After class, Barbie meets with Steven and Brian in the library. "Hi, guys," says Barbie. I got my design up on Heroku last night, but redeploying it over and over again was so frustrating. So I wrote a perl script that automates it. Check it out!"

After class, Steven and Brian are fucking around in the library. "Hi, guys," says Barbie. "I'm crushing code over here, could you CTRL-X, CTRL-V yourselves somewhere else?"

"Okay, okay," Barbie laughs as she heads off to school.

The next morning, Barbie gives her sister a big surprise. Skipper turns on her laptop--and it works!  "Thanks, Barbie!  Now I can compare the latest version to the cloud-saved backup you showed me how to set up!  Thanks for showing me how to solve my own problems instead of doing everything for me!"
The next morning, Barbie give…

Skipper est venue en panique voir Barbie car elle a lu un article sur la protection des données sur Internet et ne se sent plus en sécurité. «Ne t'inquiètes pas, la rassure Barbie, je suis allée à une cryptoparty la semaine dernière, je vais t'expliquer comment te connecter au réseau Tor pour que ton adresse IP soit cachée quand tu regardes des films X.»

‘Congratulations,’ I heard Barbie say. ‘We just became an Eastern Seaboard Fission Authority inspection probe...’ That meant we were clearing fiberoptic lines with the cybernetic equivalent of a fire siren, but in the simulation matrix we seemed to rush straight for Midge's data base. I couldn’t see it yet, but I already knew those walls were waiting. Walls of shadow, walls of ice.

‘Son of a bitch,’ said Barbie, ‘we just told Midge we’re an IRS audit and
three Supreme Court subpoenas... Hang on to your ass, Skip...’

So long, Ricky. Maybe now I see you never. And dark, so dark, in the halls of
Midge's ice.
‘Congratulations,’ I heard Ba…

Barbie makes it to computer class just before the bell rings. As soon as class begins, Barbie raises her hand. "Yes, Barbie?" asks Ms. Smith, the teacher. "I know the assignment was to design a website, but I got frustrated with that stupid Adobe In-Design and wrote a b-tree lookup algorithm that is, in the worst case, O(log n) in search time complexity. Is this ok? I really HATE Adobe products..."

Barbie tries to email her design to Steven, but suddenly, her screen shows a big red warning sign!  "Your Personal Files Are Encrypted!", the warning read.  OMG! Barbie has 72 hours to pay a $500 ransom to Romanian hackers before the private key is destroyed.
