Hardcore Star Trek fans know that their futuristic computing devices use the LCARS interface. Could the L stand for #Linux? You see, Linux is being used ever more in space tech. by @sjvn.bsky.social

HR: Where do you see yourself in five years?
Me:

ServiceNow resolves 90% of its own IT requests autonomously. Now it wants to do the same for any enterprise ServiceNow's new Autonomous Workforce framework inherits enterprise permissions from deployment — so AI specialists can't exceed scope or self-escalate. CVS Health's CISO explains why governance architecture, not capability, is the real unlock for enterprise agentic AI.

FCC Chair Brendan Carr praises Bari Weiss’ CBS “I think they’re doing a great job,” Carr said at Semafor’s Restoring Trust in Media event Wednesday.

IBM's $40B stock wipeout is built on a misconception: Translating COBOL isn't the same as modernizing it Investors wiped $40 billion from IBM's market cap after Anthropic released COBOL translation tools. Analysts say the market got the news right and the conclusion wrong.
