On My Mind 

Today is the opening day of Microsoft’s MS Ignite 2018 event. And upon opening, Microsoft announced quite a few new Azure products. A list is here, and I will be sharing my thoughts on them here and in The Interlocutor once I have had some more time to go through them..

Google, is one incredibly deceitful company. How hard could it be to ask for permission? -> Google secretly logs users into Chrome whenever they log into a Google site

Google is NEVER getting into my Circle Of Trust! -> Why experts are freaking out over the new way Google Chrome sign-in works https://mashable.com/article/google-chrome-69-forced-login/

Microsoft & All Things Windows

Very good read! -> How Microsoft Uses a Growth Mindset to Develop Leaders

Business

More entrants, more ‘giggers’, increased profit-taking – out of the hides of gig workers – by the firms, and what have you? Tell me the workers didn’t see this coming…-> Uber drivers and other gig economy workers are earning half what they did five years ago

Technology

Madness! -> The night a Chinese billionaire was accused of rape in Minnesota

Of course, it is aliens! Silurian, I believe.  -> Is it aliens? Scientists detect more mysterious radio signals from distant galaxy
