Source code from exposed repositories of dozens of companies across various fields of activity (tech, finance, retail, food, eCommerce, manufacturing) is publicly available as a result of misconfigurations in their infrastructure. Does this count as 'open-source'? (Or just 'opened source'?)
"Kottmann believes there are thousands of companies that expose proprietary code by failing to properly secure SonarQube installations."

We’d assume at this point that every smartphone user knows that their touchscreen is one of the nastiest devices they own. Coming soon: headphones that don't need a head
Or keyboards that don't use keys?
Powercords without power?

Meh, powercords without power are passé. I've got a couple of boxes of 'em if you'd like one.

Looks really cool, but I wonder if this can compete with other established languages such as Malbolge, Brainfuck and Whitespace.
I might use it in my next project, in favor of LOLCODE.
Most of my code is currently written in Whitespace, but best tool for the job and all that

I do hope you're printing all your source code off for long-term storage though.

Garmin’s fitness wearables remain disconnected after almost a day And now no one knows where they are

This one is really puzzling. For the last 4 days I've been unable to automatically upload my rides to Strava (which has a licence to connect to Garmin's APIs) and I keep wondering "what's taking them?".
There servers were compromised. Databases and server files encrypted. All a big mess. And yet, I'm fairly sure they still control their DNS and they, I hope, can still do clean deploys of their codebase and database restores of their (offsite?) backups.
And yet they still aren't up. So what's missing? Are their backups also compromised? Have they lost access to their DNS? Or lost access to the code that runs their systems itself? It's an odd one and I'm sure the post-mortem will make for interesting reading for all those in DevOps.

FYI: You can manually upload .fit files from your garmin device to strava
They need to make certain all their systems are clean; this takes time, I would imagine their are also working with 3rd party to validate that their systems are all sanitized.
(and working with their insurances and lawyers to make certain they will not be sued.)
I'd rather be phishing!

Yeah, I've been doing that, but Strava only shows the basics: power, speed, elevation, distance and HR. It doesn't pick up any Garmin IQ app fields like SmO2 or power dynamics.

You can do the same with smartphone apps, too. Just download beforehand the map for the area you're going to.

Depends on the app.
With Google Maps, that does not work well. If you do not believe that (since Google offers such downloads), try it yourself. Put your device into "flight mode", and then check. Great experience when even large rivers (like Rhine) are missing. No restaurants on the map either. Your "my places" collection not available. Etc.
True, with e.g. Osmand, that works.
