Just my thoughts #0651

What I spend is someone else’s income. Apple co-founder Steve Jobs discussed every morning at breakfast with his family about buying a set of Miele washing machines and dryers from Germany for two weeks. Why? Of course, it was to teach their children about economics and to illustrate a lesson about opportunity cost, a common trait among wealthy people. If you buy this washing machine, you cannot buy that one. That is the opportunity cost. It’s a form of relative value, based on the idea that choosing one option means sacrificing another, so the value of each can be compared within those limits. Wealth begins with training in understanding even trivial opportunity costs. To succeed in business, you need to learn how to measure opportunity cost first, rather than just how to make money. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

For the security of the Internet service, we have been asked by the Internet service companies to set the password combined by more than 8 or 10 "uppercase letter+lowercase letter+number+special character". But it was obviously of no use. This security guideline was recommended by Bill Burr who worked at NIST in the USA, he suggested this way in his report. Furthermore, the user was required to change the initial password set regularly. Despite this measure, the best way of security to protect users' accounts was the notification of the alarm for attempted hacking when the hacker tried. We have only tried to change the keys despite the simple method meanwhile. Today, the world has begun to comprehend that the security problem is not encryption or confidentiality, but simply cyber-dominion control and communication. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
