Paul 'Tony' Watson Interviewed 77
An anonymous reader writes "Whitedust is running an interview with Paul Watson. Watson, who discovered a flaw in TCP/IP that could allow attackers to reset connections last year, made a splash with the media. He talks about how he got his start in computer security, as part of the early warez scene, his work in the Air Force and the US Government, and his current projects. He is now working at the leading search engine in the world, Google."

I came to work at Google late last summer. It gets a lot of media buzz about being geek-sheik and super cool. I have worked at some really cool places before Google, but Google is so much more incredible than any media article or Slashdot post could ever describe. The best phrase I can think of would be nerd-nirvana (or should it be nerdvana?)
Folks, we are not doing a good job here. We need to bump up the number of Google stories per day.

I made a deal with a friends mom who was in school for Computers at Purdue; I would help her write her programs for her computer classes if she let me have use her Unix account so I could learn Unix and C. I fell in love with Unix immediately.
Major nerd.
