To help developers build, learn and grow, we are creating the Google Developer Program. They can't cancel this one, can they?
I jest, of course they can. But maybe we can use it while it's still available.

Microsoft has officially deprecated NTLM authentication on Windows and Windows servers, stating that developers should transition to Kerberos or Negotiation authentication to prevent problems in the future. Not Too Locked M'kay?
Sorry, struggling with that one.

The DuckDB team is very happy to announce that today we’re releasing DuckDB version 1.0.0, codename “Snow Duck” (anas nivis). It's up to you to decide if it's all it's quacked up to be
sorry about that
For those wondering about the point (as I was):
"DuckDB has no external dependencies, neither for compilation nor during run-time. For releases, the entire source tree of DuckDB is compiled into two files, a header and an implementation file, a so-called “amalgamation”. This greatly simplifies deployment and integration in other build processes. For building, all that is required to build DuckDB is a working C++11 compiler."

It feels a bit dirty.

If they get rid of OOBE\BYPASSNRO as the article suggests might be coming, that will leave me unable to install Windows 11 on my work machines. Zero, no chance, impossible to do since my machines are air-gapped systems. Hopefully someone with a big enough $tick will beat them about the head.

The typical compensation package for chief executives who run companies in the S&P 500 jumped nearly 13% last year, easily surpassing the gains for workers at a time when inflation was putting considerable pressure on Americans’ budgets. Happy payday!
But of course that's because they have ideas 200 times as good as their average employee
