I finished the Security+ book, and I think it left me with
more questions than answers. At the
moment, I’m questioning how to do a lot of things. Network baseline analysis is the primary one
of those. At the moment, I’m doing some
preliminary reading. Sure, there are a
lot of books out there that say “this should be done”. None of them discuss how to do network
baseline analysis. I think the best
answer I’ve seen so far “there isn’t a standard”. Which sounds pretty normal with network
security. And that’s why network
security is, as a general rule, very splotchy.
With Security+ being finished, it’s off to learning physics
VIA a collection of books written by Benjamin Crowell. Part of me wants to write a long, drawn out
blog post describing in detail how I can believe in both science and God at the
same time. But I’m not. The answer is pretty simple: most of life is
not an either/or selection. Despite
simplistic arguments against, it is entirely possible to believe in both at the
same time. The two are not mutually
exclusive. Sorry folks, I can believe in
both at the same time.
I’ve touched on the false idea of mutual exclusivity
before. I can’t remember the post, but
it’s the argument of people who want to lead you down paths that are only valid
if the two items discussed in the beginning really are mutually exclusive. For the most part, there are very few
mutually exclusive items in the world. I
guess in the end, you have to question the assumptions people push at you, and
assume everyone has an agenda. Despite
the best arguments, the truth is not the real agenda.
I think Andy Andrews put it best: People often think logically to the wrong
conclusions.
Really, there was an entire book about that subject. It was pretty interesting.
