The widespread disruption caused by the recent CrowdStrike software glitch, which led to a global outage of Windows systems, has sent shockwaves through the IT community. For CIOs, the event serves as a stark reminder of the inherent risks associated with over-reliance on a single vendor, particularly in the cloud. The incident, which saw IT systems crashing and displaying the infamous “ blue screen of death (BSOD) ,” exposed the vulnerabilities of heavily cloud-dependent infrastructures.

Most corporate women’s advancement programs center on teaching women a predefined slate of skills purported to give them more control over their careers. But by taking this approach, companies may be unintentionally communicating a culture of conformity by asking women to change who they are to succeed. This leaves many women, especially senior women, feeling stuck, because strong leaders need to have the ability to set expectations, not just fulfill them.

IT leader and former CIO Stanley Mwangi Chege has heard executives complain for years about cloud deployments, citing rapidly escalating costs and data privacy challenges as top reasons for their frustrations. And he has seen some respond by moving workloads from the cloud back to on-premises data centers, a move they feel gives them better control over costs and privacy standards.

Automation has historically impacted blue-collar jobs first, whereas white-collar jobs benefited. The wave of remote work brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic further empowered white-collar workers with more autonomy through remote work. However, generative AI is changing this narrative. Remote workers are now more susceptible to automation due to their tasks being digital and thus more easily automated, but also indicates large potential productivity benefits.

Variety is the spice of life, as the familiar adage goes – but when it comes to delivering enterprise-grade software, too much variety, in the form of separate tech stacks, tools, and approaches, breeds complexity and risk. And things can heat up quickly. Delivering high-quality applications predictability and securely is far simpler when you cut back on variety for variety’s sake.

Research suggests making the decision to retire means grappling with three psychological issues. First, identity issues can loom large for any deeply engaged professional. Even a small step away from a career can make a person wonder who they are without it. Second, many older professionals resist leaving meaningful work. And third is the dread of losing the strong relationships that accumulate over the course of a long, successful career.

Assets refer to machines and physical objects, which are important aspects of the manufacturing industry mostly used in factories to carry out production activities. Often these assets consist of complex machinery and its operation and performance depend on several factors, which need to be monitored and may be adjusted as needed.

We're not going to look at code today, and instead, we're going to talk about a code metric. Specifically, "NPath complexity" NPath complexity is a good metric to track, and many static analyzers will do it. Formally written, it's defined: "The NPath complexity of a method is the number of acyclic execution paths through that method." Or, more simply, not counting loop iterations, this is how many branches you have in a single method.

Before containerization made it so easy to prepare images for virtualization, it was quite an art to prepare custom ISO images to boot from CD. Later these images were used to boot virtual machines from. In other words, ISO images were precursors of container images.
