Re:Bitcoin mining the hard way: the algorithms, protocols, and bytes

I don't know much about Bitcoins, but is there a large risk of tainted workers in a pool that are reverse engineered and have knowledge of the part of the algorithm they're helping with? Then, if they detect they mined a coin, they disconnect from the pool, don't report the result, and take all the profit.
I couldn't find anything with a quick search, but would be interested to read more about (client-side)? security vulnerabilities of pooled mining.

US student interning at a startup abroad -- where to look?
I'm a CS student (will be PhD candidate starting August 2014) in the US and really want to experience a different culture before graduating by interning abroad (at a startup!).Where can I find information on this? Trying to search for this on my own only brings up results like "Unpaid internships abroad"Also, is this unrealistic? Will sponsoring me for a summer be too much effort for companies?...
