    Uh yeah, the locale in the link is specifically an Indian locale. If you find it it disorienting you can change en_in to en_us: https://landing.google.com/intl/en_us/advancedprotec…

    Compliance with what requires KYC? Nothing in ISO-27001 requires you to collect any information about your customers. Unless there are laws that require you to. Knowing your vendor…

    The standards are very sensible. If you can't be bothered to provide even simple evidence that your employees are using basic harddrive encryption, use password managers, and your …

    Well, yes, but that's the point of many contracts, they are often designed to shift risk to parties that are better equipped to handle those risks. We run our app on GCP because as…

    I don't want to work wherever you do your thing. Software as a service means you provide a service, and you should take your responsibility to protect your customer's data super se…

    I can remember something like this a few years ago when a customer emailed our helpdesk with their own internal IT support desk in copy. Our helpdesk at the time sent a complete ne…

    One thing that is real is companies using LLMs to fill roles they couldn't afford to spend on before. Like the tourist who uses Google Translate on a trip to Japan: in principle th…

    I've been looking at this a lot, for ourselves (multitenant saas app running on gcp) and for our customers, who are starting to be curious about something between fully self-manage…

    A record's fields are final, so records are immutable (though they can include immutable pointers to mutable objects)

    This honestly sounds like a nightmare: multimegabyte wasm downloads, data corruption in production and byzantine hacks to coordinate writes between tabs. I am very grateful that we…

    I'd encourage you to take another look at the article because I don't think your criticisms are well founded. The javascript version does exist! The fact that it's produced by a co…

    The primary point of the article is to compare two compilation targets for a single codebase: JS and WasmGC. It's an extremely timely and interesting topic. The performance of a th…

    Ok, I have to ask: are you a Random Number Generator (RNG) supplier, or a Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) supplier, or some other kind of supplier??

    Yikes. There are many many issues here, but the images for the articles are the creepiest. Take a look at this article on conflict in Sudan: https://newsnotfound.com/conflict-in-su…
