Why wouldn’t you want someone who’s trying to help you to be able to find you and contact you easily?ĭOUG. #SOPHOS POWER AND DISK LED BLINK SOFTWARE#They put in some stuff about how, as a software vendor, as a software creator, as a company that’s providing software solutions to other people, it’s actually not that hard to make yourself easy to contact, so people can let you know when there’s something you have overlooked.įor example, “There’s still a Log4J version in your code that you didn’t notice with the best will in the world, and you haven’t fixed.” Publish or perish!”Īctually, although parts of it are indeed heavy going, I think you should take a read through this. Some public servants have been told, “Come on, where’s your report? You’re the review board. I don’t know whether it was formed specifically because of Log4Shell, or just because of supply chain source code issues becoming a big deal.Īnd nearly eight months after Log4Shell was a thing, they produced this report, of 42 pages… the executive summary alone runs to nearly 3 pages.Īnd when I first glanced at this, I thought, “Oh, here we go.” ![]() This is a body called the Cybersecurity Review Board, the CSRB (part of the Department of Homeland Security), which was formed earlier this year. Let’s be fair… they said, “Perhaps a decade or longer.” Even though if there’s a fix for it, the US has come out and said that it could be decades before this thing is actually fixed.Ĩ months on, US says Log4Shell will be around for “a decade or longer”ĭUCK. …and a long time from now, we may still be talking about Log4Shell…ĭOUG. So, Noyce never did get a Nobel Prize, and Jack St. I actually attended a speech by Jack Kilburn, when I was a freshly minted computer scientist.Ībsolutely fascinating – research in the 1950s in America!Īnd of course, Kilby famously received a Nobel Prize, I think in the year 2000.īut Robert Noyce, I’m sure, would have been a joint winner, but he had already died by that time, and you cannot get a Nobel Prize posthumously. #SOPHOS POWER AND DISK LED BLINK HOW TO#Jack Kilby, of Texas Instruments, I think came up with the first integrated circuit, but it still required parts in the circuit to be wired together.Īnd Noyce solved the problem of how to bake them all in in silicon. I guess, to be fair, maybe you would say, “Co-pioneer”?ĭUCK. Intel’s first microprocessor would be the 4004, which was used for calculators.Īnd, a Fun Fact, the name Intel is a mashup of INTegrated ELectronics. ![]() Noyce is credited as pioneer of the integrated circuit, or microchip. This week, in 1968, the Intel Corporation was formed by Gordon Moore (he of Moore’s Law), and Robert Noyce. #SOPHOS POWER AND DISK LED BLINK FULL#OK, there you go… you and I are in the full swings of summer, and we have some tips for the summertime coming up later in the show.īut first, I’d like to talk about This Week in Tech History. So I had to ride all the way back… and I did just make it in time.ĭOUG. It was such a good idea when I set out: “I know, I’ll do a nice long ride, and then I’ll just get the train home, so I’m at home in plenty of time for the podcast.”Īnd when I got there, because of the extreme heat, the trains were only running once every two hours, and I’d just missed one. I think I picked the wrong day to go on a nice big country bicycle ride. Starting to cool down a bit here in England.ĭUCK. ![]() I am Doug Aamoth, and with me, as always, is Paul Ducklin.
