So you're a manager now

Advice for first-time managers from someone who learned it the hard way, cleaned it up, and passed it on. Welcome to the club. You either asked for this, or someone tapped you on the shoulder and said, “Hey, you seem responsible. Wanna be in charge of other humans?” Either way, here you are. Congrats. Or condolences. Maybe both. Being a first-time manager is weird. You go from being great at your job to being a total beginner at a job that nobody really taught you how to do. There’s no “Manage

Josh Hawley Says Trump Tariff Rebate Checks Won’t Go to ‘Biden Voters’

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-12-20 18:40:56

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Missouri) recently introduced legislation that he claims is designed to allow Americans to “benefit” from Trump’s tariff scheme. Now, he’s giving everyone good reason to believe that his ploy to send rebate checks at a time of rising inflation is just a political stunt. The administration’s tariffs are unprecedented in modern economic history and are currently generating revenue for the U.S. government by taxing U.S. businesses on their imports.

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-21 14:21:56

Hackers planted a Raspberry Pi equipped with a 4G modem in the network of an unnamed bank in an attempt to siphon money out of the financial institution's ATM system, researchers reported Wednesday. The researchers with security firm Group-IB said the “unprecedented tactic allowed the attackers to bypass perimeter defenses entirely.” The hackers combined the physical intrusion with remote access malware that used another novel technique to conceal itself, even from sophisticated forensic tools.
