- Assume You Will Be Hacked
Late last month, I began to consider withdrawing some money from my savings account to buy gold. It’s the first time I’ve ever thought about panic-buying. For all of the firewalls and two-factor-authentication codes, the safety of the internet is starting to falter. Hackers are gaining the upper hand over organizations around the world—hospitals, energy grids, government agencies, and, yes, banks.As AI tools have become extremely good at writing code, they’ve also become extremely good at pulling off cyberattacks. (Malware, after all, is still software.) The result has been a change in the scale, speed, and sophistication of hacks that is difficult to overstate: Among its tens of thousands of clients, the cybersecurity firm Palo Alto Networks identified a fourfold increase in daily attacks from 2024 to 2025. Hackers are developing AI-enhanced computer viruses that adapt on the fly to avoid detection. They are automating cyber-espionage campaigns on foreign governments. They are stealing data in minutes instead of hours. “There’s a crazy amount of offensive activity happening right now,” Alex Stamos, a former chief security officer of Yahoo and Facebook, told me. “Companies are getting hacked every single day.”If the NSA is perturbed by the rise in cyberattacks, which it apparently is, then surely my savings are vulnerable. There could be any number of weaknesses in my bank’s IT systems to directly hack. Or perhaps an AI-written phishing email targeted at an employee, personalized to sound like a family member or manager, could let hackers into the back end to empty my coffers. Even if the bank has great cybersecurity, an attack on another business—a medical clinic I visited, a car-rental company, a newsletter subscription—could steal my payment information and, potentially, much more. The attack angles are seemingly infinite. And no one is adequately prepared.The term software engineering has always been an insult to the level of rigor demanded of mechanical, civic, and other engineers. Computer programs can be riddled with vulnerabilities and run just fine for years or decades—and much of the software underlying the web has done just that. “We’ve just been writing software in a totally slapdash and insecure way for decades now,” Stamos, who is now the chief security officer at the AI-coding company Corridor, said. With some small, high-stakes exceptions—such as software used on the International Space Station or nuclear submarines—code is written and deployed without much rigorous testing.

- Great Smoky Mountains National Park—Blue Ridge Riding in Tennessee & North...
There are places where the road disappears into scenery – and then there’s the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, where the road and the landscape become inseparable. Straddling the Tennessee–North Carolina border, the Smokies form one of the most biologically diverse and heavily visited national parks in the United States. The Smokies don’t present themselves as a single ride but as a network of some of the best motorcycling roads in the country. At the center of that system is U.S. Route 441, Newfound Gap Road, a high-mountain artery that cuts directly through the heart of the park, connecting Gatlinburg, Tennessee, to Cherokee, North Carolina. In the span of a single ride, you climb from low river valleys into cool, fog-laced elevations near 6,000 feet before descending again into the next basin of Appalachian terrain. But U.S. 441 is only part of the story. What makes the Smokies exceptional for motorcycle travel is how everything connects. Riders often stitch together a broader loop that includes the Foothills Parkway, Little River Road, and surrounding Tennessee and North Carolina backroads creating a day or multiday circuit that blends national park riding with some of the most iconic motorcycle routes in the region. The experience changes constantly. One moment you’re flowing through wide sweepers along a river valley; the next you’re threading tight, shaded corners where rock walls and dense forest close in on both sides. Elevation changes are constant and so is the sense that the environment is actively shaping the ride in real time. Unlike many mountain riding destinations that rely on a single famous road, the Smokies are defined by density. Within a relatively small geographic area, riders have access to hundreds of miles of paved primary and secondary roads that range from relaxed scenic cruising to highly technical mountain riding. Cades Cove is one of the most unique riding experiences in the park – a slow, one-way loop through a preserved valley filled with historic cabins, open fields, and frequent wildlife sightings. In contrast, routes like Little River Road and Foothills Parkway reward flow and rhythm, with long arcs and sweeping views. Riders can base themselves in nearby hubs like Maggie Valley, Cherokee, Townsend, or Gatlinburg and build endless variations of loop rides without repeating the same exact route twice. Each direction offers something slightly different. Travel Resources At a Glance Location:… [TheTopNews] Read More.4 days ago - DAX gets Idobi as integration deal goes live
