How common is burnout in tech? According to this survey from Blind, nearly 60% of surveyed tech workers are burnt out. Blind is an anonymous, work email-verified, social networking platform for professionals…

…used by 40,000 Microsoft employees, 25,000 from Amazon, 10,000 from Google, 7,000 from Uber, 6,000 from Facebook, and thousands from other tech companies, so there is wide representation in their survey results.

This one-question survey had a simple yes/no answer: “Are you currently suffering from job burnout?” And over half of respondents (57.16%, to be exact) answered yes.

So, are you currently suffering from job burnout?

Fascinating look at the underpinnings of the big Zoom vulnerability announced last week, including an excellent discussion of how a lack of understanding may have led to this huge fiasco. Author Chris Foster:

What this says to me is that Zoom may have needed to get this feature out and did not understand CORS. They couldn’t make the AJAX requests without the browser disallowing the attempt. Instead, they built this image hack to work around CORS. By doing this, they opened Zoom up to a big vulnerability because not only can the Zoom website trigger operations in the native client and access the response, but every other website on the internet can too.

I love how this article is arguing for those interested in AI to get their hands dirty. It doesn’t always require expensive GPU machines and a math Ph.D. Just start trying to build something that’s interesting to you!

Every 21st-century child has to learn about photosynthesis, electricity and the human digestive system. Why not teach them how to develop a software application or give them a chance to learn about algorithms?

Great question Sid!
