While I don't disagree, it is beyond their control. At the time they released this, the maximum lifetime for a TLS certificate is 398 days.

It is an ongoing problem with no quick solution that is going to get worse, as the standard is changing the maximum time to be only 47 days. This means that not only will your software have to be able to refresh its trusted cert once a month, it will have to be able to phone home at least once a month in order to do that... a device disconnected for two months in a row will need manual intervention.

I guarantee this is the big difference between what Bernie's bill says versus what the administration is proposing. In one case, you have a bill saying that the people receive ownership without having to incur the risk of an investment. The other proposal is very likely that the government it has to invest at the same valuation that all these VCs did.

They aren't doing that.

The certificate is expiring. When it expires, it will no longer be able to talk to the server to validate the license.

In order to fix it, they need to issue a new certificate, which requires updating the software - which they no longer update.

The problem is rooted in the time-boxing of encryption certificates.

I literally did not even know about this movie until last week. It has hard very little media coverage, no one talking about it on any major social media platform (which means that they have not been paying people to talk about it)

If Disney expected a big opening for this - they should fire their PR team.

I agree 10000% with what you are saying

But again, my company is not a charity

I can't afford to hire junior developers and train them for funsies. That's what you are suggesting.

What does that mean 5-10 years down the road? We are all fucked. But again, I can't solve that for society. That is SUPPOSED to be the job of government, but they are all sitting on their hands eve though the industry has been screaming at them for 3 years now to start plannibg and do something

This braindead article is very out of touch with what is happening on the ground. Go and actually talk to developers, or look at Department of Labor statistics.

"AI is just making developers more efficient" - Yes, which means, we need less of them.

Speaking as the position of someone in charge of an engineering team - I don't plan on ever hiring another junior engineer, ever again. I only have jobs for senior engineers now. What does this mean for the industry? It is going to be dire - however my company is not a charity, I need to make decisions based on what is best for the company - and right now, that means hiring hardly anyone and those that I do hire are only seniors.
