Apparently my company was sending non-anonymized user data and during a privacy audit by a legal company, they really gave us a threat of being sued up the ass. And we are a MASSIVE company. I can only imagine smaller companies not realizing that.

This is a shared experience.

Every single person in my circle gave the biggest wtf to it and when they finally got it, talk about how they rarely use their gaming PC.

I don’t think so. It’s been making the tech waves for the past year. As a multinational, my company went department by department, ensuring we clean up and remove anything potentially connected to Russia. I’m guessing it’s never been newsworthy enough for the average person.

Sweet! This is really cool and inspired me to try something.

Seriously.

1 website that forwards data to all the social media platforms.

This message has existed for 10 hours and a cryptobro hasn’t commented yet?

This hurts so much. Being in the tech industry, I see it everywhere.

I went to a AI conference and you can just sense how bogus it all feels. Like “Our patent pending AI system references billions of crowd-sourced data points to identify what you are craving for breakfast! Never think about breakfast again!”

And as a engineer speaking with other engineers, we all collectively shrug and just keep taking the money. I’ll AI your toaster for enough money IDGAF.

To this day, I still can’t believe how long Reddit defended underage porn subreddits. Literally do nothing and say “free speech” . Then suddenly a news article happens and then they finally take action.

Aw gross tig buddy cartoons yikes.

Can you share those links so I know what sites to avoid?

they finally think about the voters.

Okay so apparently you’ve been burying your head in the sand because it’s been nothing but progress in the past four years. From college forgiveness, to decriminalization, drop in violent crime, expanding overtime…

But nah it’s cool bro THANKS BRANDON or whatever y’all say

(White House does anything)

This person: Why are they interfering with the election?!

When I was a teen, the nearest health center was a LBGT-friendly one. And we got LOTS of free condoms.

Of course, I didn’t actually use any until much later in life. But still…

Not really what Valve did. Valve kept doing cool things that benefit the customer, while the competition actively drove them away.

I don’t follow social media. Is BlueSky feature rich and only getting better?

In my city, there’s a LOT of homeless addicts who abuse drugs. My city invested heavily in providing specialists who walk around with narcan and other supplies.

A few years prior to that, Law enforcement used to arrest these addicts.

I went to see HR a month ago and they had a post-it of their password for their password manager. We use passkeys too.

And this was after security training.

That was my take too.

Security training was something you know, and something you have.

You know your password, and you have a device that can receive another way to authorize. So you can lose one and not be compromised.

Passkeys just skip that “something you have”. So you lose your password manager, and they have both?

Tinfoil hat conspiracy coming up – the large quantity of layoffs meant security has been tossed aside.

1. Employed engineers not having the bandwidth, resources, time to bake in better security. Literally having to do more with less.

2. Fired engineers may had tribal knowledge on how something worked. Now only God knows.

3. Unemployed engineers are bored engineers. Not saying they did the deed, but maybe they discovered it.

Every conference/tech showcase is carefully staged to maximize investments.

Well, often times not Tesla.

The AI responses are so incredibly bad.

I searched for a video game walkthrough that has a similar name to a movie, and it GAVE ME THE MOVIE PLOT.

What a shit show.
