Two-factor authentication is coming to Google accounts whether you want it or not. Are you sure you're sure you are who you say you are?
Yes, I've posted about this before. But that was the plan/warning, now they're doing it. Plus, slow news day.

One thing that I have to agree with them (no, no... I am not ill or something like that).
Email Addresses are the basis for many other logins / services. They should be secured best possible and I think 2FA is a big security improvement in a relative easy form for the user.
But... (yeah, there is always a but) I really hope they do it better than other places, just in case there is a problem with the external source of authentication.
A friend had problems with the phone and had to change it. Regaining access to some online things was a 1,5 month nightmare.

I wonder how they are going to handle IoT devices that use a Google account. For example, YouTube on Roku and Smart TVs.

They might get stuck with the backup method - Google phones you with a six-digit code to type in. Hopefully just once.

More likely they just have one of their apps on your phone show a "is this you? yes/no" prompt instead. That's been enabled for my work google account for a while now; on the plus side it's more convenient than a code. On the minus-ish side it's tied to my work tablet which is turned off 99% of the time so it's a bit slower.

What if you don't have a smart phone? Or you don't want to give them your phone number?

Then it’s print off a set of recovery keys (I think I have 10 somewhere). After that, it might be migrate to Outlook

One of Visual Studio 2022’s key investments is in helping you personalize Visual Studio so that you can code the way you want. I heard that colouring the projects purple makes them run faster

That'll be a separate series of blog posts, not an afterthought to the product announcement. You should know that by now.

I just spent two days on VS 2022 RC3; I have a last check to do, but it seems CppUnitTestFramework is broken. I can't compile any test project.
Maybe that "RC" thing should've rang a bell...
I had a go for modules, as well. I came to the conclusion that I must miss something important about them, but now it seems that my testing system was faulty. Maybe they're not. Or...
Apart from this tiny detail, nice colors, for sure... But nothing really functional beyond cosmetics.

The group is using a new Wyoming law that legally recognizes them as a corporate entity to help speed along the process. I'd think it hard to build a house on a blockchain

Good code quite frequently comes under fire. Managers explicitly or implicitly pressure developers to cut corners in order to “move fast”. "One defends when his strength is inadequate; he attacks when it is abundant."
|

My snarky sharkey comment is that people have to first write good code. I think the problem is more that managers don't put enough pressure on devs to write good code, in fact they don't even much care. At worse, I've agreed with my manager when he says "just fix it so the customer is happy and then go back and make it good code." And yes, we are definitely encouraged to go back and make it good code, without any repercussions. In fact, I tend to find it's my peers that pressure themselves into "moving fast" without any direction from management to do so!

You probably are the exception that confirm the rule...
My own experience (and what I have seen around being external in other places) is pretty different to yours.

Your and your managers' solution was also ours, and it was enforced through code ownership. A kludge was allowed in released code, but the code owner would refuse to merge it into the development branch.

On Oct. 25, the science instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope went into safe mode, according to a brief statement released that day. "I'm just a poor old man. My legs are grey. My ears are gnarled. My eyes are old and bent."

It's not the Hubble. The universe went dark.
