White Collar Union Cards.
(Think the construction industry. The pumbers union card doesn't prove you can install pipe correctly, but you're not going to be working at a union construction site without one.)
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?

Amid general political divisiveness these days, it appears plenty of us would be happy to have robots make the tough decisions instead. Apparently 75% of Europeans have better politicians than I have

I suspect 3 of the 4 people polled on this question were politicians.
|

|

And that 25% is in the UK, so it doesn't really count, any more.

A report from WhiteSource examined security vulnerabilities in some of the most popular programming languages and looked at the trends of high security vulnerabilities over the years. There are no secure programming languages, only secure developers?
Well, not counting PHP. It deserves to be on the insecure list.

|
|
|

Aw, give credit where it's due: PHP is becoming more secure.
Because no-one wants to use it, any more.
Extinction guarantees security.

Pointless article based on pointless database query pointlessly points out the pointlessness of said query and fails to make a point in the process.
(Yes, I could have stopped that sentence after the first word but I felt the need to vent ...)

At least they admitted they were writing about a garbage fire mid-article. Baby steps and all that.

Google has been fined $1.69 billion by European regulators, who claim the U.S. tech giant abused its dominant position in search to force third-party sites to favor its own ad network while freezing out rivals. Live by the ads, die by the ads
Pretty soon, they'll be talking about real money

What do they care?
It's probably not a 20th of the taxes they're avoiding paying.

Give the GDPR police a bit more time. The expected provcoataurs have reported all the usual suspects to the assorted authorities claiming the usual suspects policies aren't in compliance. We can expect assorted EUcrats to be taking a number of multi-billion dollar withdrawals from the Bank of Silicon Valley over the next few years.

Maybe they'll put it in a updated version of a vending machine. A smart machine that will try to upsell you when you make a purchase.

The second half of that sentence (from the incorrect "it's") was exactly what I copied out of the article.
I was going to comment that I'd have to remember it for meetings.
