Almost all applications contain at least some open source code, and 48% of all code bases examined by Synopsys researchers contained high-risk vulnerabilities. We're going to need more eyes
And at least that in closed source vulnerabilities

Let's integrate it (although I probably won't even use the majority of it).

no login password
no file encryption
its just left on all the time
all this software has know vulnerabilities
blah blah
but they never include the killr robots with the lasers that I have stationed around it with the 3 ton vault door🤷
"blah, we only check the software vulnerabilities"

The other 16% wasn't audited for vulnerabilities.

Now most of us can access our balances, make transfers, and complete other virtual banking tasks with a quick Face ID scan, a fingerprint scan, or by speaking a specific phrase out loud. Say "This is bad" to empty bank account

:bigfacepalm:
And then they say that passwords are not secure...

When you create a WinForms Form or User Control with the WinForms Designer in Visual Studio, it does not have a special definition or file format like XML or HTML to represent the user interface. Fingers crossed that it breaks nothing

Affected PCs weren’t able to upgrade this time, but it’s the second in less than a year that Microsoft has made this mistake. Did it include coupons to get a new computer?

Maybe it is a tacticc of the marketing dept.
Let's elephant users out with an update that ends in error, all the people that can't restore easily will get pissed off and they might end buying a new hardware to avoid it failing the next time we have the "mistake".

As if KMS hasn't been turned inside out like a sock many, many times. Why bother with an upgrade when you can have a fresh install for free?

I'd agree with you if Microsoft didn't have their track record of releasing buggy software

How did our industry sink to disrespect developers so badly, and how can we change the narrative? When you care enough to compile the very best

Mmmm... I don't think disrespect has to do with being a dev or not.
I might have been hated, but I was mostly respected by all the people I had to work with. Of course there were exceptions, but those guys were anyways lost cases.

Anyone (publicly) disrespects me: they are a pebble in my shoe ... I will shake my shoe out, or, if necessary, burn the shoe, and put on another shoe ... or, go barefoot.
Someone who shows me my technical limitations with positive intent, reveals my errors, reminds me how outdated and limited my skill set is (an outcome of life choices I made) in the last 15 years ...
If I react by feeling disrespected: that's in my head, my ego, not my shoe.
The real-world scenarios I have witnessed in software development include:
1) someone getting hired who turned out to be incapable of becoming productive in a busy team
2) old timers resistant to change as a fresh crop of managers, programmers, came in and new goals and strategies put in place.

Google was one of the companies to require employees to return to the office. Now they don't have sufficient office space. Karma strikes again.
