Adobe secured a database with 7.5 million records belonging to Adobe Creative Cloud users. The cache was not protected in any way, allowing anyone access to client information if they knew how to find it. Did they get tired of just putting bugs in the Acrobat code?

In a leaked video, Sundar Pichai says it's "definitely gotten harder" to maintain employees' trust in management. I'll go out on a limb here and suggest maybe "Don't be evil"?

Imagine if your favorite song or nostalgic recording from childhood was lost forever. This could be the fate of hundreds of thousands of audio files stored on vinyl, except that the Internet Archive is now expanding its digitization project to include LPs. "Just take those old records off the shelf"

Pretty cool, although I can't help but think most must've been digitized by now.
I mean "The Best of Bing [Crosby]", "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial [soundtrack]", lots of classical music and even Flotsam & Jetsam that I already have on MP3 myself (it was released in 1990)...

 Kudos to you for mentioning a fine band. Their latest LP is pretty damn good.

10 LP/hour works out as ~20000-85000 records/year (1 shift to 24/7 operations); with 100k items (not all LPs) in the collection and an additional 285k donated records this is going to be a rather lengthy project unless they're able to scale up. I hope they can and do, since like with old book digitization projects doing a single libraries worth of items only captures a small subset of the total historical record.
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?

When our brains take in too much information back-to-back (i.e., we see one image, then immediately see another), a bottleneck—or jam—of signals causes us to not be consciously aware of certain visual stimuli that our brains actually recognized. ... Sorry, I forgot what I was going to see

Google employees have accused their employer of creating a surveillance tool disguised as a calendar extension designed to monitor gatherings of more than 100 people, a signal that those employees may be planning protests or discussing union organizing. Google parent company Alphabet “categorically” denies the accusation. Google spying on people? That's so unlike them.

First this
Quote: Culture fit is unfortunately often used as an excuse companies make for why they didn’t hire a particular candidate when they don’t have a valid excuse.
Then this
Quote: While I think it’s good to have someone who fits with the existing culture
So which is it?

With plenty of mics and cameras at disposal, AI has gotten good at ‘seeing’ and ‘listening.’ But one human sense it hasn’t got around much is smell. Tetrahydro-4-methyl-2-(2-methylpropenyl)-2H-pyran by any other name would smell as sweet

Recently I looked closely at what it really means when a certain programming language, tool, or trend is declared to be ‘dead’. "'E's resting!"
Because sometimes I just have to post something to see y'all mock the author. Or at least the title (I mean, who has time to read stuff?)
If I were to pick a list of three languages *least* dead, it would be these three.
