I'm sure that's true but I've worked with a lot of engineers that are of this caliber and as long as you can form a coherent logical explanation they will bend they're way more open than you expect. But you got to put in

The problem is when they acquire software or services you have dependended on for decades, hard to change some of that stuff. However, I agree: if this does happen to you, move very fast to put some distance between you and this company. Th

it's not. I think there were some corner cases where the storage controller or SSD may use compression, in which.. the random nature of LUKS would cause more writes, but I'm not sure thats a real concern.

They have them, but not from a web interface. Probably will require talking to a human, and a service fee to retrieve the records from physical storage.

Would be a great idea, except they couldn't even operate WiFi with any stability (to which I heard was a LVCC problem, but I don't know that for sure).

Agree strongly that historical integrations were great. But cortex platformization of all the things has not been well received. But PANW is doubling down on it. It's also curious because their firewall platform seems/feels totall

There are quite a few who have. Ive worked in a google workspace enabled company on a chromeos device for like that last 6? Years. It works 95% of the things, but that last 5% can be frustrating: especially when it involves interoperability

Right? I thought the value of these vuln programs like hackerone and bugbounty would be you could use the submitters reputation to filter the noise? Don't want to accept low quality submissions from new or low experience reports? Turn

Full agreement. Rdr2, Witcher 3, and mass effect trilogy for me.

Yeah I get your skepticism, but this is really a huge issue in many industries. We are seeing it with an alarmingly high rate. You don't need a technical solution though, as the article points out, some stuff is just process change: In

Browsers were changing quickly back then, but if anybody remembers, it became Netscape Communicator and tried to expand to do everything.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netscape_Navigator#:~:text=Thi...

Love idea, but I think there are simply too many models to make it practical?

Because it wouldn't be profitable? How many do you think they could sell to a dying market, and what would those manufacturing costs be? What experts could you tap who know this space? they are all gone

sounds like your security policy is wrong (or doesnt have a provision for exceptions managed by someone with authority to grant them), or your auditor was swerving out of his lane. As far as I've seen: SOC2 doesn't describe any h

Funny how back in the 90s/00s, we used to say 49% of the internet was porn. And now we say it's bots. Something curious about both being fake human interactions.

agree -- that dual celeron setup (often with a peltier cooler) was suuuper common, I knew so many people who rushed out to get them and run at 500? it was my second exposure to SMP though: First was dual socket Pentium Pro 200mhz which ran

Yeah I would strongly disagree it does happen just sometimes those senior engineers are not as enlightened as the executives think.

Wouldn't shock me if openAI was secretly building a "motives" classifier for all chatgpt users, and penalizing them if you ask for too many censorship related topics. If you randomly ask for Palestinian moon base, that's

I think you've got it half correct: sales absolutely does have to do with the technical merit. Their platform works, it's just folks overestimated the impact of a single critical defect. Nobody would pay crowdstrikes prices if it

Hackers don't target machine identities.. They target leaked credentials (of any kind). Good luck though, there is a lot of funding in this space lately, and nobody is knocking it out of the park yet. The tech industry still generally

Weren't there several mass casualties at clubs? I wonder if those had an effect overall. Anecdotally, I remember after several of the movie theatre shootings in the US, my immediate peer group self included decided it just wasn't

the funny thing is almost every major retailer with a loyalty program does this behind the scenes.. but they do NOT offer it as a data feed or API to customers. If they did, it would be awesome, but I think its mostly downsides for them.

I think very many people are confusing H1B and straight outsourcing of talent. While there is some overlap, they are not nearly the same. Ive worked with both, and very few of the H1bs were below average. Otherwise they aren't worth sp

I think this is cool but this is mostly being used to find leaky old forgotten wells. Not tap unused or forgotten wells. This is purely risk avoidance, which usually means it won't get much attention or funding.

While I'm sure they discontinued the service on whatever cellular device transmits the data back it is a curious question about the legality of if they left the service in place and continue to track the vehicle long after they sold it
