Members of the Five Eyes (FVEY) intelligence alliance warned today that APT29 Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) hackers are now switching to attacks targeting their victims' cloud services. Everyone's moving to The Cloud!

Today, the White House Office of the National Cyber Director (ONCD) released a report calling on the technical community to proactively reduce the attack surface in cyberspace. Oh, now they tell us
|

|

And of course they have explained how to do it in the following pages... haven't they?

If The White House can't tell us how to do it, who can?

Going into detail (this was actually released last year), they're specifying software written for the Government. They don't want C and C++ because of the inherently impossible task of verifying memory correctness when using null terminated buffers for everything.

Hard to believe a press release dated Feb 26 was last year already
But yeah, I know he did an executive order on this back in October - I had that in the newsletter as well.
Maybe it's just a sign of how slow the White House is on releasing press releases of his executive orders?

More likely our dementia patient President forgot he had already done this. (And yes, based on Biden's speeches in the 90s vs. the 2000 campaign vs. now, Joe Biden is suffering from advanced dementia of some form.)

I happen to doubt that it's dementia. I think it's some kind of unique disorder that's due to the brain surgeries he's had.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

The ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop concept even comes with a built-in drawing tablet. Lenovo just needs to find something worth seeing on the other side. The usefulness is as clear as the screen

Well done, sir.
I am saddened that one never came close to my brain.

Benchmarks play a crucial role in driving informed decisions for users and vendors by separating science from marketing. You mean SELECT * FROM table isn't fast enough?

When we outsource cognitive tasks to technology – such as flying a plane, navigating, or making a judgement – research shows we may lose the ability to perform those tasks ourselves. I can't even remember how to write a physical letter

"Hotpatching" originated in Windows Server, cuts way down on update reboots. "Fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again"
My memory is as faulty as always, but I remember them saying this with the original NT 4 release, and either Weven or Vista (or both). Maybe even Weleven?

Oh, perfect... So now the system will get broken while we are working?

I seem to remember this promise with XP SP3, Windows 7, and Windows 8. However, there really are fewer patches requiring a reboot each month. The problem is there is still one patch that requires it each month.
