Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth.

Even the all-powerful Pointing has no control about the blind texts it is an almost unorthographic life One day however a small line of blind text by the name of Lorem Ipsum decided to leave for the far World of Grammar. The Big Oxmox advised her not to do so, because there were thousands of bad Commas, wild Question Marks and devious Semikoli, but the Little Blind Text didn’t listen.

She packed her seven versalia, put her initial into the belt and made herself on the way. When she reached the first hills of the Italic Mountains, she had a last view back on the skyline of her hometown Bookmarksgrove, the headline of Alphabet Village and the subline of her own road, the Line Lane. Pityful a rethoric question ran over her cheek, then Continue reading

Deploying Code to Devices Through your NMS

 
 

note: It’s come to my attention that WordPress is truncating some of my posts so that the right hand side is blocked by the side bar. My apologies for the this. I’ll get it fixed ( or more likely move to GH pages ) as quickly as possible. Thanks for your patience

@netmanchris

 

If you’re luck enough to have an NMS as powerful as HPE IMC then you already have a very capable system which has a ton of APIs that you probably didn’t even know about. IMC isn’t the only NMS which has APIs these days, but it’s the one we’re going to be looking at here.

We’ve spent the last few posts ( here, here, and here running through creating some network configurations through the Jinja2 templating language.

There are at least a couple of immediate benefits to this approach:

  • Consistency in the configuration between devices
  • Accuracy in the commands going into your devices

But the one large draw back is that you’ve still got to cut and paste that configuration into your device somehow, which is not the ideal scenario. We’re trying to get away from touching our devices.

Windows 10 calls home a lot; Russia hikes tech tax and intends to switch to Linux

“We are breeding the cow and they are milking it” - German Klimenko, Vladimir Putin’s new Internet czar on Google, Microsoft, and Apple doing business in Russia  Keith Weller, USDA / Wikimedia When it comes to high tech, American companies dominate the Russian market and, perhaps not surprisingly, that doesn’t site well with the Russian government which would prefer to see homegrown offerings such as Yandex and Mail.ru get more market traction. The consequence, according to Bloomberg, is a plan by the Russian government to increase the taxes the American tech giants by 18 percent. To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Database for Microsoft Careers mobile site was leaking data, vulnerable to attack

If you want to work at Microsoft, then you likely have visited Microsoft Careers. The backend database for the mobile version of Microsoft’s jobs portal was misconfigured, exposing user information and leaving the site vulnerable to attack.Security researcher Chris Vickery has a knack for exposing leaky databases such the one that put 13 million MacKeeper users at risk, another which exposed personal information of 191 million voters, yet another held 18 million voter records with targeted profile data, and one that exposed 140,000 class and student records from Southern New Hampshire University; he also discovered a leaked Hello Kitty database with 3.3 million user accounts, some belonging to kids. This time, Vickery said he found another misconfigured MongoDB database which exposed registered users’ information and had write-access to the contents of the database.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Minus 10 makes minus 8 seem balmy

Regular readers may recall that a year or so ago I took a moment away from this blog’s typical fare to note that it was minus 8 degrees outside, also known as “pretty nippy for these parts.”This morning, as you can see in the picture above, it’s minus 10.And I did the math after my fingers thawed out.Now obvious caveats: Minus 10 isn’t considered all that cold in some places. Where you live, for example, I’ve heard tell that at minus 10 water doesn’t even bother to freeze.In Massachusetts, however, minus 10 is wicked cold, as in I’ve lived here for more than half a century and can’t recall ever being outside when the thermometer was reading double-digits below zero.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Picasa is finally going lights off! What’s next..


Google Inc. yesterday, finally announced axing of the Picasa Desktop app (no more updates to it) and "read only" access to Picasa Web Albums starting 1st May 2016. Although quite brutal, this hasn't been unexpected. I am however one of the many people who loves Picasa Web Albums and even Google+ photos.

A Lifescape Inc. technology after being acquired by Google was released as Picasa in 2002. As many other Google services Picasa has finally become yet another service to be axed out to promote its newer counterpart in photo sharing & organizing - Google Photos. Picasa brought in online photo backup and sharing space a new perspective. Many others have followed suite (Flickr, 500px..). The picasa desktop application was very handy in quickly exporting and importing pictures to and from the web. Organizing pictures was a breeze. Picasa came as both a paid and a free service.

Photo sharing functionality has been moved to different apps/services within Google Inc. ever since. I remember a similar move couple of years ago when I received a mail stating that picasa web albums were being migrated to Google+, Google's social networking platform. Google+ has its own story and Continue reading

Watson 2016?

The Watson 2016 Foundation is an independent organization formed for the advocacy of the artificial intelligence known as Watson to run for President of The United States of America. It is our belief that Watson’s unique capabilities to assess information and make informed and transparent decisions define it as an ideal candidate for the job responsibilities required by the president.- Watson 2016 Foundation Okay, so it's a publicity stunt by IBM but isn't it an interesting idea? Just imagine Watson, IBM’s AI computer system that beat humans playing Jeopardy, in the role of President and Computer-in-Chief. Decisions would be made incredibly fast based on a vast corpus of facts and knowledge … or would they? Is it possible to provide an enormous  library of information for Watson to chew on that wouldn’t have political bias built in? Would it be possible for Watson to filter out bias automatically? Perhaps the best place to start is to give Watson a cabinet post, say, secretary of energy and see how that works out. To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
