The marketing-style waffle of the article doesn't, by any means, cover the fact that it's talking bollocks.
You could do the same by holding the winkey and hitting R, then typing "rstrui" -- or, indeed, by hitting Ctrl+Z -- and then swaddling it in fancy talk and illogical explanations.
"Going forward through time to a previous state" != "Going back in time".
Mind you, should we expect people who can't tell their "packs" from their "pyramids" to be able to tell their @rses from their elbows?

In other words, "Undo" is not actually going back in time.

Don't know who Grumpy Old Scribe is, but he seems to have fixated on a closed system . . . to which I mean he wrote a story for himself . . . which feeds his (her?) own version of the complaint needing a remedy. Along, alas, with some logic that, well, isn't logical.*
On the other hand - much of it is a nice writing style - so you post wasn't wasted.

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?

Yes, but "quantum bullshit". It's both 'bull' and '$h1t' at the same time.

Multiple CAs have misissued over 1.2 million TLS certs with weak 63-bit serial numbers, instead of the standard of 64 bits. 63 bits ought to be enough for everyone

Except even using 64-bits, half the certificates would have zero for the top bit. So how do you tell the difference between a random number without the top bit set and a random number with the top bit forced to 0?
|
|
|
|
|
Easy! Use the bottom bit as a boolean flag to indicate which condition it is! 
|
|
|
|
|
...and don't forget another bit for parity - so we're down to 61 bits already?

According to new research from data protection specialist Veritas Technologies, employees are losing two hours a day searching for data, and data management challenges are costing businesses as much as $2 million a year. Have you checked the SharePoint? How about Slack? And your Inbox?

I guess if you consider pointless youtube videos, and reading facebook friend posts "data". I buy that.

I was thinking something along the same kind of lines, today.
I'm back at a major petrochemical company (that shell remain nameless) for a quickie contract, and the new coffee machines that they've acquired (globally, because that's how they do things) take forever and a day!
If they got machines that took ten seconds less to spew out brown mud, it would quite literally save them millions.
I'll have to include a clause in my next contract with them that puts me in charge of coffee-machine purchasing, and gives me a percentage of the savings, as commission.
