Oh to reminisce about the adventures from the days when it all began. One could power on the PC and go make breakfast all the while a script executes after boot to "dial up" the wan. From the kitchen one listened to the audible fe

Many years ago it was BBS systems and then as Windows took off it became SMB shares, fun times for sure. It then transitioned to databases open and exposed to the WAN and once those admins became educated the targets were RDP clients that w

And if complexity can be designed out from day zero with a clear and concise foundational development model to follow then the technical debt can be greatly reduced as well. This of course conflicts with the global rush into tech to build s

My personal stance is "no" as an entrepreneurial doer. While the masses consume the topic du jour served up in an all you can eat fashion by the very systems mentioned from the article there are those that still press on. Even bef

Everyone in business needs payments. For those of us with significant payments experience living the "build or buy" craze, as it continues to accelerate to light speed, just some insight to share. Your mileage may vary. The financ
