What Are You Doing Right Now
-
Right now I'm extremely happy I decided to get everything up to date on my biggest client's web server + site last night as part of installing Imagick, because I just read about a big wave of WordPress infections going around. So yeah NoScript up if you head to a site with WordPress!
I'm going to call it now and say this outbreak is probably due to an outdated plugin (probably one on this list) that has been packaged by theme developers on marketplaces like ThemeForest... which means most of the vulnerable/infected sites have no free way of fixing their vulnerability.
This kind of thing is what happens when developers get rights to package their themes with a certain plugin, but customers of that theme don't get rights to update it...
I'm also a big fan of this hypothesis because it means my websites aren't vulnerable and my theme elitism is worthwhile! But we'll see how it develops I suppose.

Boy, you didn't work there long.
No, most of a year though. They grew so much while I was there and now there is a huge team in San Fran and it just doesn't make sense for me to be the one remote guy anymore. It makes sense. Good time for everyone for me to move on.

@Joy did someone let the magic smoke out of them?

Last night I went nuts on Steam. My kids love super heroes and comics (not me) so I got them the entire Batman video game series (four titles), plus two new Lego games (Lego Worlds and The Lego Movie Game) and the two Scribblenauts games. Eight titles in all!

Currently wrestling a Linux server whilst eating a sandwich called "The Turkey" (It's wonderful. It's like Thanksgiving dinner between two slices of homemade bread - yum...)

We used to make those at Friendly's. They were amazing. Had stuffing, mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce all in it. Amazing.
