Oh hey its Friday, let me check my email and the Big Board... I am sure it will be a quiet... GOOD LORD, WTF.....

So I am now on my second Dunks large ice... Its that kind of Friday.

Why could it not be Teams? Forget AWS and GCP, how about a widespread Azure and Teams outage.

I would love to spend the afternoon by the pool.

I think that procurement departments are like the DMV. A simple purchase gets lost in an endless maze of bureaucracy, paperwork, legal review, and (un)necessary levels of approval.

In the end the money what was budgeted for a project gets lost due to the slow roll; and as the fiscal year turns over saving he company money.

That is my theory anyway.

I remember a time when websites did not require tracking subdomains to be loaded in order for a user to login.

You want me to unblock the tracker to login... ill take my business elsewhere.

This is happening with more frequency. I guess sites are getting wise to users blocking third party cookies and third party tracking sites / plugins.

I monitor a handful of mistyped domains for clients and it is interesting and scary how much sensitive data is transmitted over email, and how much of that ends up in typo squatted domains.

Maybe AI (machine learning) could provide a solution where email clients would check email domains for spelling errors and warn the user.

It could use the employee company domain as a starting point then check a list of previous emails as a reference, etc. It would not be perfect, but it could help. I am sure this approach has issues but maybe something would help.

Is this peak 2025 AI?

Builder.ai actually 700 engineers, no AI.

"Builder.ai, once touted as a revolutionary AI startup backed by Microsoft, has collapsed into insolvency after revelations that its flagship no-code development platform was powered not by artificial intelligence—but by 700 human engineers in India."

'700 Indian engineers posed as AI': The London startup that took Microsoft for a ride

The unraveling began when creditor Viola Credit which lent Builderai $50 million in 2023 seized $37 million from its accounts after the company defaulted

I find it fascinating the things people put in their email footers. This one is the largest by far I have seen.

The email footer on my screen at 12 font was 9 inches by 7 inches of 10 color graphics and 15 lines of text. The text was not the usual "this email is the intended..."

Of course it said, "please consider the environment before printing this e-mail,"

I would have to consider the environment because it would take a whole tree to print the email footer.

Attended The Witcher In Concert opening in Boston this past weekend. An amazing concert. Scenes from the game accompany the music.

Great to see and hear Percival playing and singing.

Tom Baker is still my favorite.

Cloudflare is an American company. So how is it doing business with Russian entities?

We were just hit with a phishing campaign pointing to a Russian URL, from a brand new Russian domain, from a Russian registrar, but content served through Cloudflare.

I may be mistaken on the totality of global sanctions against Russia, but it would seem that Cloudflare would not want to do business with these entities.
