OMG. That should be a criminal act, with the penalty that all those involved should be banned for life from every touching an electronic device again. That includes microwave ovens, cell phones, even digital alarm clocks. Probably refrigerators and stoves too.
Jeez, just wait til the EU here's about this!

ms said: users in your organization with Google Chrome will be able to take advantage of Microsoft Search, including being able to access relevant workplace information directly from the browser address bar And completely exposing your corporate network to a web browser isn't a security risk at all, is it?
I was wondering what google's take on all this would be, and why they weren't kicking up a fuss, but when you think of all the additional private (and corporate) data that this will make available to them via chrome, it's not so surprising.
The solution is easy, though:
• Step one: Get rid of chrome.
• Step two: Don't install the moulding pile of putrid pus that ms office has rotted into.

I thought Chrome blocked 3rd parties from installing and enabling extensions because too many other companies had done so for even more malicious reasons.

Hmmmm, assuming Google cooperated in implementing the feature and the push in the article is just (potentially) to people on domains being managed by group policy I don't have a major issue with it since that's into the land of the BOFHs.

Unfortunately not. Everyone running Office365 ProPlus will apparently get this new extension.
If you're on a managed domain, you can use Group Policy to block it. Otherwise, you have to mess around with the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\office\16.0\common\officeupdate]
"preventbinginstall"=dword:00000001 Microsoft to forcibly install Bing search extension in Chrome for Office 365 ProPlus users | ZDNet[^]

There are plenty of reasons to move traditional ASP.NET web apps -- part of the old .NET Framework -- to the new cross-platform direction, ASP.NET Core, but beware it will require some "heavy lifting," Microsoft says. So, remember to do your stretches first

In fact I had some personal training at home for my pet projects (desktop, wpf)....
I usually open the .csproj, replace with an empty default .NET Core project (since all files are automatically included), add project reference manually and then nuget package need for compilation... And it is quick in most case...
Took me one day to convert 31 projects!
Most of it was easy.. except a few little bits:
- had to slightly change some WCF and SOAP bindings
- some project target multitarget (netcoreapp3.1, net472) instead of single target netstandard2.1 (since while net472 doesn't support netstandard2.1, but it implemented the needed functionality)
- Program.cs and Startup.cs of the Web projects had to be tweaked (they used new interfaces, such as IWebHostEnvoironment instead of IHostingEnvironment, but are mostly compatible)
- Lastly I couldn't port UserPasswordCredential, which is really the only one pending unsolved problem, and it's required for secure and authenticated service to service communication for us so far

The leaked data included conversations between Microsoft support agents and customers which were recorded from 2005 to December 2019. Fortunately, most of them were people who couldn't figure out how to Google in Bing.
Only exposed for less than 24 hours, so I'm sure no one downloaded everything in that time.
Elasticsearch. Again.

Wow.
250 million instances of them telling people how to perform a clean boot is a Hell of a catch.

Data from over 213,000 coding tests revealed some IT skills hiring trends to look for in 2020. See what DevSkillers’ data reveals about recent IT trends from 49 different countries. Spoiler alert: JavaScript is popular
I was going to go with, "companies you probably don't want to work for are looking for..." (as I don't like the idea of an online test for hiring).

I'm shocked!
Does this mean that more web pages and databases are created than programs?
It doesn't seem possible!
