Mainframes are part of the IOT world whether you like it or not and should be tested just like any other network connected device.

@npub13d8…ycpx the dumbass meme'd himself here. Hitched on to a sinking ship and, if we're lucky, won't also ruin the only viable space launch program the US has.

Take your covid tests, folks. Despite wearing a mask a lot (but not all the time, and a lot less outside the con), I popped positive.
Felt fine when i got home and tested at 1am, negative. Felt like I had some minor allergies this afternoon, so I decided to test before hanging out with family 30 mins ago, and it's a good thing I did.

Just so we're clear, Dade Murphy, aka ZeroCool only brought down 1,507 systems.
Crowdstrike: 8,500,000
Maybe crowdstrike should be banned from touching a computer till they're 18.

Honestly, using something like chatgpt for python is great for things like
"using argparse write me a script that takes 4 options, host, port, user pass, only host is required, port defaults to 21, user to anonymous and password anon@"
and it can shit it out faster than i can type it.
But more complex items you ask it to do its fails pretty hard.

@npub13d8…ycpx I thought it was mostly secret service who did all the work on those cases, not fbi (just finished reading the book about them)

I clicked on #asstodon and was pleasantly surprised by the posts I saw. I promise you won't be disappointed 😏

Ahahah, Boeing didn't get any orders for 737 max for the second month in a row. I'm sure the investors are really happy they cut corners and spent $450m on stock buybacks instead of QA now.
The shortsightedness of execs sometimes is mind-boggling

Boeing is the perfect example of what happens when greedy incompetent leaders take over after a company has been built up.
A company like boeing had inertia and people that still cared, so when bad leadership took over, it was fine. The Roman roads didn't all turn to rubble the instant Rome was sacked. But over time, things will progressively get worse in small increments. It took almost 20+ years for boeing to get here.
Maybe, and I'm just spitballing here, boeing should focus on their core business instead of stock buybacks.
