Democratic Doom

Miracle Girl: Democratic Doom

Sad to say, the form of democracy practiced by the Etruscans contributed to their culture's extinction. And there's a warning their fate holds for us, handed down from their tombs.

Have I made it clear that I don't like term limits?

    API-Sicherheit ist kein Spiel. OAuth2, OpenID Connect und JWT sind oft Fehlerquellen. Viele Entwickler unterschätzen die Fallstricke bei Token-Implementierungen. Bei der OpenID Connect Authentifizierung kann eine falsche Konfiguration zu unerwünschtem Zugriff führen; ein Beispiel aus 2023 zeigt, dass Sicherheitslücken bei schlecht implementierten JWTs häufig sind. Für eine solide cybersecurity weiterbildung empfiehlt sich das praktische Verständnis der gängigen Standards und deren Schwachstellen https://csvisor.de/. Insbesondere beim Einsatz von OAuth2 ist es wichtig, den Ablauf genau zu kennen, um Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) effektiv zu verhindern. Falsch gesetzte Redirect-URIs oder unzureichende Token-Signaturen können Angreifern Tür und Tor öffnen. Die Gefahr steigt bei Anwendungen in kritischen Infrastrukturen wie Energie oder Finanzwesen, wo unkontrollierte API-Zugriffe massive Schäden verursachen können. Daher sollten Fachkräfte in cyber security weiterbildung stets wissen, welche Standards wie ISO 27001 für API-Sicherheit gelten und welche Konfigurationsregeln einzuhalten sind.

Coma Girl

Coma Girl

Not a miracle recovery, but a miracle of modern medicine

In 2013 I fell into a six-week coma and nearly died after I contracted legionella. The Legionnaire's disease was in turn triggered by immunosuppression caused by the prednisone I was taking for my rare autoimmune disease, dermatomyositis.

I suffered a series of strokes on both sides of my brain when the sepsis caused my blood pressure to plummet. I fell into a deep coma. My kidneys and lungs began to fail, as my body was began dying one organ at a time. My doctors told my loved ones to give up hope for my full recovery. They expected me to die, and even if I somehow lived, I would remain a vegetable or at best left so hopelessly brain-damaged that I would never be same. But unbeknownst to them, while they were shining lights in my eyes and shaking their heads, I was telling them in my coma-dream--my secular version of a near-death experience--to leave me alone because I was trying to get back to sleep. I was experiencing what is known as covert cognition, the subject of my Skeptical Inquirer article "Covert Cognition: My So-Called Near-Death Experience," which appeared in their July/August issue.

But it wasn't a miracle--despite what so many continue to believe--that I recovered so fully. I owe my life not to God, but the miracles of modern medicine, as well as the nature of the watershed-area brain damage I suffered, as I detailed in my article and in this blog.
