The U.S. has long not invested into education, but it seems to be entering a new era where over 40% of the populist truly thinks it's all ivory-tower, pie-in-the-sky, will-never-need-it bullshit.

I work in a university system. I was told tonight there will be huge cuts by June 1, 2026, as a result of state-level "efficiency" programs, inspired by DOGE. Specifically: HR, IT, and finance will be hit the hardest.

Apple officially supports application control in macOS. But Intune can't use those APIs. Why? Why do you need Jamf for this stuff?

Protip: if you have to question whether something you're contemplating doing is legal or not, there is at least a non-zero chance that it's not a good idea.

If you create a web clip on an iPad using Intune and then tell Intune to uninstall the web clip, it should uninstall, right? Or is this another dumb "Intune limitation?"

The hardest problem in computer science is properly enrolling an iPad into Intune.

This probably goes without saying, but don't let AI tell you what to buy. We had a project where we used ChatGPT to recommend items to purchase for a video/studio setup. We went back and forth with it for literal weeks. And 70% of its recommendations were flat-out terrible or wrong.

Where is there often lag when opening the the right-click menu in Windows 11? Man, this OS sucks.

U.S. unemployment numbers will be dragged in Feb. 2025 by approximately 55,000 newly unemployed, due to federal employee and federal contractor layoffs. There is still a possibility for a net increase in jobs for Feb. 2025, but it's expected to be substantially smaller than the previous estimate.

So Musk is literally leveraging his work in DOGE to force organizations to advertise on Twitter. The U.S. is getting close to Russian levels of corruption.

In AWS, why isn't there a security group that allows you to allow inbound traffic from CloudFront? This should be easy. Instead, you have to create a stupid ass Lambda function.

Only Fox News would say that fighting between the U.S. and Canada is a positive.
