This is from an official AWS webinar. I understand that it's a demo, but people are dumb and they will copy/paste code all day long. No one should ever do something like this, especially in a demo. Use os.environ['TOKEN'] instead and don't have tokens in your code. #cybersecurity #aws

Shows how important it is to be on top of #cybersecurity news when you work in IT. Doing regular monthly updates is nowhere near enough.

I find this article is overly critical. Of course I think we should be supporting Canadian owned businesses first, but international efforts that decide to build in Canada should be next, and far ahead of any US initiative. I think this is a good thing. #canadasky betakit.com/nokias-ottaw...

I am by no means a prominent public intellectual, but my inbox is increasingly filled with messages from people who have been convinced by sycophantic chatbots that they have discovered revolutionary theories that entirely upend our scientific understanding of the universe.
