My 2c as someone who works on the enterprise side of these requests: There are a couple of reasons reasons we might ask to look at your code: 1. While not a reason to look at your code, instead, if we don't have a valid reason to look

There is one key part of this article which I absolutely support wholeheartedly (the rest of the article is kind of moot if we understand that version management is non trivial) When a major change is made to something, as in a breaking cha

I think the article does, to some extent, address this when it says that the situations that we would most hope for modification in police behaviour are also likely to be the situations where the officer is under significant stress and has

Probably should have thought about it a bit more before I put my first point first. The major problem I have is with the implication that you can make your own drugs at home and it's safe, secondarily it's pretty concerning that t

Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. I definitely don't think that the individual citizens of America are in any way inferior to those of any other country, nor do I think that collectively Americans are to blame for their current pred

As an Australian, i.e. someone who lives in a country which doesn't assume that being poor is a good enough reason for someone to be allowed to die. As well as the brother of a scientist who often runs experiments involving the synthes

It's smallish things like this which make me realise how lucky I am not to live in America. In this particular case though, possibly just how lucky I am to live in Australia. Here it's either just common practice at most companies

But usually when people get to the front of the line they still present both documents, the fact that 9/10 times the passport is ignored just makes it a judgement call by the ground staff. Having spent some time working on staff manage

Something thats probably worth pointing out, deciding that you are going to go into a specialty in criminal enterprise doesnt make you wealthy. The same amount of hard work is required to become a drug dealer and make a living as is require

To provide some experience I have as someone working for IBM implementing a solution which leverages docker at a large bank - no one I work with is naive enough to think that they can get away with containerising their current systems of re

As someone who works for IBM I'd have to disagree with you there. No one has ever told me we are a huge cloud company, I mean obviously I've been told we're investing buckets of money in cloud technologies and that we have ma

Not entirely true, I work at a bank and many of the most critical core banking systems don't have an admin account at all. Yes there are accounts that perform critical system functions, but they dont have passwords and can't be lo

I recently changed my phone support password at work to "aaah, f *, I'm not sure is it.." after listening to all my previous support calls and realising that was what I answered with 9/10 times. I suspect its only a mat

While you are empirically correct that banks don't earn the significant amounts of money just from individual savings accounts, it would be logically flawed to assume that savings accounts (a means of collecting temporary use of additi

I'll admit I'm at least a little tarnished in my practices due to time spent in enterprises where external dependencies require 6 manager sign offs and a security team exemption, but if this were the case that you didnt want updat

It's odd, I have no doubt that you have had these issues, I was talking to a guy who worked for the same company as me, with the same client, just the other day. His entire team where just told they were being made redundant and the co

I have a sneaking suspicion that the ability to connect tweets to get something resembling a longer tweet is probably considered to be a bit of a cop out. The reasoning behind retaining the 140 character limit seems to be that if it's

But Siri and Cortana are sold to consumers, I'm happy with my day to day life being made up of over-simplifications because, generally, if those things don't work it doesn't really matter. However, in large organizations, dea

Every time I see an article which talks about "Watson" as an individual solution to a problem I find myself wondering what the people paying for it all think that "Watson" is? Realistically its like 10+ racks filled with

Buy the concept of taking data offline or to another network applies to this. For example, while banks are required to keep tons of data for legal reason, the ones I've worked with have procedures where, for example, tellers are requir

While I enjoy the concept that heroin might be in some way similar to nocotine beyond both of the substances being tangible psychoactive, it does frighten me that this is actually an opinion people legitimately have. Given that when the su

I'm not a lawyer so obviously I'm not exhaustively well read on the law but in the case that All Writs did allow any action to be demanded to help with an investigation it would still require there to be an investigation in the
