#LearnedToday: Kevin Mitnick

Kevin Mitnick died a few days ago.

๐Ÿ“น These days, you can find tons of article about him, but I want to remember him with this video in which he talks about his first hack, at the age of 12.

๐Ÿ’ก Okay, he did something illegal, but I found it really interesting how he was able to think outside the box.

๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™‚๏ธ Our job is to solve problems all the time, very often just following best practices is enough, but sometimes you have to be creative.

๐Ÿ’ช What I've learned over the years is that you always have to ask questions, have doubts, be curious; at the end of the day, you always learn something that maybe you can use in the future!

๐Ÿ’ And then every once in a while it is good to remind ourselves that we are not just monkeys tapping keys on a keyboard! โค๏ธ
