Big Red rolls out DB document handling, white-label cloud package – but customers warned to check out terms of service first Because the one thing I hear so often is, "how can I make my applications like Oracle do?"
I wonder if it comes with automatic support payment billing?

Well good! They (the customers) can fix their own bugs!

is it that bad ?

Many executives lament that software development seems like a “black box.” Let’s peek inside this box to see how you can influence developer velocity as executives and managers. An unladen developer?

May all of your most odorous bodily transgressions velocify themselves directly into the nasal orifices of executives (and others) who use language like 'developer velocity.'

GSMA has released a new report which has found that 95% of the world lives in areas with mobile network coverage yet 40% of people are still offline. "Math is hard"
OK, it was just my initial reaction to that headline. Makes more sense actually reading the article.

I had the same reaction. My thought was StarLink will eliminate the coverage gaps but there's still a cost associated with connections.

What if they simply do not care to be online?
When I go to a mountain cabin, one reason is to get away from all sorts of electronic media. When I go on a three week vacation in my car, sleeping in its back, I do not want any internet, no TV. I can go as far as to listen to some music on the radio, and I do bring my smartphone because people tend to fear that I am dead if I do not answer it (yes, I have had the police breaking into my house to 'save my life' because I didn't answer the phone when I was away), but I never make any outgoing calls myself when on vacation.
I could easily lots of people who would answer 'What for?' if you suggested that they get an internet connection. Mostly in non-Western countries, but even some within our own culture.

The main question remains: Over which distances can it beat a 60-ft container stuffed with 1 TB microSDXC cards?

I actually had a question like that on an exam for my networking class back in 1991 except it referenced a station wagon and 5.25 floppies.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

I'll wait for the November update cycle. That gives Microsoft a few weeks to work out the worst of the bugs.

Writer, lawyer, and programmer Matthew Butterick has some issues with Microsoft's machine-learning based code assistant, GitHub Copilot, and the way it is apparently mishandling open-source licenses. Who could have foreseen this happening?
OK, everyone outside of GitHub and Microsoft. But other than them...
