    Adobe became open rapist in 2021
    • For the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, which ended for Adobe on June 4, the company generated revenue of $ 3.84 billion, which corresponds to an increase of 23% over the same period last year. Adjusted earnings of $ 3.03 per share. The company's results were better than analysts' expectations, who had forecast $ 3.73 billion in quarterly profit on earnings per share of $ 2.82.

      Sales in the Digital Media segment, which includes creative divisions and cloud-based document editing services, jumped 25% to $ 2.79 billion. Sales in the Digital Experience segment, which includes marketing software, grew 21% to $ 938 million Amid the announcement of financial results, the company's shares rose by almost 2.5% and traded at $ 551.36 per share.

      In the third quarter of this year, Adobe expects to receive revenue of $ 3.88 billion, which is slightly higher than analysts' forecasts, which on average expect $ 3.83 billion in revenue. The company also expects to receive adjusted earnings of $ 3 per share, while analysts forecast earnings of $ 2.90 per share.

      At the same time biggest questions discussed inside US office is... diversity and prevention of white supremacism. One of developers told me in May that at least on two meetings such questions took more than 60% of total time, 20% of remaining time had been spend on discussing fuckups of new "diversified" developers.

      And still any people who try to make any optimization or fix old bugs get very dark future ahead of them - all their marks suddenly become lower and their income and bonuses also plummet.

    Mordor: Government started new round of VPN blocking
    • Roskomnadzor began to restrict access to violating VPN services, which are used to bypass blocking of any good content and protect their privacy on the Internet. This was reported on Thursday with reference to the release of the service.

      On Thursday, Roskomnadzor began blocking VyprVPN and Opera VPN "in accordance with the regulations for responding to threats to circumvent restrictions on access to child pornography, suicidal, pro-drug and other prohibited content."

      The service explained to the publication that these services are classified as threats in accordance with a government decree.

      "The restrictions will not affect Russian companies using VPN services in continuous technological processes," added Roskomnadzor, adding that more than 200 such processes in 130 Russian companies are included in the "white lists". Enterprises were informed about the possibility of inclusion in the lists on May 14, 2021, the lists can be supplemented after relevant requests

      Note how it is always "child pornography, suicidal, pro-drug content"? As if had been possible they will do anything to promote and make all of this things very common (as they love all of them!), but they are so nice tiny size things that allow to dumb down masses.

    Bad management: Canon now have smile detection cameras in their Chinese office
    • image

      Tech company Canon has come up with a downright dystopic way to tackle the problem of workplace morale: it’s installed cameras with AI-enabled “smile recognition” technology in the offices of its Chinese subsidiary Canon Information Technology. The cameras only let smiling workers enter rooms or book meetings, ensuring that every employee is definitely, 100 percent happy all the time.
