This sounds like a good start but it should really be implemented at the human level by having managers convince their people to go home (with their work in whatever state it is in). Without the blessing of your superiors this situation cou

Go to [0] and [1] and count how many times they use the word "safe." We're not hoping autonomous vehicles are safer, we're being sold on them as the safer alternative. So yes, this type of close call situation is exactly

Why? If it is ruled invalid today then it was also invalid the day it was issued. I would imagine any company who paid for a license under threat of suit would now be telling their legal department to file a suit to reclaim the fee paid plu

Caching your WordPress instance does absolutely nothing in helping with security. I refuse to set up a new WordPress instance for any client unless they are also paying me a monthly retainer to keep it updated and secure.

No. No one would ever take the "sure we fucked up but be happy that you got a deal" argument seriously. Ask Intel's legal counsel if they're willing to go on record with that counterpoint.
