Here is a petition to prevent things like this.[^]
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

A few weeks ago I gave a guest lecture at the Windesheim University of Applied Sciences in The Netherlands. When I started the demonstration, I thought it would be fun to ask the students to name a company of which I would subsequently review the security. What I found out next was quite astonishing and I had to change the direction of the demonstration in order to protect the company’s security. A tale from an Ethical Hacker.

Some of the answer are really funny. They seem to come from SO-People 
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Programming bootcamps seem to make an impossible claim. Instead of spending four years in university, they say, you can learn how to be a software engineer in a three month program. tl;dr both have strengths and weaknesses.

Thanks for the article. It has data, which it is more than an opinion.
So my opinion. I'd prefer and pay more for a BS CS than a bootcamper; if the bootcamper never went to college. Why? While the data proves that bootcampers are capable and competitive, besides algorithms and data structures, they lack general education. Sciences, history, and mathematics are used in the work place and some in programming. One should have at least a general level in these areas. Also, part of college is falling on your face and learning to work with all sorts of people. I'd prefer to have someone fall on their face in college than to deal with a smart 19 year old that is just starting life and is not mature enough to live as an adult. And lastly, I managed a pizza restaurant after high school and then went to college. I never worked with females or non-whites until college. It was a great experience and in a multi-million dollar company I'd prefer someone that has been around and respects other cultures and genders.

Didn't the IT bubble burst in the last decade or two because people were getting certified when they were not qualified?

I’m an expert on how technology hijacks our psychological vulnerabilities. That’s why I spent the last three years as Google’s Design Ethicist caring about how to design things in a way that defends a billion people’s minds from getting hijacked. I am the Captain of my own ship, sir. Ooo! Notification blink!

Ah, yes, the token "white-hat" who gives plausible deniability to:
Google's own CEO, Erich Schmidt's, comments, at a tech conference in 2004, where he fantasized about his goals for Google: reported in USA Today:
"I keep asking for a product called Serendipity," he said, making up the name. "This product would have access to everything ever written or recorded, know everything the user ever worked on and saved to his or her personal hard drive, and know a whole lot about the user's tastes, friends and predilections." Oh, yeah: "don't be evil." 
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

This week I ended up with an advance copy of Influence Central’s new report called Kids & Tech: The Evolution of Today’s Digital Natives. The report—which is a subsection from a larger, ongoing study of 500 women across the USA—details findings on the way that kids are using technology and reveals several interesting insights. "39% of kids get a social media account at 11.4 years." That explains so much.

Since US sites aren't allowed to offer accounts to kids under the age of 13, we're teaching an entire generation of kids that it's OK to lie in order to get what you want.
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?

Dallas residents might be surprised to learn there were hundreds of natural gas leaks — many of them previously unknown — under their feet. When the Google mapping cars returned, we pat them on the hood and gave them a treat.

If you cast your minds back to the summer of 2012 then you’ll vaguely remember something about LinkedIn being hacked. Data was stolen and there were plenty of red faces in the social networks office, I’m sure. "OK. Let's make it ... abc12 ... 4. Nailed it."

China’s government fabricates about 488 million social media comments a year -- nearly the same as one day of Twitter’s total global volume -- in a massive effort to distract its citizens from bad news and sensitive political debates, according to a study. This is fine. Everything is fine. #ChineseGovernment #NoComplaints

Alphabet Inc's Google appealed on Thursday an order from the French data protection authority to remove certain web search results globally in response to a European privacy ruling, escalating a fight on the extra-territorial reach of EU law. "One nation does not make laws for another," said Dave Price, senior product counsel, Google.

The real reason why France wants a right to be forgotten law is because they want to find a way to bury the memory of: Blenheim, Oudenarde, Ramillies, Malplaquet, Rossbach, Vellingshausen, Minden, Leipzig, Waterloo, Sedan (1870), Chemain des Dames, Somme, Sedan (1940), and Dien Bien Phu.

They're not bugs, they're features.

That is so right!
Google cars decorated with insects!
PS. Why do Google cars need windshields? They need have no glass/transparent surfaces since the cameras can be mounted outside and feed their on-board computers.
