Little Tips You Wish Someone Told You

Do you ever wish that someone had told you certain things when you were younger so that you could stop wasting energy on those problems that are now so insignificant or just to give you some tips because life did not come with instructions or its own mobile application? Well here are some with might help sometime in the future. First of all, if you want to move somewhere new, do it now. The longer you wait to start that new life, the harder it will be. On that same note, do not wait to do something until you have money. If you have to save money to do something, start today. Also, there is nothing wrong with living at your parents' till you are in your mid-twenties. Don't think you're magically going to have money to do something in a few years. Next, whatever you do and wherever you go in life, make sure that you keep in touch with professional contacts. This is important because you never know when you might need help from them or they will ask you a favor which that they will return. Lastly, not everyone is going to like you and you are not going to like everyone you meet so quit giving such a crap about it. Be yourself and you will be happier for it.

The Internet of Things and Your Home

Software development and mobile applications have come so far that pretty soon your home might be part of the internet of things and be connected to the network. With every appliance that you have, you will probably have an online account to go with it for support or software updates. It could get hacked through data breaches at the corporate level and we have seen that happen many times. If it is not a person taking your information from the accounts, it could be malware that affects yours connected devices. It could either be used at a botnet or to steal stored information. If it does become a botnet, it could lead to Internet service providers blacklisting your home's IP address, which means you could have trouble sending emails or using certain online services. There's also a strong chance that at some point malware that infects your home will cause an appliance to malfunction. This may or may not be the goal of the malware, but either way it could happen.
