people can't manage to block "malware" on a Windows system but somehow manage to use a dev tools? and the idea that a Mac costs the same or less as a dell/hp is ludicrous. the cheapest MacBook air is $1000, while a Windows laptop is $500. sorry to destroy your ideology but at least be honest and say I prefer a Mac and can afford it suck windows can pound sand.
More likely their work with an outside consultant/firm.
we should consider the source and timing for sure.

Good day, I have nine years of working in Azure and have helped startups to federal agencies that have over 100K employees with their Azure infrastructure.
I have designed, implemented, tested, supported and reorganized Azure infrastructures.

They are in the same dc? Worst design evaaah
No offense taken. But isn't nothingness or no experience an experience? It seems you did experience something, that something might equate to nothingness or the void or oblivion but there was an experience? It sounds similar to "experiencing" a thought. It happens and we can all agree they do, but what is it to experience a thought? Can you smell, touch, feel a thought?
There can be no oblivion if you experienced it. I would suggest reversing the idea that conscience is part of a being and instead suggest that consciousness is inherit in everything because it is everything. Within or without a being.
I am a full-time freelancer (cloud arc not dev). I started cold turkey last April when my firm lost tons of gigs. I started on market places and through that built relationships with other firms that didn't have a cloud architect and they have come back to me with additional work. I have also landed gigs through contacts. Once I got the ball moving it has been mostly non-stop. The taxes and insurance aren't as bad as you might think. The back end work of invoices, taxes, expenses, contracts, so on can all be managed in one app so it isn't a nightmare. It's nice to be able to spot concerning projects and turn them down as opposed to being forced into a project you know is going to be a nightmare. I bill @ 110/hr with no problem. It has also let me spend time giving away my services to some non-profits and startups. I don't think it's right for everyone but I enjoy it.
At what point did Bill become an expert on everything? It's cute that he takes his little bag of books and secluded himself in his she-shed and reads. But honestly, why do we now trust him to be an expert on so many subjects when he hasn't even gotten an undergraduate degree in anything, let alone spent decades studying a field. I can't tell you how many books I have read by experts that later turned out to completely off base or wrong to a certain degree. Just because he chats with experts and reads books on subjects doesn't make him an expert, it makes him well informed but not an expert. I am an expert in what I do and have spent over a decade on it, and I am wrong or have to look things up all the time, am I missing something? Did he go back and get a doctorate that I missed? He seems to be an expert on too many subjects.
It's sad that your last point is the current state of affairs. My kids (in their 20's) have a completely differ idea of privacy, and are really ignorant of how much data exists on them.
"were" as in past tense? no longer happening? I have my doubts it has stopped.
This feature and fb's hate for it makes me seriously consider moving back to. iOS.
This is true of Gmail, once an address or account is deleted by its owner that email address is gone for good.
And any hardware protection that flows through a supply chain including just FedEx/ups/dhl can be compromised at the hardware level.
In Germany privacy is a real thing, in the US it's a figment of everyone's imagination.
They seem to operate on the method of doing evil until others make a stink about it.
next paragraph... "Under the C2E contract vehicle, the companies will compete for specific task orders issued by the CIA on behalf of itself and the 16 other agencies that comprise the intelligence community."
Mostly off topic but as an american, I much prefer the calmer way news casters in the UK speak when delivering the news over the overly dramatic, exaggerated, weird tone that is used in the US.
Who are they keeping this "hidden" from?
"The documents — reports sent to agency staffers..."
qw3rty01 is correct, the articles definition.
Wouldn't it be great if HBO provided us a link to their "important new data" but since they don't we can't look at it for ourselves.
Agreed, I am a freelancer making six figures married and my wife hasn't worked since we were dating. So according to their definition my wife is unemployed, not making a "living wage" and so am I. This is a perfect example of why I pay little attention to the news. They or their editor must have known this was bs but decided to publish it anyway for the clicks.
This methodology also applies to the 'magic quadrant' about 10 years ago I was working for a small company that was making some great software addons for a MSFT product. They were contacted by the company I am implying and were told they would like to include them in the upper right quadrant but since they were not a "member" they couldn't, if they became a member then the company would be included in the next release.
I heard this second hand from my CEO at the time.
I have ADHD, and I don't have the patience with myself to read enough of your reply to benefit my understanding of it.
They don't for standard picture but they do embbed their own metadata

You may be thinking of PhotoDNA which is used for different purposes
While I agree completely with the concept that alarms are almost worthless, I believe its automated when a sensor/camera alerts it flies to that area.
For the record, I would never allow this in my house. A dog is a much better deterrent than any alarm.
The day we bought the kids one of those mini indoor copters my cat almost tore my daughters ear off bc he was so frustrated that he couldn't kill it.
I worked with a casion who uses BLE to track you throughout their properties that is similar to this idea. The BLE along with their own data (w/l and how much) plus their app (https://www2.mgmresorts.com/app/) gave them every detail they needed to keep you playing slots. Headed for the front doors, boom free credit, headed to the elevators, free buffet, sitting by the pool for too long, new tables are opening, you get the idea. And of course since they own half the casions in vegas they can track you as you go to other casinos. Want to do fun stuff? Who is in your room with you? how long? where in your room? How long does it take you to get ready before heading to the show? What time did you go to bed / get up? What did you have for dinner, who did you have dinner with? Who did you chat with in the lobby and for how long? Where did they go after your chat? Where did you go? On and on. Not that they collect and use that data (see how I said collect and use?) but they could. They are only interested in your spending your money and could really care less who and how you have sex with or if you met up with a local coke dealer in the lobby, but cops might, it's all too much IMO.
Alot of you are devs, let your mind run wild with the data you could collect and sell, and then tell me if anything amzaon released yesterday isn't creppy.
