    The Commission added that the inclusion of casinos on the EU-wide AML/CFT framework has had a “mitigating effect” on 카지노 사이트 the danger of money laundering at these venues. This included “promoting a decrease threshold of winnings subject to customer due diligence” than the current €2,000 winnings threshold.

There's a bug in the keyboard driver...(dear liza)

-

  Some bugs are harder to find then others.  To successfully find and repair a bug in the code requires it to be re-producible, the easier to reproduce the faster it can be troubleshooted and fixed. Some bugs however are really hard to find, yet alone re-produce.  Take for example the mysterious keyboard driver 'bug'.  You may have noticed it yourself. Suddenly pushing keys doesn't seem to do anything or strangely typing a key opens your menu instead of typing that 'F'..has your machine got a virus? ..become possessed by daemons? or every feel you are sure you pressed CTRL-C only to not be able to now PASTE it into your document? There is a BUG in the Windows keyboard driver, it has been there at least since Windows 95..perhaps even longer. No it is not 'sticky keys', but it has a sort of similar effect. The keyboard maintains a 'state' flag for certain keys, like 'caps lock' or 'num lock' or 'scroll lock', when you press a ke

About the Book - Geek Wisdom

-
Image
It was a typical day in January, 2018. I recently started a project creating learning videos on topics like "Internet Programming 101"  and "Component Based Architecture 101"  and shortly after re watching them, it dawned on me just how 'Geeky' this wisdom was...and then I thought, hmm.. "Geek Wisdom". I wonder if I should start a 'Geek Wisdom' blog to share my videos on? So I googled and fund that the GeekWisdom.org site was in fact available, so  I ran out and purchased it and some space through 1&1  Internet...then I googled 'Geek Wisdom' and found this book (which I subsequently purchased the e-book shortly thereafter. So I thought, hey ! Why not write a few posts or do a few videos about some of the cool quotes that are in this book, sort of a 'geek bible'. But then I found that The 20-Something Chemist  had already done such an amazing job describing the book.. Well let him tell you in his own words:

What is Multi Factor Authentication (MFA / 2FA)?? and Why does it matter??

-

 TLDR; Don't have time to read this? - Here is a good video that gives an overview of what MFA is Why is it important ? - Watch this video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGRii5f_uSc Multifactor Authentication (MFA) or Two Factor Authentication (2FA)  You may have already seen this recently with your banking, or in your company, more and more online applications are requiring an additional verification option when you try to login. For example, if you try to log into your gmail from a remote computer, you may have seen a pop up on your phone asking you to confirm the login   Usernames and passwords are inherently 'broken' to 'prove' who you are - Why?  Well if you forget your password, or you give your password to someone else, or someone else steals your password, the app, machine, phone, cannot tell the difference between the 'real' you and the 'fake' you that has your password. To further complicate matters, as computer grow increasing faster, it

Chess, Leadership and the Imagination

Image
On Saturday Dec 3rd, 2022, I was asked to be a keynote speaker at a local chess tournament for ages 14 and under , and I was very honored and excited for this opportunity. They then further honored me with this trophy at the end and I am again humbled. Below is a written version of my speech " Chess, Leadership and the Imagination" The first thing I want to do today, is test if everyone's hands and arms are working. If you like to play chess, can I please see you raise you hand up high, and please keep it in the air [Pause] Okay, second question, if you think chess is an EASY game to play, please keep your hand up high, if you think CHESS is HARD please put your hand down Okay.. [Pause] Last question - Think back to the very first time you played chess, maybe it was last week, last month, or 3 years ago, try to remember that first game, maybe it's that first person showing you the rules, the way the difference pieces moved, the first 'real' game you played?  -

The Programmer's Dilemma

-
Client: This program isn't working the way I need it - I need a program that will do 'X' for me   Programmer: Okay, that's a tall order it will take some time to do. Client : Oh, I didn't realize, how long do you think it will take?   Programmer: Umm, depends, but I'm guessing about 3 weeks. Client:   No that simply won't work -   my reports are due next week, I need it by Monday. I'll just put another 3 programmers on it with you, that will make things 3  times faster, so you should have no problem getting it done by Monday! Programmer: Scratches his head - muttering  "umm,  that's not going to work" - Sound Familiar? Their seems to be a mistaken belief (held by a fair number of people), that any project or process can be made faster simply by adding more resources to it. This is the law of outrageous oversimplification. Brooke's Law coined by Fred Brooks in 1975- Specifically - "adding manpower  to a late software project makes

Despite of how it looks - I'm not part of a coup d'etat

-
Image
  Blake Miner recently wrote an interesting blog entry called " The Infinite Version of You" . It is an interesting though experiment based on a concept known as "Theory of Mind" . In a nutshell, the people that others interact with in their minds have a version of "YOU", not the real you but the "YOU" they believe they "know".  Similarly, the people you interact with are not really them but simply a 'copy' of them you have made in your own mind, based on your experiences. This has some personal relevance to me, specifically as a young child, when I was between the ages of 9-11 my dad was diagnosed with a type of Schizophrenia. My dad believed that 'GOD' was taking to him and had given him special abilities, for example, the ability to move objects with his mind. What I came to realize though this experience (and through others following) was that the 'Dad' I knew was only a part of the picture. A bunch of pieces

 The Magic of the Blockchain - Demystified Playing around with Cryptocurrency - again - .

IT Security Myths & Legends

-
Image
  Misinformation, 'fake news', rumors, and propaganda - surround us.  Even worse, we freely share this information with others, often without even knowing the harm it causes. No one is oblivious to this, no one is immune. The only cure is to educate ourselves, to apply logic and reasoning, and think before we share. Today I am going to countdown some of the top statements you may have heard around IT Security, and provide some facts for you to digest. Ultimately it is up to you decide what you want to do with this information. 5 ) IT Security is the 'IT Departments' responsibility You may have heard this, or something like it, particularly when something goes horribly wrong, "Hey Brad, I thought you were taking care of that security thing?". Let's imagine for a minute that you head into the emergency room with a pain in your side.  After an examination the Doctor tells you that your appendix is about to rupture at any moment, and if you don't get emerg

If each day of the week were a person, who would it be.... #WritingChallenge

-
Image
 A popular writing challenge / prompt for new writers goes something like "Describe Each Day of the Week - as if it were a Person". I am taking a slightly different approach in this challenge.   Monday - For most people I think the beginning of the work week, leaves us feeling sad that the weekend is over and we have to go back to work. So I think the "person" who would match this most would be the women in the song ' Manic Monday' .  I too have these Mondays, but for the most part, I am excited to start my Monday and for me, it is closer to the character of Biblo starting out, leaving the Shire to set out on what adventure   Tuesday- After getting Monday 'over daywith'. Tuesday is the "real" start of the week, time to get down to business, and who puts up with no bull, rolls up their sleeves and gets down to business. Well for me it can be no other then Hans Solo. A somewhat reluctant hero, careful on what he gets himself into starting but

Welcome to the Fediverse (goodbye twitter, facebook - hello mastodon & friendica)

    At the time of writing this entry actress Marina Sirtis (probably best known for her roll as Deanna Troi on Star Trek TNG) has left Twitter. One of the things that made Twitter an amazing tool, were people like Marina - Famous people who would actually reach out and talk directly to fans, unlike some others, who just seem to use it for blatant marketing  purposes - but that is a different rant altogether. She is one of many actors in the Science Fiction genre who was very active on twitter Regardless of your feelings about Elon Musk, or Twitter, or Facebook, or any of the large social media companies.  This entry is to remind everyone, you do not have to be 'stuck' on one particular platform, when their is an entire Fediverse to choose from! What is the Fediverse? Star Trek fans such as myself are already familiar with the concept of the Federation. The United Federation of Planets  is a fictional organization of numerous planetary sovereignties. Each planet has its own c
