Roughly 38% of applications using the Apache Log4j library are using a version vulnerable to security issues, including Log4Shell, a critical vulnerability identified as CVE-2021-44228 that carries the maximum severity rating, despite patches being available for more than two years. What's the worst that could happen?

I wonder how many of those are at financial institutions or credit reporting agencies.

Am I the only one remembering ATM?
Not cash machines, but Asynchronous Transfer Mode. A physical level protocol designed for an end-to-end maximum latency of 300 ms. Globally.
The first version of the standard, 35 years ago, specified 155 Mbps and 620 Mbps user interfaces; 2.4 Gbps and 10 Gbps was for internal network switches. Like a telephone connection, an ATM connection was routed end-to-end at the physical level. The physical level also handled statistical multiplexing for virtual connections.
I have heard (no URL available) that there were IP routing networks using virtual ATM connections for single-hop routing between any two routers connected to the ATM network, significantly reducing latency and processing overhead.
But ATM fell as a victim to the Network Wars. I never saw any good technical reasons why ATM should fail - but a lot of network-political reasons. I really wouldn't object to an ATM revival ... (Alternately: If someone would provide really good technical arguments why ATM deserved to fail, I'd like to learn about it. But I strongly doubt that there are many people around today that know ATM well enough to really give it a critical assessment, and certainly not without being colored by the Network Wars.)

Why is the language developers and DBAs use to organize our data such a mess? Here are nine reasons we wish we could quit SQL, even though we probably won't. DROP *;

That was my original idea for the blurb: “tell me you’ve never written a real application without telling me you’ve never written an application.”
I wonder at these opinion columnists at times.

For hierarchically structured data, CODASYL databases might be an option.

I find his reasons strange, but SQL *is* a pretty clunky way for applications to interact with databases. For analysts, it is fine.

So what is the command line to make it a 'chartreuse' screen of death? And that command better have at least five esoteric switches. Bonus points if some of them directly affect everyday things in the OS.

As long as the QR code is white on blue, I'm happy.
(Lots of people are not aware that white on blue is shown in numerous practical tests to provide the highest level of readability. IBM didn't chose it at random, but for a very good reason. Black on yellow competes with white on blue, and a few tests show it to be better, but they are very close. So black on yellow traffic signs is not randomly chosen, either.)
