As someone who does work in security: the field is far wider than you seem to imply really. When you say "IT security" do you mean pentesting? Access management? Network security? ISO 27001 auditing? Working with any of the many s

I hope I don't come off as too glib but: "Also bitcoin is issued by the consensus algorithm at will. And nobody else can create bitcoin."

From reading the article these aren't just accountants or financial managers: they're on call 24/7 and ready to handhold you through everything and seem to be willing to manage every aspect of your life that you throw at them

That is mind-boggingly ridiculous: the concept that a company would have any sort of opinion on who I have sex with. US work culture sometimes feels so incredibly alien when seen from the outside.

Similar camp here. My 2012 MBA has been a lovely ultrabook but now that it's showing its age and I'm looking to replace it this year, I've decided to move away from the OSX ecosystem and am currently waiting for the next Surf

Only the "grrr Micro$oft" people care. They're effectively using the same model that Google uses for Chrome/Chromium or Android/AOSP.

So you're saying that "Will" is your organization's single point of failure? So, when he goes on vacation or when he's sick or quits the whole thing comes crashing down? If that's the case, I hope I don't

I've been working remotely for the past half year (same job and same place, I just started doing it remotely) and I was a little afraid of that: mixing my personal and professional time. For me at least it turns out that the fear was c

If you two didn't have that commute you'd be free to do it whenever you felt like, not forced to twice a day at mostly-fixed times.

Still it's a lot harder to convince a, lets say, Chinese court to order that kind of surveillance on a local company over an allegation of a crime that happened half a world away. Add a couple more vpn layers over multiple internationa

Doesn't matter, more knowledge is always to our advantage; not being politically correct is a terrible reason for withholding information. We'll never get better by burying our heads in the sand.

If you routinely drive through plastic bags on the street, prepare for some disappointment when it turns out that the bag had a rock inside it. The car should 100% also avoid bags or any obstacles.

Why would the radar even be pointed at areas several meters above the car? Maybe radars can't be pointed at a narrow space, if that's the case why not use lidar instead?

The GDPR's scope is EU (or EEA, I can't recall) residents in EU territories, it has no provisions at all for EU citizens who reside outside the territory.

Depending on the jurisdiction it might be fraud or not. It's effectively the same as writing a check that you know doesn't have funding behind it.

Anonymizing like that would be GDPR compliant yes, as long as the remaining information absolutely cannot be used to identity the original subject.

Plus it leaves the market open for other businesses who are actually compliant so they can capture a bigger slice of the market than the existing services. There really is a lot to win.

You can't withhold service based on accepting non-essential data collection without offering alternatives, that falls under coercion and is a direct violation of the regulation. Should you ever see that report them immediately (somethi

I'm mostly in the same boat: not having a 3.5mm jack is an excluding factor for me. As someone who has multiple headsets, I'm not surrendering to #dongleLyfe until I'm left with no other options. Thankfully the likes of Samsu
