TBH only the willing captives are using VMware at this point.
And those organizations for which the migration is going to take time (often a lot of time) due to the organizations priorities and funding.
Huh? What taxes? There are no taxes (in the US) for simply owning bitcoin. If/when you sell then capital gains will apply.
Adam Back is currently a resident of Malta (he stated that UK vs Malta taxes were a reason he moved his primary residence). Malta taxes are different than the US or the UK. I'll would let an actual Malta tax lawyer (I am not, and do not know any) determine how much Adam Back might end up paying, should he every realize some of those gains.
Wireguard, a lightweight and secure VPN Windscribe, a VPN service.
Microsoft has been raising the bar for kernel drivers for a while now. I am thinking that in their enthusiasm for reducing the attack surface (which in the abstract would be a good thing), they have gone too far, or at least too fast.
Something tells me that if these companies had to cancel 1M+ subscribers they'd go out of business. That doesn't really solve anybody's problem, so what would be the point?
It seems highly likely that a smaller number of subscribers would have been the source of multiple notices (and it would have been up to Grande Communications to determine which subscriber was associated with the notices IP addresses and timestamps).
"The AP is not in trouble," said Julie Pace, executive editor and senior vice president of the AP. "We're making these changes from a position of strength but we're doing so now to recognize our changing customer base."
Times change. I remember a time when every newspaper had the AP and UP wire machines (teletypes) clattering away all the time, for that was the way to get national and international news. Those machines were, of course, eventually replaced by digital feeds. But as local newspapers close, the AP feeds and revenue are being reduced (and you can't just keep increasing prices to the fewer and fewer remaining newspapers). To survive at all, the AP needs to reduce costs, and one of their highest costs is the journalists. Reducing journalists will likely impact the value of their content. Whether AP survives long term is unclear, but this is probably a step they need to make now to try to survive.
I, too, remember a visit to the local newspaper, and saw the AP and UP wire machines . While I have long ago move away from those localities (and their newspapers,) I have watched as those local newspaper journalists have been replaced by corporate regional staff focused on corporate speak (i.e. if you want local news, look elsewhere). It is a race to the bottom for most local journalism, and I am not personality a fan, even though I understand the economics,.
Fuck Apple.
Apple (and all the multi-national tech companies) follow the laws and regulations in the jurisdictions they operate in (to do otherwise is not an option). If you don't like age verification laws, target the countries political leadership with the expletive.
...the adoption of robots
Amazon already extensively uses robots in their warehouses (notably for moving pods to/from the picking stations currently staffed by people). Replacing the human pickers with robots is still somewhat of a work in progress (Amazon does have their Blue Jay robot), but that is certainly a goal.
is something that just isn't taught properly, if at all, in schools.
Schools in the US generally stop emphasizing the teaching critical thinking by about the eight grade. There are a number of contributing reasons for that (some blame curriculum that are focused more on compliance and passing standardized tests than learning how to think). As individuals generally are considered to still be learning how to think and reason until their early 20s, the lack of teaching critical thinking well into High School leaves a significant part of the population under prepared for understand how to make decisions.
Usually, the new construction department is different than maintenance, but sounds like they're having a similar experience.
The lead time of bringing new capacity online is often measured in years. Even with infinite AI money being thrown at the issue, the lead time for many of the necessary generation and transmission components is quite long (last I checked the large transformers needed for large power and substations had an up to 5 year delivery wait).
Testing can show the presense of bugs, but not their absence. -- Dijkstra
