I work at a similar cybersecurity company and I can almost guarantee this is the case. Company policy will be to put an AV on everything, and the CSO/procurement always prefer a one size fits all solution so they only have to deal with

I had a friend who worked up in Alert while he was in the air force. It may be one of the most remote places on the map, it's essentially an out grown air force base/research station, there would be nothing there if not for the co

It's funny how counter this is to my own experience. I've never had a problem finding barley or buckwheat before, and even if the grocery stores don't carry it Bulk Barn is everywhere in Canada.

I think you're thinking of the classic shifting baseline example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shifting_baseline It comes up a lot when talking about fisheries stocks, and how each generation basically resets to

I'll wait for more information before ditching Google Cloud, but this will certainly speed up getting a fall-back/migration plan together for what we've got on the service.

You're thinking of vine, which felt like it was just hitting critical mass when twitter killed it off. TikTok has grown so big because of the boost it started with from people looking for a vine replacement. At least that's what i

The light difference between winter and summer get too extreme for most trees far enough north. The soil is also extremely poor. This gets brought up by people who think Canada would be hugely successful in a warmer climate, but even if the

This whole QuadrigaCX saga has certainly soured a lot of people on crypto here in Canada.

The title is alarmist, but the article backs it up somewhat. The handling of this pandemic (even if it only affects pigs) can tell us how they may inadequately handle an epidemic among people. It also factors into inflation in the Chinese e

We've been doing this with my son here in Canada for the past 3 months. It's pretty scary, but after having multiple people with peanut allergies tell me they wish they could have had this we've hammered down on it. There hav

Very similar experience with my son. We gave him a bamba (an Israeli peanut snack) at 6 months and he had an anaphylactic reaction. Very scary! However, we did get to see an allergist and have been doing OIT (like in the article) with him f
