🎂🧠🎸 Countdown to Sixty – Part 2 is live 🧯🛰️ Birthday countdown update: T-minus a few days until I officially qualify as vintage hardware.I need to publish this before age hits the Delete key on my short-term memory. Today’s topic? The single toughest obstacle to decent security: human stupidity—not “not knowing”, but not knowing while loudly pretending you do. In forty years I’ve watched Web 2.0 deliver a cultural revolution (not a technical one): everyone became a publisher, the algorithm handed out megaphones, and confident error went viral. Add developers racing deadlines (hello COM+ era turning off security to ship…
Here we go. Today marks the beginning of my birthday countdown: four long rants (sorry, “reflections”) before the inevitable day when I officially turn 60.Now, you might think this is the time for solemn self-congratulation, tearful gratitude speeches, or perhaps a LinkedIn-friendly list of life lessons beginning with “Always…” or “Never…”. Forget it. At 60, I’m too bald to bend, too old to pretend, and too sarcastic to play the game of polished self-branding.This first chapter takes the shape of an ikigai autopsy, with me lying on the dissection table while four Japanese circles argue over whether I’ve wasted my…
Amici, colleghi, concittadini e voi che siete qui per il puro piacere di scrollare, confessiamocelo: viviamo in un mondo dove la serietà è spesso più un’arma che un valore. E non parlo di quella serietà che ci fa consegnare i progetti in tempo o pagare le tasse. Parlo di quella seriosità imposta, la stessa che fa inarcare un sopracciglio di fronte a una battuta, come se il destino dell’universo dipendesse dalla gravità del nostro post. 🤦♂️ C’è un tipo di persona, e ahimè ne incrocio fin troppi (spesso nel mio stesso settore, che triste ironia!, e sia qui che su…
Preface Let me turn back to a previous post I did 5 years ago. This year we have the 80th anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bomb, I think it is worth turning back to that moment: ____________ Hiroshima August 6th, 1945 Antonio Ieranò 08/06/2020 Editorials, Editorials in English At 08:14 and 45 seconds on August 6, 1945, the American bomber Enola Gay dropped “Little Boy,” the bomb that destroyed about 90% of the buildings in the Japanese city of Hiroshima. A devastating flash of lightning, the shockwave, lives broken. The devastation and rubble are there, but then… Then the rain and the…
🤖🚀 Managers vs. AI: Will There Really Be Only One Left?Are you already weary of doomsday predictions proclaiming, “AI is going to replace us all!”? 😱 And amidst the digital revolution, have you stopped to wonder: “Hang on, what about all those managers?”If you’ve pondered this conundrum while sipping your morning cuppa (or found yourself side-eyed by an algorithm lurking near the biscuit tin 🍪☕), my latest article is precisely what you need!I’ve tried to clarify (and poke a bit of fun at) how Artificial Intelligence may impact the various “types” of managers: from those who merely carry out orders…
🤖🚀 Managers VS AI: ne resterà uno solo?Certo, avete già sentito la profezia apocalittica: “L’AI ci sostituirà tutti!” 😱 E nel bel mezzo di questa rivoluzione digitale, c’è chi si chiede… “E i manager che fine fanno?”Se anche voi vi siete posti la stessa domanda mentre sorseggiate il caffè (o mentre l’ennesimo algoritmo vi ruba il posto alla macchinetta 🍪☕), allora il mio ultimo articolo fa proprio al caso vostro!Ho cercato di fare chiarezza (e qualche risata) su come l’Intelligenza Artificiale stia impattando i diversi “tipi” di manager: da chi segue gli ordini alla lettera 😐 a chi invece vive…
First They Came – by Martin Niemöller Martin Niemöller (1892-1984) was a German Lutheran pastor and theologian. Initially a supporter of Adolf Hitler, Niemöller became a critic of the Nazi regime when he realized its atrocities. He was arrested and imprisoned in the concentration camps of Sachsenhausen and Dachau from 1937 to 1945. After the war, Niemöller became an activist for peace and human rights. This is happening again First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because…
Ever felt the urge to laugh and cry at the same time? 😅 My new article about President Trump’s 2025 executive order definitely hits that nerve. It’s all about turning “independent” agencies into personal puppets—because apparently one person alone can interpret every law in the land! 🏛️⚖️ And full honesty? This situation scares me as hell. 😬 Find out how this order might flip the hashtag#RuleOfLaw into hashtag#RuleByLaw, why civil servants might need 🔥 fireproof suits if they don’t fall in line, and how this could rock global alliances (hello, hashtag#Europe!). If you’re into a blend of political humor, dark…
Inizio la giornata con un #rant, giusto per farmi detestare. Incomincio a pensare (solo da una ventina di anni invero) che uno degli ostacoli più grossi della “information security” siano gli esperti IT. In gran quantità sanno tutto, ma proprio tutto, dal bit al byte, dal chip al ciap. Tutto tranne quello che serve alla “information security” che richiede, crediatelo o meno, competenze specifiche che vanno al di la del tecnicismo ed abbracciano la comprensione del contesto. ecco ora potete pure insultarmi il vostro amichevole boomer bonobo di quartiere #quellascemenzadellasera #quellidelfascicolop Related posts: No related posts.
🚨 E quando l’IT te dice “tutto sotto controllo”, ma in realtà ce stanno a smanettà i cybercriminali! 🚨 Regà, ve siete mai chiesti che succede quando i Remote Monitoring e Management Tools, sti aggeggi che dovrebbero aiutà gli IT a fa’ er loro sozzo lavoro, finiscono in mano a chi nun ce dovrebbe mette ‘na pezza? Ve dico subito: è ‘n casino peggio de quanno te scordi la password e manco te ricordi er nome der gatto!Questi software dovrebbero gestì i sistemi da remoto, ma li hacker se li pappano come er panettone a Natale. Se intrufolano, installano AnyDesk,…
