Ascaso i-Steel I-1 Mod

After a quick lesson from our local espresso guru in Nijmegen, I concluded that my espresso grinder was just not grinding fine enough to pull that perfect shot.

Very thought provoking blog on why  so many markets are dominated by mediocrity.  Especially interesting since it comes from an unexpected source, a Saxophone repair service professional.

I think this could pretty much be transcribed to apply to security in software development too – so much software is insecure because by definition, building software securely is more difficult and/or time consuming, requiring significant developer commitment without much return (since most clients are not equipped to recognize the difference).

Very interesting read!
