We still have plenty of religious doomsayers predicting the end of the world with Bible codes. But in recent times, their ranks have seemingly been joined by scientists whose only professed aim is interpreting data from climate research and sustainability estimates given population growth and dwindling resources. Something to look forward to

When it comes to predicting the future, I believe scientists about as much as religious doomsayers.

Working a nontraditional schedule, and checking in at all hours of the day, night and weekends, is not necessarily beneficial for the 21st-century workforce, according to new research. But then again, so is not working during 'on' hours.
So, you can't win. Don't bother working.
Reading this (rather than the study itself) seems to indicate more that, "Telling people it's a holiday when they're working/studying is bad for morale."

In the long run, Microsoft wants you to switch to a Desktop-as-a-Service model, and the first steps on this journey may already be in place on your conventional Windows PC . You know it as Windows 11. It's the Year of the End of Windows!

You might be inclined to shine a spotlight on their exceptional performance and hold them up as an example of what you want from all team members. But pause before you do that. "Do you think you're what they say you are?"

The M1 Ultra is a new design that uses "UltraFusion" technology to strap two M1 Max chips together, resulting in a huge processor that offers 16 high-performance CPU cores, four efficiency cores, a 64-core integrated GPU, and support for up to 128GB of RAM. It's all fun and games until the tape wears out
However: hubba, hubba!

The key finding of the survey showed that many organizations suffer because not enough employees are being tasked with managing many different endpoints, with little visibility and not enough automation. I can't imagine why
Sure, the study is a thinly-veiled way for the company to promote their services, so are a lot of things.

For some reason I'm getting the idea that their concept of "endpoint" is different than mine.
Quote: that the challenge of managing endpoints has become even bigger
Particularly that sentence. I don't manage endpoints, I write them and let the authentication/authorization middleware handle the security.
So what are they talking about?

Here are the challenges of basically understanding this vulnerability (or any other) exists:
1) First I check to see if it was fixed - in this case yes, they said it was in a specific version of the kernel & I have a later kernel version so I guess I'm good.
2) Next, I think, "ok, let's say the vulnerability was fixed but how do I know that I didn't already have some kind of exposure?? Like they've already put a backdoor on my computer?"
I'm not sure.

The PowerShell dev team unveiled its 2022 plans, including a move to the upcoming .NET 7, a project that has been delayed by some issues. Those two companies really need to get together to discuss compatibility

Somehow, I'm guessing this will make PowerShell even harder to master.

A mysterious, one-letter npm package named "-" sitting on the registry since 2020 has received over 700,000 downloads. Because we're doomed
At least it seems to be a decent developer that created it, but allowing that name... :S

|

Quote: "Originally, I published the package to verify that '-' is a valid package name according to naming rules—weirdly, it is; you could, for example, publish a package under the name '--' as well," he continued.
Parzhitsky agrees with BleepingComputer's hypothesis that the unusually high number of downloads can most likely be attributed to developers making typos.
The developer further clarified that, while "-" does nothing as of now, he intends on modifying the package to throw error messages when someone accidentally installs such packages.
Wonderful. Having originally done this as a test to see if validation had some weaknesses, the ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) ing ![Sunshine | [little ray of sunshine]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/sunshine.gif) now intends to break the build of everyone who repeated the typo he was testing against.

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?

Which is perfect.
Only idiots "program" downloading crap from all over the Internet without checking. They deserve what's coming, they deserved log4j and deserved the removal of packages at the unquestionable judgment of the creator/maintainer.
Any "developer" who doesn't keep their own copy of dependecies and updates them manually when needed is a source of technical debt - and job security for the ones who get paid to fix their incompetence.
