If you are adding a new bash script to accomplish some new task across repos, consider using the Gruntwork bash-commons assert_is_installed pattern to ensure the operator has any required binaries installed.

This is a pattern that ended up working out well for us as we wrote and executed more and more ambitious scripts across our many repos as a team: By breaking your target repos into separate batches, (batch1.txt, batch2.txt, batch3.txt) and starting with a few repos (or even one repo!)

Our hope is that eventually this repo will contain many useful generic scripts for common maintenance and upgrading tasks that everyone can leverage to save time.

Apple has been targeted in a $50 million ransomware attack following the theft of a trove of engineering and manufacturing schematics of current and future products from Quanta, a Taiwan-based company that manufactures MacBooks and other products for Apple.

The group had already begun posting the stolen images on April 20th, timed specifically to coincide with Apple’s latest “Spring Loaded” event, after Quanta refused to pay the $50 million ransom for the data.

The company hasn’t clarified the extent of the leak yet, but images leaked by REvil so far include schematics for Apple’s just-revealed iMac redesign — which, prior to yesterday, hadn’t been seen by anyone outside of Apple’s sphere of influence, lending credence to the fact that the documents are indeed accurate.

Why Is Everyone so Obsessed With Chrome?

Alas, I’ve been using Safari for at least the last ten years and it has been nothing but a fantastic web browser for both work and personal tasks.

But I also need some help, because I want to get to the bottom of why people are so obsessed with Chrome.

"This can lead to harms including violating rights to privacy and data protection; suppressing free speech; making it harder to expose corruption; and have a chilling effect on everyone’s autonomy, dignity and self-expression – which in particular can seriously harm LGBTQI+ communities, people of colour, and other discriminated-against groups," the MEPs write, calling on the Commission to amend the AI proposal to outlaw the practice in order to protect EU citizens' rights and the rights of communities who faced a heightened risk of discrimination (and therefore heightened risk from discriminatory tools supercharged with AI).

"The AI proposal offers a welcome opportunity to prohibit the automated recognition of gender, sexuality, race/ethnicity, disability and any other sensitive and protected characteristics," they add.

However the MEPs want lawmakers to go further -- warning over weaknesses in the wording of the leaked draft and suggesting changes to ensure that the proposed ban covers "all untargeted and indiscriminate mass surveillance, no matter how many people are exposed to the system".

We’ve redesigned and modernized the core experience to be cleaner, more inviting, and easier to use.

• Inspired new tab design: Floating tabs neatly contain information and surface cues when you need them, like visual indicators for audio controls.

The rounded design of the active tab supports focus and signals the ability to easily move the tab as needed.

The vast number of cybersecurity threats to water utilities have been known, but more recently attacks exposed these cyber vulnerabilities to the public.

These include network issues (flat networks with limited border protections); staff issues (no cybersecurity staff, unaware users, and over-privileged accounts); system issues (unpatched systems, unauthorized software, unprotected remote access, and weak passwords); and oversight issues (no audit logs and no monitoring).

• Obtain an independent cybersecurity assessment – An independent cybersecurity consultant does this for a living and is able to quickly and objectively identify the best path for creating a strong cybersecurity program.

Also an interesting thing that I caught: one of the rights granted to Apple by putting your podcast up is the ability for Apple to create and make available transcripts (though it looks like creators can opt out).

The biggest and best news: the Siri Remote is available for $59 on its own, and works with previous models of the Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD.

Customers who purchase an Apple TV 4K will continue to get a free year of Apple TV+ and three free months of Apple Arcade.

You know things have changed when one of the fastest ways to run Windows is to run it using Parallels Desktop on an M1 Mac and Microsoft brings in Apple Silicon support for its own Remote Desktop application.

Not only does it deliver 30% better performance than you get running Windows 10 VM on an Intel Mac, it also uses much less energy and will run most Windows apps like native Mac apps, though some 64-bit applications may not run as well as you expect.

Pretty soon, the best way to run Windows may well be to run it using Parallels Desktop on an M1X Mac.

Then one day Google decided to suspended the app without warning because of 'deceptive behaviour'.

but if youre running it like a business spending thousands of dollars / pounds on marketing the app its a really big serious issue.

If the real issue your app was suspended was due to a policy breach then its most important to make the developer understand without any doubt what that breach was.

Despite only being released in November, sales of the M1-powered MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and Mac mini now represent the majority of Mac sales, outperforming Mac computers powered by Intel processors, according to Apple CEO Tim Cook.

Cook says that the ‌M1‌ and Apple silicon "isn't just an upgrade, but a breakthrough," while touting Mac's industry-leading customer satisfaction.

With the launch of the first Apple silicon-powered iMac yesterday, Apple now sells four Mac computers powered by Apple silicon.

In an attempt to capitalize on the timing of Apple's "Spring Forward" event on Tuesday, a ransomware group posted on the dark web claiming it has obtained stolen schematics for upcoming products from Apple supply partner Quanta Computer.

Late last year, another Apple partner — CSAT Solutions — was hit with a ransomware attack that caused delays on repairs of computers that were sent in to Apple.

Apple assembly partner Compal was also subjected to a ransomware attack in late 2020, causing issues with its corporate network and potentially causing short-term delays in production for some of its clients.

“Lakeview Park is an excellent example of an early 20th century municipal park on Lake Ontario, a jewel in the City of Oshawa that comprises several historical buildings and structures, a cemetery, extensive landscaping, and both active and passive recreational facilities,” reads a report.

Clark says the Oshawa community understands the many benefits of preserving their cultural heritage, including supporting the economy, attracting visitors, contributing to the city’s character, strengthening its identity, and communicating pride in the community.

“We are hopeful that the city will choose to expand its protective policies and proactively manage change so that properties of cultural heritage value, despite their ownership, may also be designated and thereby protected for the benefit and enjoyment of Oshawa’s present and future generations.” Courtney Bachar, Local Journalism Initiative Reporter, The Oshawa Express

Apple today announced the next-generation iPad Pro with the same M1 chip found in the latest Macs, Thunderbolt and USB4 support, 5G connectivity on cellular models with mmWave support in the United States, and more.

Exclusive to the new 12.9-inch iPad Pro is an all-new Liquid Retina XDR display, with up to 1,000 nits of full-screen brightness, up to 1,600 nits of peak brightness, and a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio.

Thunderbolt supports 10Gbps Ethernet, high-performance accessories, and high-resolution displays like Apple's Pro Display XDR at full 6K resolution.

If AirTag is separated from its owner and out of Bluetooth range, the Find My network can help track it down.

The Find My network is approaching a billion Apple devices and can detect Bluetooth signals from a lost AirTag and relay the location back to its owner, all in the background, anonymously and privately.

If a lost AirTag is found by someone, they can tap it using their iPhone or any NFC-capable device and be taken to a website that will display a contact phone number for the owner, if they have provided one.

Cupertino, California Apple today announced the most powerful and advanced iPad Pro ever, pushing the limits of what’s possible on iPad.
