Tetris is a good example of technical debt. On a related note, what would a lack of documentation be called? Documentation debt?

Great mission this month! I'm glad I participated.

Three of the top five security threats has to do with passwords in one way or another. Vendors could take steps to make secure devices as well, such as not having a default password and making admins choose a lengthy password the first time the device is used. Hackers will always take advantages of vulnerabilities and…

First time participant... why am I scared of this whole idea? (Well at least uncomfortable )

Or have it go to a "No longer monitored" state and then have a view where you can see the nodes that have been placed into that state. Otherwise have the same result as if it has been deleted.

Who else had to google what bifurcation means?

Did you hear back directly for this? The two shortcuts for last month were the first ones I did and I haven't seen it the points. I never received gift cards for participating in Spread the Word and being filmed at a SWUG either.

I wonder how many people now have the password of "correcthorsebatterystaple?"

March 13th... Mixing poetry with technology is long over due It is like running your network with stew. If that does not make sense to you Then it it might be time to think anew. Yeah its garbage, but that is what you asked me to do. 

If you needed to hear from a motivation speaker to face reality, gain a better perspective, and gain some hope then read this article. (Which if you are reading this comment then you probably already have! )

Who comes up with the renaming an existing concept anyway? Someone should have a talk with them.

I just took the survey. Many times the question will say "Select all that apply" but you are only given the option to select one before it automatically moves you on.

This is something I've been looking for. I'm so glad you are doing this!

Thanks for the article. Somehow I missed some of the articles in this series so it was nice to see the links to them at the top so I can go back and read them.

IoT security is a real issue, just like having back ups, and using/requiring strong passwords.

First Red X of the month for me. I definitely don't have experience with Chassis & Blades, let alone the SolarWinds dashboard representing them.

I made an educated guess on today's question instead of following the hint. I'm not feeling so educated right now.

"Disappointingly, 33.7% of the mobile apps sent outgoing traffic with no encryption." And who will be held responsible for this when it is exploited, (or the details come out that it has been exploited.)

"Companies can’t always afford to build in the security features software needs to be secure..." As the rest of your article implies, it is choice to not build in the security features unless the IT leaders convince those that hold the purse strings it is necessary or demand security be implemented. Nowadays, if a company…

Can we vote twice on this one?

I love articles that are educational and make me think!

I'm glad to hear of the continued investment in database performance monitoring.

I found this post while trying to figure out why I have alerts open for over a year with a title of "Multicast routing group status is not normal." This article helped. I'm looking for more information on how to resolve this alert. The search goes on.

I'm happy that the Actuator survived the transition!

512K was riot, 768K is going to kill it, I can't wait for 1024k Day! Some internet outages predicted for the coming month as '768k Day' approaches

Anyone have good checklists they use for IT? (I guess that is called automation, however sometimes human intervention is needed.)

Reading that in twitter format was extremely difficult for me to read.

Or have an option to do it before hitting submit on the search.

Another example that better morals and ethics need to be taught from the Delta Story: "Countless air rage incidents have been triggered by people reclining their seats, with some planes diverted and others making emergency landings after fights broke out. In 2015, a man aboard a Southwest Airlines flight allegedly tried to…

Great and very concise questions so far! I like it!
