Despite the fact most IT leaders consider their cybersecurity practices efficient, data breaches are still commonplace, says a new report from Amplitude Research. In totally unrelated news: the requirements just changed, but the deadline was moved up

1) Most IT Leaders have not really a clue of what actually is being needed in the IT of their companies.
2) Many of the problems with security are not even avoidable by the IT guys as they are placed in sites where they can't do anything against it.
3) The best what an IT guy can do is have the best backup system possible because it is not a question of "if" they get a breach, but more a question of "when" they get the breach.
4) Actually #3 is the best advice even for private people.

Have you ever needed to debug and step into a code of dependent NuGet or .NET libraries that do not build as part of your solution? Now you can find things you probably didn't want to know
|

|

Indeed. It'll be like learning how sausages are made.

Intel has been working for years to enter the high-end graphics card market to compete with Nvidia and AMD, and today those efforts get a name: Intel Arc (not to be confused with Intel Ark, the site you go to when you need help with Intel's indecipherable processor model numbers). Yes, you can run DOOM on them

Reminds me of ftp.funet.fi (or really any ftp.xxx.yy site, but ftp.funet.fi was one of the bigger). Truckloads of open source code, ten years before Linux.

Interestingly enough I remember hearing that the French government preferred Linux for its users, that was around 10 years ago so it may still be the case.

Dunno about them in particular; but I've seen a a number of cases where a few years after internal IT/Foss advocates succeed in pushing linux to the desktop for an organization it reverts back to Windows/MS Office when the reality of Linux being too hard for Joe Luser and assorted non-technical pointy-hair types results in increased ongoing help-desk costs that dwarf what they saved by not having to pay MS for software licenses.
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?

This change was first announced last year, in July, when GitHub said that authenticated Git operations would require using an SSH key or token-based authentication. Does this mean I have to start posting my SSH key in these blurbs?

Given the amount of private keys people have uploaded to GitHub without understanding what they are I wonder how easy it would be to write a scripted that crawled GitHub and used each of those keys to try log in with the account that uploaded it. I bet some of them will work.

A new study from Yale University has found that common social media features like “sharing” and “likes” are unintentionally training users to act outraged online, the reason being that other users are more likely to engage with posts that are more extreme How DARE you, sir!
