The Week Was Awesome 19 Apr

Good grief it’s Friday already? Where did the week go?

1. Restore Saved Game?
In an amazing twist, can a 3D video game hold the key to restoring the Notre Dame cathedral?

2. What’s new with Big Blue: Power serve
You’ve got massive amounts of critical data across 3 sites. One entire site has just been shuttered, and to make things worse, a disk failed in another site. You grit your teeth in frustration but you’re not worried because you can still access that data. HOW?????

3. Hey there Ransom
Another victim to ransomware. How’s your security? Let me know if you need an assessment. I worry about you guys…

4. The kids are online
Do you have kids? Are you posting about your kids online? What does it mean to an entire generation whose lives are uploaded for others to see when they themselves don’t really understand the implications (and then again, neither do we)?

5. What Kenvi learne this week: It takes a thief
My mind was just blown when I learned the tricks of a master art thief… If you ever wonder how accurate those heist movies are, you can find out here. Also if anyone learns about any heists next week, PURE coincidence.
