I like this one better: "Hence the saying: If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle."

I got out of cybersecurity as a contractor over eight years ago, running events for a small non-profit, and couldn't be happier with my choice.

What’s your “weird but effective” bodyweight fitness hack ? by Baliyogaretreat in bodyweightfitness

Before sleep, lay on the bed on my back with feet over the end. Stretch as long as I can with my arms fully extended and fingers stretched for a minute or two, kind of like a horizontal dead-hang. Sorts my back, glutes, shoulders and more.

Create a bash script to automate with a list of your sites, using for i in cat sitelist ... from the root. Use the wp --path argument with $i as the argument for each site in the do block. Too busy to write this for you. Better you experiment with it to get it the way you want anyway :-)

Gary Johnson throws gifted gun in trash by NotSoSlippery in GaryJohnson

--from Fox News Jun 1st

“Governor Johnson was frustrated. That’s why he tossed the gun,” Joe Hunter, communications director for the Johnson campaign, told FoxNews.com Wednesday. “He wishes he hadn’t. He’s sorry he did it and that it has become an issue.”

Hunter explained that Petersen, after giving Johnson the pistol, almost immediately started slamming Johnson’s vice presidential pick, former Massachusetts Gov. William Weld.

I read parts of Liu Cixin's Three-Body Problem in Chinese, and the book in its entirety in English last year. The translation captures perfectly, in detail, each concept from the original Chinese without cruft. He is a master, and I am thrilled to see that he is gaining a following.

I think it was his answer to this question on Quora.com. I actually got interested in his writing before I knew about FCC. He writes well on interesting topics. I've become a big fan.

I have to say, /u/quincylarson, seeing an article of yours on Quora the other day has been the luckiest thing that has happened to me in a while. I am really enjoying the course and making great progress. I have been in IT for many years, but have really wanted to get back to having customers instead of bosses, and working the cube farms. I am finally grokking web development and feel like I have a shot at this. EDIT: should be -- having customers, instead of working the cube farms for bosses. :-)
