There’s a secret way to land a job at Google that’s actually much more interesting than the usual approach. Do you feel lucky?

Just 1 percent of employees are responsible for 75 percent of cloud-related enterprise security risks. Or as they're usually referred to: management
|
|
|
|
|
Management typically comprise 75% of the workforce of most companies, with the remaining 35% being accountants.
(Actually - the 1% who really are the risk are the DBAs...they know where the audit trails are)

75% + 35% =

Yeah! Management! But they're responsible for so much more than just "cloud" elephant-ups.

Agile software development history doesn't begin with the Agile Manifesto—its roots go back much earlier. In the beginning, there was waterfall, and it was good. No wait, bad. Sorry, really bad. Honest.

No there wasn't; that came along later, due, no doubt, to the perception of havok among early developers who were gettin' it done.
Do you think Kernighan and Ritchey used freakin' Waterfall? Grace Hooper et al? I think not.
These early developers coded by the seat of the pants, or skirt as the case may be. They were agile before it was cool.
Agile is developers taking back their freedom after decades in the harness of Waterfall.

Last month, I wrote a blog post detailing our plans for Unity on Linux. Well, I’m back again to tell you the big day has come; today we’re releasing an experimental build of Unity for Linux! For all those Linux games

|
It might actually be something if that game system that Steam created gets somewhere...the OS is Linux based, I believe.

Microsoft officials say Windows 10 is now installed on more than 75 million devices, just less than a month after its rollout began. Now bigger than France
|

And the rest are running away.

Only 925 million devices to go!
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I'm wondering how long tis going to take for them to reach their goal. 75 million sounds a lot, 7.5% doesn't.
I'm guessing there will be another peak of new users towards the end of this year of free upgrade but I think it will be hard for them to reach their goal. I can see a lot of normal users go towards the 10 but I know I'll keep recommending that we stick to older versions of windows here at my work.

IIRC their 1bn goal was in a year or two. At the current rate they'll get there in 13 months. Put that way it looks good.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
