Interesting! But I presume this only prevents encryption by Windows (such as using a Windows security certificate)? Don't Ransomware encrypt data files using their own encryption utility? In other words: They don't rely on Windows internals to do the encryption?
Thanks for posting this!

The lock isn't able to receive updates, which means the flaw allowing hackers to break in will always be present. One job. You had one job, "smart" lock.

CNet said: Internet-of-things devices present a major risk Um, but the problem is that the lock is not IoT -- if it were, it could be updated. Apples, not oranges; chalk, not cheese.

O'Rielly said: ML and AI will require cross-functional teams; these teams need to encompass not only people with different kinds of expertise (security, privacy, compliance, ethics, design, and domain expertise), but also people from different social and cultural backgrounds So it's a thousand times cheaper and more efficient not to bother, then.

The 2019 AI Index report gives us a glimpse into AI progress It's not just *artificial* general intelligence that's still out of reach

Sounds like MI, i.e., Military Intelligence --- that is, in being out of reach.

Seattle is famous for its gridlock traffic, but Microsoft and Ford are hoping to solve it with a new approach using quantum computing techniques. If you think you understand Seattle traffic, you don't understand Seattle traffic?

I'd solve their gridlock problem easily: ban any car trip of 3 miles or less with no passengers and/or baggage, and give away free bicycles.
It'd save millions of taxpayers' money, be good for the environment, and help Frasier to lose all that unsightly fat.

Microsoft is tweaking its Windows logo and the icons for many of the operating system’s apps. Finally! (and now it's perfect)

These new icons will be in the next forced update.

Oh good. They hadn't announced a new icon in a couple of weeks, and I was starting to get worried.
