VULNERABILITY

I feel really tense inside: anxious and nervous like a coiled spring, waiting for something or other. I haven't felt like this for a while.

There's no particular reason for it. I'm not about to ask a girl out or sit a thermodynamics exam. Neither have I left the cooker on or forgotten to lock the front door. It's just something out there in the atmosphere I can't quite put my finger on.

I've just seen the Giant Pirate Captain in our building. It seems he's a new starter. Gulp.

Still, it's a good job I've never accused gigantic bearded people of looking shifty... right?

I wonder whether this nervy-feeling has something to do with the latest OpenSSL vulnerability. The news today is that the heartbleed vulnerability might have been open to hackers for more than two years. You can read about it here. I'm no expert but I reckon you should change all your passwords. We're rushing to get a patch out, which of course means release notes.

I've got lots to do.
