Disappointed Optimists

Opinion essay ties designer burnout in a tech worker survey to AI tooling and unresolvable conflicts between craft and shareholder value.

The essay cites the second annual tech worker survey by Lenny Rachitsky and Noam Segal, in which designers reported the highest exhaustion of any role, the worst-rated managers, and the least willingness to recommend their career path. The author, a design educator, frames all design as behavior change in service of organizational goals and calls the design career a 'cursed problem'. It argues AI lowered the floor of what anyone can produce without raising the ceiling of what is good.

Iranian cyber spies target aviation, fintech developers with new malware

Kaspersky links Iranian espionage group Mirage Kitten to fake job offers delivering new NodeRabbit and PollCat malware at aviation and fintech targets.

Kaspersky attributes the campaign to Iran-linked Mirage Kitten (also tracked as UNC1549, Smoke Sandstorm and Nimbus Manticore), which targeted developers and specialists in Egypt, Ethiopia and Afghanistan via fake recruiter contacts on LinkedIn and job platforms. Victims were lured into running malicious coding assessments that deployed two previously unknown families: NodeRabbit, a cross-platform RAT for Windows, Linux and macOS, and PollCat, which provides persistence and delivers additional payloads. The group masks activity behind legitimate Microsoft Azure and Cloudflare infrastructure, sometimes embedding victim organization names in Azure subdomains. The group has been active since at least 2022, focusing on aviation, aerospace and financial technology sectors in Africa and the Middle East.
