Over 5.4 million Twitter user records containing non-public information stolen using an API vulnerability fixed in January have been shared for free on a hacker forum. I'm sure they'll get right to fixing that
Yes, this all happened before the purchase.

Don't worry. Musk has vouched that they were all bots.

I am of the opinion that Twitter execs desperately wanted to be bought by Musk and did a massive rug pull.

I should first clarify that I would never come out against the idea of writing tests for your code. An abbreviated list
Ignoring the horror of the title, of course.
|
|

This article makes the common mistake that tests are Unit Test, or tests of small pieces of code.
With Test First, the first tests you write should be at the Specification or Requirements level.
Tools such as SpecFlow and Cucumber are great ways to do this.
Then, as you start to start creating things to implement the requirements, you add tests for the sub-requirements being implemented. Then write just enough code to make the tests work. I have found that I write around half the code, and complete projects in 1/3 to 1/2 the time as colleagues who just start coding. Writing high level tests forces you to get a better understanding of what you are going to implement without getting sidetracked by coding and implementation details.
Also, if requirements change, you change the relevant tests, and fix the ones that no longer pass.
In many cases, you don't need to test the low-level methods and classes if the higher-level requirements/tests cover the full functionality, error-handling, and edge cases.
In reality, who cares how the code is implemented if it meets the requirements. In fact, by not testing the actual methods, it much easier to refactor and re-architect a code base.
Remember, job is not to write code, but to implement required functionality and quality, as defined by the project/customer/contract.

Probably the most frustrating thing that happens to me as a developer is getting stuck. Get some friends to push?

The April 2021 leak exposed the phone numbers, locations, and birthdates of Facebook users on the platform from 2018 to 2019. That should make them think about privacy more than the last 50 fines

276 million dolars for leaking data of 533 million users
That means not even 50 cent por user leaked?

JetBrains Aqua, now available in preview, is a new IDE focusing on test automation and integrating a number of distinct tools that are at the core of an automation engineer's daily routine Does the IDE also allow you to speak to fish?
I'm not sure why this didn't just get rolled into their other IDEs, but here you go.

Microsoft is likely to face an EU antitrust investigation as regulators intensify their scrutiny into its practices in a case triggered by Salesforce.com’s workspace messaging app Slack Stop me if you've heard this one before

Quote: Slack urged the EU competition enforcer to order the U.S. software giant to separate Teams from the Office Suit and sell it separately at fair commercial prices.
Slack had better be careful what they wish for. One of the biggest competitors in the market is Discord, which has a free version good enough for 99% of uses. 😲
I would laugh so hard if forced to do what Slack wants, Microsoft makes everything in Teams free unless someone wants to pay a few dollars a month to add custom company logo emoji to the chat. 🤣
Then I'd start sobbing because doing so would make it more likely that PHBs would decide Teams is a better value* than Slack and Zoom. 😭
- For values that don't include things like actually working well, but these are PHBs we're talking about. 🤦🏽♂️

That is EXACTLY what happened at my job, except the "techinical" people got to keep Slack (for now at least)
Teams' meetings suck rocks. If you don't have the window maximized screen sharing is blurry. Never was like that on Zoom.

Fortunately the only person at my current employer who'll admit to liking Teams isn't in the chain for deciding on tools. Our sales/etc people say it's something they only use when forced to by overly restrictive customer firewall settings. Otherwise we use a mix of slack and zoom. Mostly slack on my half of the company with Zoom just for meetings; our corporate overlords use Zoom much more extensively.

This is a video driver issue. I had similar problems with Zoom running on Intel video hardware in both Dell XPS and MS-Surface Pro systems. Zoom even noted that they knew about the issue.
Solution: update your video drivers.

Teams appears to work OK for our small (<10 people) meetings. What parts of the application don't work for you?

I don't use it. Complaints from people I know mostly are about the quality and reliability of calls or design features they find user-hostile but can't change or disable.
