I often write up analyses of the passwords disclosed in website breaches. For example, there was A brief Sony password analysis back in mid-2011 and then our local Aussie ABC earlier this year where I talked about Lousy ABC cryptography cracked in seconds as Aussie passwords are exposed. I wrote a number of other pieces looking specifically at the nature of the data exposed in individual sites, but what I really found interesting was when I started comparing breaches. "Someone didn't bother reading my carefully prepared memo on commonly-used passwords."

One of my "junk" email addresses got pwned by the Adobe breach. That's why it's a junk email address.

Yup, definitely worthwhile keeping a few of those around. Assuming you don't use the same password with a real email address.

If what you're doing is Scrum in isolation, it won't work. Scrum requires a much larger corporate culture of agility. "It don't mean a think if it ain't got that swing" (and culture)

When I see those two items juxtaposed, it gives me the impression that it's something done in a gay bathhouse.

Internet Explorer 11 helps overcome the effects of network latency, making every day browsing feel fast and responsive without hurting battery life, CPU, network bandwidth, or memory. Network latency is a problem that holds back Web performance, even though we enjoy more bandwidth now than ever before. IE11 reduces the effects of network latency by downloading and preloading pages and Web resources in the background, downloading multiple resources in parallel using the SPDY/3 protocol, and prioritizing downloads of the most important resources on the page.

56 GB of RAM is their max and it gets expensive.

Good to know. Just curious, why do you need so much RAM?

San Francisco's techies are worried that the term has become so derogatory that it's causing them pain. They would prefer "hacker" or, well, "maker." "Call me whatever you want, just don't call me late for dinner"
Seriously, people?

You should apply at Apple. Their FoxCon factories could use a great motivator like you.
