I understand this is terrible, but it's brilliant all in the same. I kind of feel compelled to go check out this virus. I would love to meet the genius behind this Stuxnet virus. You have to be on hell of a computerist to think up of something like this.

^ True.

It's quite brilliant, and so amazing. I'm not sure if it was only one person who designed it, or a whole team. Either way, they're geniuses. It's still frightening though... All those hackers out there, they may make so many code weapons out of stuxnet.

Just imagine, if the virus was meant to make the nuclear facilities explode, not just shut down. It would have been chaotic, no?

Mistakes are made, and regrets are our luggage; we will drag them with us to slow us down.
The victories are flashes of light, sudden and unlasting, which allow us to glimpse the road ahead before darkness descends.

Love is bitter, yet it is the bread that keeps us. Over and over it fills us up, only to starve us.
The people whom we love shape our destinies and our strengths,yet leave us cold and alone in the darkness.

this sort of thing has a kind of terrible beauty
on the one hand it is almost a work of art a program that complex but on the other it has the capacity to kill thousands
iv'e heard about viruses that people have designed (thankfully not implemented) that make the computer think that 10000 volts is 10 or reroutes all of the power to places that shouldn't have that much to make the computer explode but nothing on this scale before
