InfoSec Architecture looking to escape from InfoSec (don't mind the topic, simply bored with the corporate industry). Probably into Data Science.
Huh... and we all thought he was going to cause planetary annihilation in his first term.
Turns out it just needed enough Americans to forget that so that he could get a second term to actually do it.
Denmark’s Ministry of Digital Government is phasing out its use of Microsoft Office.. to switch to open source alternatives like LibreOffice instead.
Why? Because relying too heavily on a US tech giant for your nation’s digital infrastructure is starting to feel a bit... well, risky.
Denmark's relationship with the US is under strain, following Donald Trump's clearly stated ambition to seize control of Greenland, and recent reports of increased spying by the States on Greenland and Denmark.
Just updated my personal Windows device (standard feature update)
Had the usual "WHY DON'T YOU BUY A 365 ACCOUNT TOO!?! GO ON!!! BUY A 365 ACCOUNT!! PWWEEEAAAAASSSSEEE!" onslaught of options.
Many people will call out a weak information security job market - and ridiculous salaries on those adverts that are there - however, a quick skim of LinkedIn right now seems to have a few well-written adverts and actually decent salary ranges (at least for security architects).
I've not applied for any, so I can't say how truthful they are... and then it's also a very limited sample of just browsing LinkedIn... but generally encouraging in my view.
[And, yes, I know security architect isn't where the usual problem is - entry level options are usually far more questionable]

I shouldn't find this headline so funny... but at least it lived up to its name.
Why aren't we hearing about CEOs and other senior managers being replaced by #AI?
Aren't their roles exactly what LLMs are all about? Give a prompt and have a decision made/feedback given based upon that information.
"They'll outsource your job if you're not careful..."
"AI will be brought in to do your job..."
I've just had one of our outsourced engineers come to me with a problem, their message genuinely included the line: "Microsoft Copilot recommends we do..."
Both of them are wrong.
The recommended solution will not solve the problem they're having. And it will make overall security worse as they're randomly changing settings they have no idea about.
On second thoughts, give my job to AI. It can come to understand suffering.
