Seriously, I'd be really interested to know how they arrived at their 200/user figure. I'm assuming that includes service accounts whose passwords never need to be remembered by an individual.
Now, by all accounts (zing!) their software is pretty user friendly and better than a not using a vault... but this is just marketing. Why slashvertise it?
I mean literally, old programmers buy the farm as in I know a very large number of ex- IT / programmer / engineer people who have bought farms and live the 'simpler life' now. It is amazingly common. Common enough to become a stereotype. I'm one. I transitioned from a successful career in high tech to a successful, and happier, life farming.
That is literally what the game Stardew Valley is about.
Did you buy direct from Dell? TFA mentions such scams, including that the scammers know the service tags of the systems they're calling about. I ask because I suppose it's possible that a re-seller may have been breached, though it makes a lot more sense that it would be Dell itself.
When did you buy the system and when did you start receiving the calls? If you bought the system recently, that suggests a recent or ongoing breach. If you bought the system a year ago and received the first call six months ago, then Dell is being especially negligent with disclosure or, even worse, doesn't know the scope of the breach.
No matter what, it's pretty solid evidence they have been breached.
I find it quite unlikely that this ISN'T the full-scale engine, seeing that the first flight version is supposed to have 1.7 MN at 25 MPa and they're now in the 20 MPa range or so. They were at 1 MN a year ago.
They have yet to test the full-scale engine. See recent Musk response here to a question about the status of scaling up the Raptor.
Disingenuous. The raptor has a higher efficiency by using full flow staged combustion. The current lower output is for two reasons. The first is for optimizing the thrust to weight ratio. Higher thrust engines disproportionately weigh more. The second is multi engine out support. If you have one big engine and it goes down, you crash. If instead you have 3 smaller engines in the same space and 1 goes down, the mission continues on the remaining 2. When landing becomes imperative with lives at stake, I'll take multiple engines over bragging rights.
Why are you getting defensive? AC said nothing about which engine is a better design, only that the BE-4 is bigger and more powerful.
I'm job-seeking right now and they always ask. ALWAYS.
I love how this was passed thru (the law) because of male/female pay issues.
the REAL issue is that it makes negotiating a one-way street, with the company having all the power and you have nearly none.
'the first one to mention a number, loses'
that's how the old saying goes when you are haggling.
You're confusing two different questions. What you are referring to is your desired salary, and that is a bargaining point. What the summary is referring to is your current/previous salary.
They are not the same thing. Eventually you need to discuss the former, and you want to delay bringing that up as long as possible, preferably until after it's clear that you're the candidate they want. They have no right to know the latter number and if they won't allow you to proceed without disclosing it then I suggest that's not the company you want to work for unless you're in dire straits.
Perhaps so, but most "single" things aren't so common as dust. You can be careful with a glass of water, but it's damn near impossible to maintain a dust-free environment.
Debris in a keyboard is a pretty common issue. Especially for laptops. Dust, hairs, crumbs. It's gross in there.
There have been numerous studies showing that mounting the phone or even having hands free operation still results in unacceptable levels of distracted driving.
Driving is boring and people will always distract themselves with something. You just find cell phones to be a convenient scapegoat.
What about the Amazon shut-ins? I've read plenty of people on this very website, who state that they hate interacting with other people, and they only order from Amazon. What are those malcontents going to do without power? They're certainly not going to a store.
(emphasis mine) Or the movie theaters, by all indications. I propose you amend the term to Amazon/Netflix shut-ins.
Knowledge of film history is utterly irrelevant in determining whether or not a film is worth seeing.
Of course it is relevant. A good film critic should not only tell you whether a film is worth seeing, but can tell you why, and what other films you might enjoy if you enjoy this one (or what films succeed where this one fails).
Haven't you ever heard about what happens to those who ignore history?
Honestly, if that's their take-away they're pretty fucking dumb. Nobody wants to go to theaters, they are filled with loud obnoxious jackasses and plague-ridden children, sometimes also loud obnoxious plague-ridden children.
If ever you had a chance to see a brilliant film in a theater all to yourself, this is it (since you clearly hate the common man).
The first is that both Sprint and T-Mobile are silo'd, in the public consciousness, with "Cheap and poor quality", in comparison to their other two competitors. The reputation is unfair: T-Mobile is superb right now, and Verizon has always been overrated, concentrating on technical metrics studied in surveys while running a network that ignores critical usability features like call quality and user friendliness.
It's also unfair because T-Mobile is no longer particularly cheap.
There was plenty of evidence to show that the default security was absolute shit.
What was lacking here was common fucking sense that confirms when default security is absolute shit, data breaches are usually the end result.
Validation of that fact is likely strewn across decades of case law, so it was hiding about as well as an elephant herd in the room.
You and I see lots of evidence of poor security, but that is not the same thing as evidence of harm to the consumer. Schlage locks are very easy to pick, but I doubt that factors into most home burglaries.
Since the Judge doesn't believe that the blatant existence of shitty default security can and often will lead to data breaches, I suggest we force the Judge to install the hardware inside every room of their personal home.
If the Judge thinks it's so fucking secure, then put your privacy where your ruling is.
Your comment makes my head hurt. If insufficient evidence of harm was provided, then it's not the judge's job to prove anything.

What's the alternative? Suppose he completed his PhD. He wasn't going to stay in academia if he could make so much more money in the private sector.
He probably should have leveled with the school all the same out of courtesy.

Okay answering one of my own questions: in TFA, Krebs links to a post he made in Frebruary about the tech support scams, so shame on Dell.

iPhones. If you look at the market for vulnerabilities, iOS vulnerabilities command extremely high prices.
I don't particularly care for Apple products, but if security were my main criterion for a new devices, that's what I'd get.
Also, smart watches are dumb.

And it is.
We were regularly told that we couldn't discuss how much we made.
I hope somebody pointed out that this violates federal labor laws.

Compared to a camera crane, it's pretty light-weight.
Sorry, I doubt there is any chance that a neural network can be used in a meaningfull way

I don't know, sounds like a great way to cheat at Go.

The Dragon v2 is designed to be reusable multiple times without major refurbishment. Only the second stage of the rocket is expendable.

Better that they'd stuck with the Pan Ams and ATARI of the first film.
I do not think you saw the film I saw.
This kind of editorializing is why I didn't really miss this site that much during the outage earlier this week.

In iOS 11, just click the power button 5 times - that temporarily disables both TouchID and FaceID, requiring a passcode to unlock the phone
That's a nice fail safe but doesn't help if your phone is taken before you can go through those steps.
