worried parents have reason not to panic, according to Keneisha Sinclair-McBride, pediatric psychologist at Boston Children’s Hospital. Just as with any trend, it comes and goes, with Gen Alpha likely to bandwagon onto whatever interest the internet decides it should have next.

I assume the reason the tween girls, (and a few of the boys) are obsessed with makeup is because their parents watch, and let those kids watch makeup videos on youtube. Girls have always watched their mothers apply makeup but now it's like American Idol. The kids all think they can be a star and be famous and make a living at it.
I was able to read the headline and a sentence or two before I was made to decide on which subscription plan I would pay for to read their "magazine".
Who of you subscribe to any "magazines" digital and or paper, what do you pay and do you think it's a good value?
I wonder if I would actually read a printed subscription newspaper again or if it would just go to waste? I used to subscribe to and read a daily paper in my hometown. Before the age of the internet.
Something must have come over me, says Kohei Ohmori, reflecting on the 280 hours or roughly 5 months spent drawing a hyper realistic composition of a metallic bolt and nut using just pencils. The 30-year old artist, who has publicly discussed his struggles with OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder), has managed to overcome what is often perceived as a weakness and harness his incredibly capability for focus, which recently culminated in a solo exhibition at the Setouchi City Museum of Art.

and the bolt head is liable to abrade the carbon fiber shell if it is turned under pressure?
