It’s honestly not great. The security guys are completely exasperated at my job, we’re wasting time having with these. You take the scam really, investigate for a bit, write up a DNF with justification, they go and up date records, and we a

I 100% deserve getting flamed a bit for skimming and shooting off a comment when not paying enough attention.

It's not really a genre, per se. This sort of comes from Opera, and was generally referred to as Incidental Music. Music written specifically to accompany the action on screen or stage. You don't really see albums or collections,

Oh man, in Java world it used to be all over the place. You had a pom.xml for your builds, and you had configs in XML, and your API requests in SOAP, and you had SAML auth, it was just so much verbosity. And of course, you needed schemas to

You need Congress to make clear, explicit changes to laws on the subject. Not just to add additional restrictions, but to make changes to liability. Right now, a lot of violations will get chastised in court, but the officials responsible w

I worked with an ex-Kodak guy, and he related the following story to me from the 80’s or early 90’s. Xerox was kicking their ass, they were completely owning the copier market. But it was a natural fit for Kodak, they knew imaging better th

Read section 4 of the law, especially the automatic exemptions. Lots of stuff isn't covered.

The Wikipedia article[3] is not entirely clear and has a shocking failure to cite sources, but it claims the the Texas grid connects to the Eastern grid in two place with DC lines, and has an AC connection that has only been activated once

Frankly, it sucks. I had so much fun with new tech when I was younger. But many companies, and FB in particular, have managed to crush my expectations time and time again.

The intent of GP's comment is to imply the hack is a Snowflake hack that happens to compromise Ticketmaster data. If this was a compromise of a Ticketmaster account that managed their data at Snowflake, Snowflake would have been downst
