    Il team #Microsoft crea un sistema di archiviazione dati "rivoluzionario" che dura millenniI ricercatori utilizzano mini-esplosioni di plasma per codificare l'equivalente di due milioni di libri in un dispositivo delle dimensioni di un sottobicchiere. Il metodo potrebbe preservare i dati di ricerca per millenni con costi di archiviazione minimi.https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-00502-2 @informatica

    Dear Mastodon,I am a mechanical engineer who is about to make a major #career change. I have received a job offer from an international company for an Application Engineer position. The role involves supporting #CAD (computer-aided design), #PLM (product lifecycle management), and #PDM (product data management) systems and their underlying infrastructure.As far as I know, most of the applications are #Windows-based, but there are likely some #Unix-like systems involved as well. I do not have formal system administration experience, so I am looking for guidance on which technologies I should focus on to make this transition as smooth as possible. Could you recommend useful books, technologies, or keywords to explore?For context, I have homelab-level experience with Linux, networking, SSL, reverse proxying, ZFS, Solaris zones, bhyve, and FreeBSD, and I have been using OpenBSD as my desktop operating system for years.Thank you in advance for any #advice or recommendations.TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES:- Implementation, configuration, and maintenance of software and systems related to the supported area in line with corporate requirements.- Installation, configuration, and maintenance of critical software systems, as well as providing expert-level support to end users.- Management of application-related changes, handling major upgrades, and the introduction and testing of new systems and developments.- Publishing and testing new releases.- System administration and monitoring to ensure the performance and proper operation of supported software and systems.- Troubleshooting and problem resolution, including the management of system updates and fixes.- Analysis of business requirements and implementation of related processes.- Support for project management, including the preparation of documentation and reports.- Communication with clients and business units to maintain synergy between business requirements and system solutions.

    No matter how you slice it, as I see it, it boils down to: Microsoft's software did insufficient input validation on untrusted data (specifically in this case configuration changes for one customer, it seems), and this led to widespread outages affecting many, many, *many* customers in many different ways.Security done properly should not rely on "blocking erroneous" stuff, but should verify that everything is good and only *if* that succeeds allow any of it through.@spytfyre @rysiek
