The real question is... are the hackers getting better at finding them? Or are the 0-day bugs proliferating and becoming easier to find due to either incompetence of the so-called programmers or overworking of the right programmers due to overpressure from their managers?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

We’ve come up with all sorts of mostly silly ways to talk about the importance of data (it’s the new oil, etc.), but perhaps the easiest way to gauge how we think about data is to see how much we spend on it. I like big databases and I can not lie, I SELECT * and I'm going to fry

Felienne Hermans dives into the cognitive processes that play a role when reading code, showing theories for reading code, and techniques that can be used to read any piece of code. "Would you mind telling me... whose brain... I did put in?"
Longer than the usual, and the transcript from a talk (also with a video of the talk). Hopefully your brain can forgive me for posting this experiment.

Google is introducing new options to reject tracking cookies in Europe after its existing dialog boxes were found to be in violation of EU data laws. Toss your cookies easier than before

How about one of these on my gmail spam(aka promotions) folder?

These fines against Google may be why I'm starting to see news sites add a "Reject All" option as well.

Probably. Lots of companies probably decided it was cheaper to copy the interpretations of companies who can afford lawyers to figure stuff out than to hire their own lawyers. Now that Google's old implementation has been ruled illegal, everyone who did so is now scrambling to make their own updates to Google's new best guess of what they can get away with.
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?

We’re excited to fill you in on the latest and greatest C++ debugger improvements in VS Code, including support for the Apple M1 chip, data breakpoints, and a new run/debug play button! Assuming some of you do this kind of thing (debugging, that is)
I'm kind of doubting that there's a sizeable number of C++ devs using VS Code (as opposed to full VS), but here you go.

I don't know about "sizable", but I use VS Code for C++ development. The only time I start full VS is when I need to debug something Windows-specific.

Depends - are you counted as "sizeable"? 
I'm curious about your experience though - is it just that you feel more comfortable in the lighter-weight tool, need less assistance from everything VS provides, work on non-Windows, or some other reason?

It could be cheaper if u can find any rather than closing your shop waiting for a micro-controller, best way is for consumers to stop buying new stuff unwanted just because apple release a new product or some other manufacturer came up with a new marketing campaign for two to three years... before product manufactures used to bring products out every 6 months...and your model would be outdated...now look at the state ...

Sounds right to me... People complain about Windows telemetry but Google is far worse in this regard.
