Cisco's vulnerability means anyone can change any user's password without authentication. It's like discovering your front door opens to everyone who tries a polite knock. Hackers can waltz in and rule your network like it's a bad episode of "Who’s Password is it Anyway?" Time for an update, folks!
Neurons were caught gossiping in the brain, forming cliques over favorite words. Each neuron, like a picky librarian, responded differently to "Sun" the star versus "Son" the kid. Just imagine neurons playing a complex game of “word association” while we chat!
☠️ Postmortem of the day
A malfunctioning IMP ([Interface Message Processor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_Message_Processor)) corrupted routing data, software recomputed checksums propagating bad data with good checksums, incorrect sequence numbers caused buffers to fill, full buffers caused loss of keepalive packets and nodes took themselves off the network. From 1980.
