A slice of Kimchi leads our day with some information about vulnerabilities in Quanta LTE routers. Yes, it is another day and another security problem. At Rewriting the Code, we get a great post about being a “dumb girl” in computer science. It is more about a story of asking questions and not being afraid to look dumb, but the writer is taking her chance at helping the women in STEM movement. On DZone Agile, there is an interesting post about the first exception changing the rules. Anyone who has seen this knows that making any exception is just a slippery slope to many exceptions.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
