Luckily (buried at the bottom of their announcement), at least for the moment sim swaps, ports, etc are in-person, in-store with physical ID only.

My main concern is that, with ID, it becomes possible to do a Sim swap or number port, which would be the start of a heap of nightmares. Luckily, buried at the bottom of Optus' announcement, they mention that (for the moment) those ca

Ah man, I'm sorry to hear that. No emails here yet, but not to say I'm not in the category one down yet (which is only slightly less bad). I'm starting to worry about the general public's understanding of the ramificatio

Based on one newer article I've seen, leaked data dates back to 2017, so... No idea how accurate this is just yet though. They claim to have started notifying people today (Saturday), with customers with most amount of info leaked bein

All it takes to register a new number here, are your details including name, DoB, physical address (all the complete ones leaked), the type of ID used (passport, drivers license) and the number on that ID. You can do it in about 5 minutes

This just twigged something for me - there is now enough information available to easily do number ports, giving someone else control of the number used for MFA. Anything that relies on your number to verify account actions, transactions,

And why, oh why, are past customers in there. I'm a current one, but even 'not being with them' doesn't necessarily exclude you from this.

OP here. Some more information here (not my preferred source, but oh well): https://www.news.com.au/technology/online/hacking/up-to-9-mi... It seems around 2.8m have had 'all' data stolen (including

The count... Seriously though, like another poster said, repetition is key. They eventually develop context around it as well.

I'm pretty certain I'll get burned at the stake for saying this, but similar to another poster - the one that works. I spent hundreds playing with mechanical keyboards, used company issued ones, etc... But I'm now on my seco

Check the terms - if you already own them, you're grandfathered into the Connect (highest tier) package for free (for now, at any rate). I recently got a second hand remarkable, and absolutely love it, but not sure how I feel about the

Oddly, to your first point, I've had exactly the opposite experience. Came from a company that used sharepoint for almost everything, that I referred to as /dev/null - if you didn't know EXACTLY what you were looking fo

Awesome link! I'll definitely check it out. I recently got myself a reMarkable 2, and was looking for a PDF diary template (which I then annotate), in lieu of the ability to update actual notebook templates on the reMarkable. This a

I think it was Scott Adams that had the discussion about being the best at one thing, vs being (very) good at more than one thing, and in that nexus you can shine. I too very much enjoyed your writing style - have you considered going into

A number of people have touched on the fact that comments (even 'obvious' ones) provide boundaries, context and intent. I very much agree with this, with a couple of additional comments somewhat particular to embedded development

The 'walking off' prevention tags are brilliant. At a previous company I worked at in a niche field, we had several field specific control units used for development and debugging (you pretty much couldn't work without these)

There is one other elephant in the room that doesn't seem to be discussed much - lack of a code read protect feature (primarily, I guess, because lack of onboard flash). I've ordered my first pico, and am really looking forward to
