Leave it to the ingenuity of digital criminals to dispense with the need for a physical credit card and instead devise a way to gather the same data through online transactions. Beware of websites with icons!

One thing must be said: they are elephanting creative. But... Why the fvck should an image be able to run code? Is something I can't understand yet.
And...
Quote: Cyberthreat security firm Sophos recommends keeping plugins up to date with the latest security patches and also advises online merchants to change the default Wordpress username in settings from "admin" to something harder for hackers to determine. As if the latest version of plugins were always clean and had no risks...
Changing default passwords for someone giving a service should be a MUST
Normal users are bothered with password policies, but they allow the default settings to stay? Really?

Had to look that up, too. There's a StackOverflow question on the favicon trick from 2011, btw...
The attack does not run in your browser, but on the server. When the browser requests favicon.ico, some code inserted into that file is run. For more details, see
https://blog.sucuri.net/2019/07/the-strange-case-of-the-malicious-favicon.html[^]
That is: as a user of that web site, you have no chance to detect it, and hence no chance to protect yourself. Great.
Oh sanctissimi Wilhelmus, Theodorus, et Fredericus!

To "run CodeGuru Reviewer" will cost us about $20,000 (does it review PHP too?)... So obviously it WILL BE a great saving...

Since providing useful information is apparently too hard for ZDNyet to do, it only works with Java/JVM and AWS serverless stuff.
Amazon CodeGuru - Amazon Web Services
...which is a bit of a pity since my AWS app is C#. The code review tool is insanely priced if you want to do anything beyond looking at new code in PRs; but at 12 cents/server/day the profiler would have been a bargain if it returned useful data.
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?

The new engine won't show ads and won't collect or profit from user data—instead, it will charge its users a subscription fee. It will be missed (very soon)

A new paper published by Disney Research in partnership with ETH Zurich describes a fully automated, neural network-based method for swapping faces in photos and videos — the first such method that results in high-resolution, megapixel resolution final results according, to the researchers.
