When a tech bro tries to understand life through his techbro-glasses, he comes up with this "batch vs. event loop culture" allegory.
"Modern tech, meanwhile, is pure event loop" - not the tech you want to be able to rely on, trust me. ;)
In AT hatten wir dazu ja schon 2015 den Realitätsabgleich, als der "Vertrauensdiensteanbieter" A minus Trust (A-Trust.at) vergaß, sein root Zertifikat in den Browsern zeitgereiht zu erneuern und damit eGovernment in AT zum erliegen brachte,

To pull off all those revelatory and often highly controversial actions, Direct Action Everywhere (which uses the abbreviation DxE) has also spent years evolving its toolkit and operational rigor—from communications security and physical stealth, to penetration tactics for getting inside factory farms and slaughterhouses. It has also long maintained a manual of its own methods for those operations. Now, for the first time, it's publicly releasing that guide.
Despite the “how-to” tone of the guide itself, do not try this at home. DxE investigators frequently face criminal charges, and DxE's critics in the agriculture industry and in law enforcement describe the group as radicals with extreme tactics.
EU policymakers should have the “courage and fair-mindedness” to pursue a sovereign cloud and regulate American cloud providers under the EU antitrust law on digital markets, Michel Paulin, CEO of the leading French provider OVHcloud, told Euractiv in an interview.
in Koblenz kümmere sich die Stadt um das Schulnetz und stelle Schülern und Lehrern Geräte wie Tablets oder Laptops zur Verfügung. Ihr hat die Stadtverwaltung gesagt, viele Schüler nutzten auf ihren Geräten eine App, mit der sie sich im Unterricht Notizen machen.
Und ausgerechnet die sei durch eine Netzwerk-Panne auf den Geräten gelöscht worden. Und damit eben auch alle Mitschriften.
he video brilliantly envisioned a future dominated by computers, capturing the essence of a digitized society long before it became our reality. With remarkable foresight, it highlighted the ubiquity of screen interactions, forecasting a world where technology would become central to our daily lives.
Thirty-five years ago today (November 2nd), the Internet Worm program was set loose to propagate on the Internet. Noting that now to the computing public (and cybersecurity professionals, specifically) often generates an "Oh, really?" response akin to stating that November 2nd is the anniversary of the inaugural broadcast of the first BBC TV channel (1936), and the launch of Sputnik 2 with Laika aboard (1957). That is, to many, it is ho-hum, ancient history.
Perhaps that is to be expected after 35 years -- approximately the length of a human generation. (As an aside, I have been teaching at Purdue for 36 years. I have already taught students whose parents had taken one of my classes as a student; in five or so years, I may see students whose grandparents took one of my classes!
Equinix has reportedly blamed a contractor, alleging that person "incorrectly sent a signal to close the valves from the chilled water buffer tanks" during a planned system upgrade.
... the two banks had "fallen short" of MAS requirements to ensure critical IT systems are resilient. The authority requires that unscheduled downtime for critical systems affecting bank operations should not exceed four hours within any 12 month period – a limit easily exceeded in this case.
As a result, the MAS has slapped DBS with some hefty punishments – including barring it over the next six months from reducing the size of its branch and ATM network, making any non-essential IT changes, or acquiring new business ventures.
Der aktuelle Entwurf des Bildungsministeriums für die Ausweitung des Informatik-Unterrichts wird unterstützt, allerdings wird für das Fach ein Umfang von mindestens sechs Stunden inklusive Matura als wesentlich für die Vermittlung von Grundlagen gesehen. Dies würde auch dazu beitragen, Talente früh zu fördern und die Studierfähigkeit in technisch-naturwissenschaftlichen Fächern zu erhöhen.
I interpret this as a positive sign that common sense is returning to the UK.

David McCallum, the Scottish actor who starred in NCIS, Man From U.N.C.L.E. and The Great Escape, died on Monday (9/25). McCallum also wrote one of Hip-Hop's most iconic samples. The David Axelrod-produced single "The Edge" from the album Music: A Bit More Of Me is the basis for Dr. Dre's "The Next Episode" which featured Snoop Dogg, Kurupt and the late Nate Dogg. The string line was also used on "Fallin' On" by Tash and "M.I.A." by Missin' Linx.
RIP David McCallum, who I prefer to remember for his role as one half of the weirdest-TV-duo-ever, Sapphire and Steel. McCallum was a minor sex symbol in the 1960s, thanks to The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
He also did in the 1970s by a number of readings for the Caedmon label which included three albums of HP Lovecraft stories.
Revolutions don’t stop. Once begun, they continue to revolve. There somehow remains, against the will of history, a presumption that they spin around to a state of grace, a better position on the wheel. We fantasise this about politics, and in the digital space, in the creative world and within the engines of commerce. It’s rare that we consider the wild machinery of revolution and understand that disruption is a runaway process, and that eventually even the most powerful disrupters will themselves be disrupted. Only those actors crushed in the cogs of the process are remembered as “revolutionaries”. Those who meet success become the establishment, and are themselves targeted by the operations of the dreamstate of revolution.
The Quora user Kynan Eng (via Comicbook.com) has provided all of us curious cinephiles with a great service – they have worked out how much it would cost to save Matt Damon’s character in various films where the actor has been in fictional danger.
Two things about “artificial intelligence.” It’s not artificial - it’s built on as much human activity as can be shoved into a
database. And it’s not intelligent - it is very fast manipulation of spreadsheets.
Der Besuch von Bildungsminister Polaschek bei Microsoft Österreich diente dazu, den Austausch zwischen dem Bildungsministerium und Microsoft zu fördern und die Weichen für zukünftige Kooperationen und Projekte im Bereich der digital unterstützen Bildung zu stellen.
If you never see a social media update from a news source you follow, you might forget that the source exists, or assume they've gone under. If you see a flood of viral videos of smash-and-grab shoplifter gangs and never see a news story about wage theft, you might assume that the former is common and the latter is rare (in reality, shoplifting hasn't risen appreciably, while wage-theft is off the charts).
Ich so:
Wieso liegen die Mails nur auf den Laptops? Wieso gibt es von diesen Laptops keine Images?
Gibt es in Deutschland wirklich keine digital-ForensikerInnen oder ist das bewusste Inkompetenz?
Stephan so:
das sind Laptops mit Kopien der Mails für den Ausschuss.
Finde die Formulierung auch verwirrend, aber nach Lektüre des Artikels wird klar, dass es sich um Kopien handelt die von den Strafverfolgungsbehörden zur Verfügung gestellt wurden.
Und die sind auch nicht einfach verschwunden, sondern werden vorsätzlich zurückgehalten. Allerdings von einer Person die eigentlich gar keinen Zugriff darauf haben sollte. Sehr verwirrend, aber anders als man denkt.
