Since Defender gets top scores for protection and protection accuracy (low false positive/low missed rate) I'm not sure slightly lower performance scores are that important. As an IT Director I'd rather have better and more accurate protection than low impact that allows malware onto my systems.

Although EF Core seems to be the most popular ORM in the .NET world in these days – and I for sure won’t contradict it – there are still some functionality missing, specially if we compare it with other ORMs that also exist. Some men just like to see their data wrapped

I have no interest in ORMs. I have my own DAL code that works great, and readily supports stored procs, it's fast, and it doesn't have a 6mb (or more) disk footprint.

SpyCloud's 2022 Identity Exposure Report found that 70% of breached passwords are still in use and 64% of users have had more than one password exposed in the last year. It's not like they'll be breached again, will they?
It's reverse psychology - 'they' know that 'we' know they're breached, so 'they' know 'we' won't use them. So it's safe for us to use!
Logic!

To simpler times, celebrating your Northernness.

The only good thing to come out of it was persuading me to finally stop looking at Twitter.

If I have to create a user and log in to use some primitive service - say, read the sea water temperature at resort so-and-so, I make a user 'myself123' with 'password' as a password.
OK, I know it is risky. Someone else might steal that 'myself123' identity and that 'password' access code, and that way pretend it was 'myself123' (aka. me) remotely reading the sea water temperature at some later time.
Those presenting 'sensational' news about bad passwords should by law be required to filter those sensational findings against a list of non-identifying user names.

And the "quality" of the site, yes. Having a password breach at a site that shows the sea water temperature certainly isn't equivalent to a bank password breach. Looking at the breaches for one of my accounts, I'm not overly afraid:
- Dailymotion
- Dropbox (I'd worry about this one if it actually had any files)
- Lord of the Rings Online
- Open Subtitles
- QuinStreet (also not a great one - after going, "Who?!", seems it's CodeGuru, WebDeveloper, and similar sites. As I never go there anymore, seems not a problem)
- Roll20

I new there was some logic behind this type of thinking but it had escaped me until you cleared it up for us.

Microsoft says the project is unlikely to build on modern hardware and software, which means enthusiasts and developers will have to tinker with the code to make it work in Windows 10 or 11. Now do {1}
Where {1} is one or more of:
- VB6
- DOS 6
- Windows
- Office (or at least Access)

New rules surrounding authentication will come in by the end of 2023. GitHub? Git2FA
|
|
|
|
|
So two-factor will become the Centralized Authentication if you think about it.
For example, we just incorporated Duo at work.
Now, if GitHub uses 2FA then I hope they use Duo[^] so I don't have yet another 2FA dealio.
But then everything is just Duo so it all becomes centralized.
Where do you think the hackers will focus their attention next?
Also, ask people who change / lose their phone numbers what kind of nightmare will exist in this scenario. Yes, you can lose your phone number when you switch services which will discourage switching.

Microsoft has warned Windows 11 users that they might experience issues launching and using some .NET Framework 3.5 applications. "It's just another manic Monday"
OK, Wednesday (or Thursday) when you get around to reading this. And I couldn't think of any songs with Wednesday or Thursday in the title.
On the bright side, it means you can't run any WCF apps.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?
