#37, "Hard Work Does not Pay Off," caught my eye, immediately: [^]
«When I consider my brief span of life, swallowed up in an eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there; for there is no reason why here rather than there, now rather than then.» Blaise Pascal

Their definition of "hard work" appears to be related solely and only to the hours spent in the workplace, which implies that they don't know what hard work is.

You know that your life sucks when there are 97 things everyone in your occupation should know. Not 3, not 5, and not even 10. It just had to be 97.

Last year Bryan Johnson, founder of the online payments company Braintree, starting making news when he threw $100 million behind Kernel, a startup he founded to enhance human intelligence by developing brain implants capable of linking people’s thoughts to computers. Would that be USB, Thunderbolt, or coax?

Not sure that's such a grand idea. Do we really want to expose full enormity of people's stupid thoughts?

Have you heard of Russell Brand? 
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

That could bring a whole new meaning to the term 'IO error'!

Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.

An Oregon sportswear company is suing its former IT administrator, alleging he left backdoor accounts on their network and used them more than 700 times to search for information for the benefit of its new employer. Maybe he just thought he still worked there?
Probably wondered where his cheques were

Don’t Repeat Yourself (DRY) is a touchstone principle of software development. It’s often understood to inveigh against duplication of code. This idea brought to you by the Department of Redundancy Department

I don't find his arguments very persuasive.
With regard to NPM, there is the option of installing a package using the -g or global option. This installs the package globally so it is available to other applications.
And why repeat code just because it is POC code? Surely you can remove duplication whilst the code is POC?
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

Ah! That's where we've all been going wrong!
Methinks the man's neural implant firmware has been out-sourced to Banagalore.

In an advisory sent to enterprises across the US, the Department of Homeland Security’s US-CERT group is warning that security products which perform HTTPS interception might weaken a company's overall security. Apparently they're not clear on what the S stands for in HTTPS
|
|

|

My company just started using ZScaler (one of these HTTPS intercept services). Hopefully, this will make some impact on our security team.
Story time: I live very close to the office (almost walking distance). I've never worked from home all the time while employed by this company (outside of one-off need-to-be-home-for-delivery type stuff). The day after we implemented ZScaler, I submitted a request to work from home 2 days week. Was approved. Those two days of the week are -each- more productive than the other 3 days combined, because, as it turns out, having every HTTPS call routed halfway across the continent and DPI'd before being sent to the "real" destination takes a tremendous toll on network speed. Who'da thunk?
You would not believe how many developer tools break when an impersonating certificate sits between you and the real server.

That's WikiLeaks reaching a whole new level of low. Tantamount to blackmail.
The fact is that they are actually damaging the user's of those tech companies products by doing this, not the tech companies themselves. About time someone started an alternative to WikiLeaks that actually involved ethics, rather than an ego-trip for a questionable individual.

The tech companies deal with (and compromise themselves for) governments who issue death threats to Assange and those he works with.
I'd cut him some slack for playing hardball (and not hold my breath for a more ethical group to rise up and also do the public favors for free).
