Your legal department does not replace your retained lawyers, they add to it. It’s separate roles.

Not always. In the beginning it was supposed to be a freemium product, with all the revenue coming from subscriptions.

You're conflating labels and distributors: for the majors, they are often different department of the same corporations, but they're not the same thing.

Last I chatted with some friends who were going through their first SOC2, they quoted a much lower number.

If we're allowed to dream, make it public transit, as private cars, regardless of how they are driven, are a climate disaster we can not afford.

Unions are a solution to a power imbalance, not a sign of maturity, neither when maturity is defined as "having attained a final or desired state" or as "having achieved a low but …

Unionization shouldn't be seen as an emergency measure. Even if I would hypothetically accept union as a last resort, which I don't, safety nets should be built not only when you a…

Or $3 for an ESP32 devboard.

That's on the company owners[1], as represented by its board. --- [1] Companies like Meta actually has two types of ownership: ownership of the company's current assets (economic e…

What I've learned from reading this is how much of my own writing style was influenced by late 1990s MSDN.

It receives, as its name implies, pre-release builds: it is currently on 15.7.8, while the latest macOS 15.7 release is 15.7.7.

If you have enough data to actually need to use Kafka, “simplicity” probably leaves too much out.

Not a real solution if you’re averse to using pre-release software like macOS 26. Recent betas also seem to break some small things, not sure if due to change in code itself or a f…

It wasn’t Twain who wrote that letter: that quip was posthumously attributed to him, and have been used by multiple others. The earliest source we have for it is a letter by Blaise…

That's exactly why I'm less pleased with GCP: to trust a CSP (or any service), I need to be assured that when (not if) things go wrong, I could escalate to a team that would have m…

Apple also uses AWS, and I won't be surprised if they also use Azure. Big companies are multicloud, and not because it's a good idea (it rarely is), but because they inherited mult…

From personal experience, as a customer who once did something stupid: Google Cloud does soft deletes. But you need to reach out to support fast enough. And really, if you deleted …

Of course, the solution to that is to nullify all HOAs, power tripping or not. They were a mechanism to enact segregation, and as such should've had no place when created, and cert…

Apple never bought a manufacturer, or built such capabilities. They buy and build manufacturing capacity, and there’s also a huge shortage in that today.

They can’t. Operating a FAB requires employing PhDs that are willing to work 8 hours shifts with no breaks (each removal of a bunnysuit is an expensive exercise), and there’s no re…

It’s a game of chicken, and we know the president folds like a soggy tortilla (aka TACO). It’s just that some executives are even soggier.

For domains where they handle the certificates, Cloudflare utilizes multiple CAs, to avoid such a single point of failure: I’ve seen Cloudflare managed certificates issued by Let’s…

No, we don't, or shouldn't ask people to check the URL itself, because of homonym attacks are a thing. Goal is to make sure that your credentials can't be compromised by surfing th…
