Over 80% of ransomware incidents can be traced back to misconfigured cloud services, untested security tools, and the enablement of macros. Unless you like leaving large quantities in unmarked bills behind the third bench in Central Park

And that the cloud providers don't put the default settings in a reasonable configuration or that things get reset after an update and the security holes of the systems themselves... that has nothing to do, hasn't it?

Data privacy in the US is, in many ways, a legal void. While there are limited protections for health and financial data, the cradle of the world’s largest tech companies, like Apple, Amazon, Google, and Meta (Facebook), lacks any comprehensive federal data privacy law. If only we had some sort of general data protection regulation...

The inaugural launch of SLS is scheduled for Monday, August 29, and everything seems to be going according to plan. "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things not because they are easy, but because they are hard."
We can just recycle that speech every 60 years or so until the cockroaches take over.

Once I grasped that git looks at the bits/bytes on the hard drive and not what we consider files and takes a snapshot of that it helped with my understanding. Before that, I would copy files off to another location because git deleted crap when I changed branches. I was used to being able to see two versions of a file side by side in an editor.
And if that description is not technically correct, I don't care. Don't correct it, I am finally happy with it as source control. Don't make go back to hating it with the passion of a white hot star.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

The Last Bug
by Lou Ellen Davis
“But you're out of your mind,” they said with a shrug.
“The customer's happy; what's one little bug?”
But he was determined. The others went home.
He spread out the program, deserted, alone.
The cleaning men came. The whole room was cluttered
With memory-dumps, punch cards. “I'm close,” he muttered.
The mumbling got louder, simple deduction,
“I've got it, it's right, just change one instruction.”
It still wasn't perfect, as year followed year,
And strangers would comment, “Is that guy still here?”
He died at the console, of hunger and thirst.
Next day he was buried, face down, nine-edge first.
And the last bug in sight, an ant passing by,
Saluted his tombstone, and whispered, “Nice try.”
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
-- 6079 Smith W.

Israeli researcher Mordechai Guri has discovered a new method to exfiltrate data from air-gapped systems using the LED indicators on network cards. Beware of hackers that you let change the firmware on your network cards
Is that blurb a little awkward to read? Maybe I need an editor...

Exactly!
Quote from the article: The attack begins with planting on the target computer malware that contains a modified version of the firmware for the network card.
