Proponents of free and open source software (FOSS) have moved to the next phases of open source adoption, widening FOSS usage within the enterprise as well as gaining the “digital transformation” benefits associated with open source and cloud native best practices. Build vs. Buy has become Build vs. Borrow

Simjacker attack abuses STK and S@T Browser technologies installed on some SIM cards. I hope it doesn't work with landlines - I'd hate to be tracked
I was going to put that blurb in "Simlish", but I wouldn't have been able to face myself then.

Solar panels are great for powering devices during the day. But they don’t work after the sun goes down. Now, a new technology that takes advantage of the cold darkness of space may do the trick. Time to make a "dark energy" joke
Actually, it sounds like a Peltier generator to me, but I guess the difference here is the wavelength emitted?

A lot of programming languages these days feature lambda functions, or what I would be just as happy to call anonymous functions. They're not completely anonymous - they just put on a pair of glasses and no one recognizes them

This is just a mess. A low level language having high level features is just wrong.

Apple apparently isn't settling on just Face ID and Touch ID for biometric identification, and is continuing work on identifying a palm placed on a device to authenticate a user. Does it involve you giving them your credit card info? Phrenology?

Google agreed to pay close to 1 billion euros ($1.10 billion) to French authorities to settle a fiscal fraud probe that began four years ago in a deal that may create a legal precedent for other large tech companies present in the country. Pretty soon you'll be talking real money
That's about 2.5 days of revenue (more or less):
In the second quarter of 2019, Google's revenue amounted to 38.78 billion U.S. dollars, up from 36.17 billion U.S. dollars in the preceding quarter.

Only 56 percent of all emails were unsolicited in Q1 2019! Magic 8-ball says: Don't count on it.
Although I can't remember when I actually saw some in my inbox, but my spam folder is quite hilarious at times. People fall for those?

And they're getting lazy with their spam, too.
I received one the other say that started:
"Dear <name>,
My great spiritual powers enable me to function as a messenger. So I don’t get in touch with you for a trivial reason.
I have important news for you!
You are a very special person. "
Not special enough to actually have a name, it appears.

Not lazy. Clever like a fox.
The first message in a spamscam is facepalmingly stupid because anyone with the minimum brain power needed to recognize it as bogus would catch on before sending money even if the first message was more plausible. Spammers don't want to waste their own time engaging with people who figure it out mid-way and back out.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Recognizing activities and anticipating which might come next is easy enough for humans, who make such predictions subconsciously all the time. But machines have a tougher go of it, particularly where there’s a relative dearth of labeled data. Spoilers!
