Black holes are nature’s fastest data-scramblers, and new research suggests that secrets thrown into them may be more secure than previously thought. Good news for those of you using black holes to encrypt your data

Quote: ...One school of thought holds that information does escape from black holes in the form of photons emitted via a process known as Hawking radiation. This theory received some corroboration in 2019, but the jury is still out...
Quote: ...Assuming that black holes do encode information in Hawking radiation, they showed that when a message is sent into a black hole, its pieces can be rapidly recovered by capturing a few of the emitted photons... Well, isn't that conclusive! < _insert_sarcasm_regarding_immediate_usefulness_here >

In fairness, they are working from theory alone. Even if we could create a black hole in the laboratory, we certainly wouldn't want to do it anywhere near the Earth (or possibly - the Solar System), so experimental work will have to wait on major advances in space travel technology.

Security consultants are very similar to black-hole...
There is no way the report will come back all green (even you just fixed all the red/yellow issues from last week)...

Isn't it nice to have the "experts" validate what everyone already knows? (Like when the weatherman comments about it raining in Seattle)

No matter how little code is involved, nine times out of 10, IT managers need to stay on top of what users are doing with application development. Write someone a program, and you've got a support problem for life

Because in 9 out of 10 are the managers who bring the problems to the application development.
I have had times when even going with concrete "this or that" questions no answer received (damn, at least throw a coin... I just want you to say something because it is your damn call)
Or the opposite, when you want them to say nothing because "this is only going to bring problems, that would be better" and they managed to make it even worse...
If the manager is good, then it is really nice and I want him to watch over me, but sadly most of the times, I prefer to go "unmanaged" than to be misguided or hindered.

Only a third of consumers trust 'big tech' companies more with their data compared to smaller, independent or local companies according to a new study from API management platform Axway. And many of them post about their mistrust on Facebook and Twitter

When something is for free... it very probably is, because you are the product.
The problem is, the people still goes for "free" or just have no ing clue...
