Tech chatting

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Kevin has the latest episode of his In The Trenches podcast up on his site. I quite enjoyed being part of the Tech Chat with Kevin, Kevin Mazur and Eric Maynard, chatting about the difficulties of dealing with dissimilar systems on your network. Eric put his show prep notes on his site, and I have some further thoughts on the frustrations of proving the cost-effectiveness of standardization when the only cost management sees is your time, which they’re already paying for, but those thoughts haven’t quite finished percolating in the coffee maker that is my brain. Hopefuly they will and I’ll post some more about it tomorrow. In the mean time, what do you have to say about it?

    What numbers like this say to me is that far too many organizations have bought in to the value of “big data” with no thought as to how storing, protecting, and reviewing that data is going to get done. “Conducted by Rabin Research Company among senior in-house counsel at leading U.S. corporations, BDO’s 2019 Inside…

    Re-reading that last entry brings to mind one of the big advantages to working in a smaller office. I can document and know everything that goes on my network. You give me an IP address and within a minute I can tell you who’s PC that is, what’s installed on it and what peripherals they…
