ShipIt Day VIII was held on April 20 and 21st. Seventeen teams made up of internal associates had just 24 hours to create something innovative, usable, and value-adding. This quarter’s ShipIt Day was held at our new Innovations Campus in the Link Conference Center. We were excited to get to utilize the space for this event. Another awesome addition to this quarter’s ShipIt Day was our new game rooms.

They did not know it was impossible so they did it — Mark Twain Rules, somehow, always, seems to be a barrier to innovation. Status-quo is cultural protectionism The status-quo creates artificial scarcity. Because it promotes the lack of initiative It supports business as usual. The status-quo is opposed to disruption, to change, to innovation. It is opposed to improvement. It is the systemic manifestation of the resistance.

By now, on the net, on TV and around the world, there is nothing but talk about WannaCrypt: ransomware, or malware that can encrypt all the files on one’s computer and demand a ransom for unlocking them. -Continue to read the article on SerHack.me

I have long been inconsistent when creating Java Exception classes, in terms of how I name them. Having looked through the Exeptions that are supplied with Java, I see there is no real standard naming convention. I have found more exceptions with the form

Or why “do as you are told” is a bad idea. In 1964, Stanley Milgram back then a young researcher at Yale University, published the resultsa famous experiment known to this day as the Milgram Experiment. The set up is simple: The subject of the experiment takes part himself in a (staged) experiment supposed to study the impact of pain on memory and learning. For this, he is asked by the experimenter to administer increasingly strong electric..

Today, almost a year since the initial TrailDB open-source release , we are happy to announce the next major version of TrailDB, 0.6. The release is long overdue: this release is packed with major new features (and some minor bug fixes) that have been driven both by increasing internal use of TrailDB at AdRoll, as well as requests and contributions by the community. You can download and install the latest version by following the gettin....

I grew up (and currently live) in the city of Cambridge in Ontario, Canada. The city was formed when 3 smaller towns (Hespeler, Preston and Galt) amalgamated in 1973, but the towns have a rich history as some of the key centers for industry in Upper Canada during the 1800s and early 1900s. When I was Googling something related to the new light rail transit system currently being installed in the region, I came across a Wikipedia page whe..

Painting in Progress - from imagination As I return to the painting on my easel, reworking both the major figures and probably everything else as well, I am put to mind of a lesson by a former teacher, Carol Pylant . She told me to be paint over the edges of my foreground figures when working on backgrounds, so the backgrounds don’t get too “stiff.” Of course, this applies not just to edges. “If you painted it once, you can paint it ....

This template can be easily installed by replacing existing alert scripts inside /etc/icinga2/scripts. Update: I have replaced mail command with mutt due to an incompatibility of options among different Linux distributions. Also, I have added new color highlight feature for different states (ok=green,warning=orange a..

Visual Studio 2017 just received an update ( version 15.2 ). Among other nice things, this update brings full support for Python back into the official release of VS2017. As you might recall (see my old whiny post ), previously Python was only available with Visual Studio 2017 Preview (a separate install). I just upgraded my copy of Visual Studio, added the Python Development Workload to it via the VS Installer, and finally (and very hap..

I’m using omxplayer on the Raspberry Pi for video playback because it utilizes the Raspberry Pi’s hardware video decoding. Because the front-end is a separate application, I just need to remote control OMX Player to start and stop the video and figure out how far the video has played back already.

I've recently started using a VPN all the time (at least as much as possible). My more tinfoily nerd friends all recommended PIA so I signed up for that. There are some issues and frustrations I wasn't expecting so here's what I've seen so far. Extra-annoying captchas from ReCaptcha. It seems being on a VPN exit IP automatically classifies you for the most-frustrating setting of ReCaptcha. I've seen this even on PIA's own tech support f....

I have been upgrading a few projects from their original PCL profiles (now deemed obsolete) to the Net Standard platform specification. It turned out to be a relatively straightforward process, but it does have its small hurdles, especially so if in the meantime you also want to transition to the new, streamlined, .csproj format as the migration will leave you with a now obsolete project.json project. In this article, I will cover upgradi..

The OWASP Top 10 is a well known index of web app security vulnerabilities which is used every day by security professionals, but it doesn’t currently take into account how often those vulnerabilities are used by hackers. We dug through security breach records to see which vulnerabilities are exploited most frequently.
