It Must Cost Money To Be Secure

It Must Cost Money To Be Secure
Ah, corporate security logic at its finest! Some poor soul clicks a sketchy email attachment, and suddenly management's brilliant security strategy is "if it's free, it's a threat." Imagine telling developers to uninstall Python, Vim, and 7zip because they didn't come with an invoice. Next they'll be requiring receipts for your keyboard shortcuts. The real security threat isn't free software—it's the executive who thinks obscure paid software with three users worldwide is inherently secure because it cost exactly one corporate credit card approval. Meanwhile, the hacker who sent that email is probably using those same "insecure" free tools to plan their next attack. The irony would be delicious if it weren't so painful.

What A Legend

What A Legend
Corporate tech in a nutshell. Some executive burns through millions on AI "innovations" that are basically expensive tech demos destined for the graveyard. Meanwhile, the kid who'll inherit this mess someday is already recognizing the corporate cycle of wasted resources. The real kicker? Those hundreds of proof-of-concepts probably could've been one solid product if someone had just said "no" to the next shiny AI buzzword. But that wouldn't look good on the quarterly innovation report, would it?

Security Is Everything (Except The Password)

Security Is Everything (Except The Password)
Spending millions on security infrastructure only to have your credentials set to "admin/admin" is like installing a bank vault door on a cardboard box. The CISO's horrified face says it all - watching that fancy security castle crumble because someone couldn't be bothered to use a password manager. It's the corporate equivalent of installing a state-of-the-art home security system but leaving your spare key under the doormat with a neon sign pointing to it.
