Mit Rheinland-Pfalz verabschiedet sich ein erstes Bundesland von einer wichtigen Microsoft-Software. Aus Gründen des Datenschutzes ist es Schulen jetzt untersagt worden, weiter auf Microsoft Teams zu setzen. Wirklich erlaubt war der Einsatz nie, sondern lediglich geduldet – aus einem einfachen Grund.

Hayden Barnes served 4 years in the Utah National Guard and 7 years as an Army Infantryman. After participating in the Microsoft Software and Systems Academy (MSSA) in 2021, he landed a great job with an impressive salary at a tech firm in software development management. Hayden was told by senior military leaders that he'd never make it as a civilian and should stay in the military. He is very passionate about being a voice of what is possible for junior enlisted servicemembers, especially in the face of the many programs out there that are specifically targeted to senior enlisted, retirees or officers. Throughout both his military career and private sector career in tech, he had to make several unplanned pivots and career changes due to many different factors. Part of why he struggled was due, in part, to “imposter syndrome.” Hayden experienced these doubts about whether he was up to par with his peers, many of whom he thought had a better background, more training or intelligence in his comparison with them. He learned that he had to stop looking at others and comparing himself and simply focus on his own journey and situation. Fear is often a tool that is used my more senior military leaders and veterans. Instead of arguing or getting upset at those “scare tactics,” focus on achieving success for yourself. Instead of proving them wrong, simply focus on proving yourself right. Consider the fact that those who are often using this fear-based tactic on you are often coming from a place of their own fear, a lack of knowledge or perhaps they are trying to gain or sell something. Before reacting to these fear tactics, stop to consider their motivation.Hayden discusses some of the transferable skills that he gained in the Army as an infantryman that helped him achieve success in the tech career field. He leveraged his transferable skills, that were not really tech related, as well as what he learned in the Microsoft Software and Systems Academy (MSSA) program. We discuss some of Hayden's biggest challenges in adapting to the private sector such as dealing with a more casual and less structured environment. It has been more of an adaptation than a struggle. Be open to the process of adapting to new cultures and new environments, much like you've done throughout your career. After starting as a small project manager, Hayden has progressed through the company into higher level, more strategic roles. He sees his military skills as his foundation, his education and training are the reinforcements of that foundation and he built his career from that. You have to believe in those skills as your foundation and it will help you achieve success after the military. Hayden goes over what skills he highlighted on his resume. It was not focused on his infantry experience, instead he highlighted his achievements translated into his target industry key words and pain points. Do your research and change the story from military language to corporate terms that your new employers can understand. Please head to the Lessons Learned for Vets brand new YouTube channel at https://tinyurl.com/llforvets22 to hear Hayden answer a BONUS QUESTION about his key to success after his military service.  You can connect with Hayden Barnes on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/hayden-barnes/SUBSCRIBE & LEAVE A FIVE-STAR REVIEW and share this to other veterans who might need help as they transition from the military!Connect with me on Facebook and LinkedIn!

Cyberattacke auf Paul-Ehrlich-Institut / Testergebnisse schlecht gesichhert / Corona- und Makro-Viren / Datenschützer warnt vor Microsoft-Software

Cyberkriminelle haben Lücken in einer häufig verwendeten Microsoft-Software entdeckt. Wie hoch der Schaden ist, kann noch nicht abgeschätzt werden. Aber rund um den Globus sind Unternehmen betroffen - auch in Deutschland. Was steckt dahinter? Wer steckt dahinter? Wer oder was ist "Hafnium"? Und wie können wir uns alle besser schützen? Darüber diskutieren wir in dieser Episode.

Since COVID19 has driven everyone to work from home (WFH), the importance of cloud computing has become more relevant. Right now about 8M people are working from home part of the time. To help with this transition, your company might enjoy the benefits of edge computing. I'm sure you have heard of cloud computing. Many software products that we use are now cloud-based. Think of Microsoft 365. It used to be you had to download software to your computer and that was how you accessed it. Updates were slow and then had to be sent via DVDs or however you bought the software, to begin with. Now that Microsoft Software as a Service is in the cloud, updates can be immediate. You can access the software from anywhere. Cloud storage works well in most cases, but there are performance improvements to be gained by using edge computing. Edge computing processes data closer to the source which means not all your data has to be processed in the cloud. Let's look at three benefits of edge computing. 1. Reduced Bandwidth StrainMichael Dell says that edge computing will be the next big thing. Reducing operational and bandwidth strain is why. Smart sensors and other connected devices within your facilities will generate terabytes of data per minute. Imagine if you send all of that data to the cloud to be analyzed. There will be enormous demands on bandwidth. Couple that with the activities of running the business and management systems, and it could get expensive to manage that data. Freeing up your cloud servers to perform business applications will benefit your WFM employees. 2. A Reduction in LatencyIn a cloud-based solution, data is sent to the large data servers, processed, and then sent back to the edge near the user. This transmission causes latency or delays in getting the information for remote workers. This might not seem like a big deal, but imagine if you are pulling and picking orders in a fulfillment warehouse facing increased demand because everyone is ordering product on-line. You are using AR glasses to show you what to pick. If the data has to transmit from the cloud to your glasses that latency could slow down your picking efficiency. It would be better to receive that information from a closer source, an edge computing resource. 3. Increased SecurityAs an increased number of employees are working from home, that means more data is being accessed from non-secure locations. Increased access points give cybercriminals multiple points of entry into a business system. Using edge computing, the information can be analyzed locally with less information being sent to the main data servers. This means there is less transmission of sensitive and secure information between devices and the cloud. If there is less transmission of sensitive data, there is better security for your business! Cloud computing and edge computing is not an either/or scenario. I believe most companies will use a combination of both where it makes sense to do so. As Michael Dell says, edge computing will be the next big thing! I hope that you investigate the benefits of edge computing for your business. As always, it's an honor to serve you and I hope this helps you and your organization get a little bit better today. http://getpodcast.reviews/id/1499224100 (Rate and Review Here) More show notes are https://americanlean.com/blog/three-benefits-of-edge-computing/ (here) https://americanlean.com/contact/ (Schedule a free 1/2 call) with Tom Reed.https://www.amazon.com/dp/1645162818 (Buy) the Lean Game Plan Follow me on https://twitter.com/dailyleancoach (Twitter@dailyleancoach)Join me on https://my.captivate.fm/www.linkedin.com/in/tomreedamericanlean (Linked In)

My conversation with former Microsoft Software and Systems Academy (MSSA) Site Manager now Operations Project Manager for MSSA, Candina “Dina” Janicki features a discussion of the dynamics of transition for military spouses, particularly when it comes to career, and how establishing a framework and identifying things you can, should, will and won't do for your career can be game changing as you go from duty station to duty station. We explore why career continuity isn't always what we think it should look like but is achievable depending on how you look here. Dina and I dive into a few key approaches that I hope will help those of you who might be in a place of transition right now think about how to frame things as you move forward.

This show comes to you a little later than usual because, to J.J.'s chagrin, we wanted to cover the Microsoft Surface event. Was it worth the wait or was joe wrong in thinking there was news to talk about? Well, Joe was wrong about something as you will see in "Sound Off". but the BBQ Crew was right about the future of pet transport as can be seen in the "Last Word". Catch a train while you wonder if we can get an episode recorded before J.J.'s groceries can arrive in episode 194. In The News: Mattel's Uno Braille Hits Target Shelves, But Does It Miss The Point?

And then the talk of the Microsoft Duo came up. Here's a bunch of links that fueled the fires of conversation. Windows 10 1909 Coming Soon, Here Are the New Features Microsoft's 2019 Surface Event In 10 Minutes Everything Microsoft announced yesterday and when you can get it Microsoft Announces New Surface Pro X, Laptop 3, and Surface Pro 7 The Surface Laptop 3 and Surface Pro 7 Revamps Are One Port Short of Ideal Microsoft Will Still Make It Hard for You to Repair Its New Repairable Surface Laptop Surface Laptop 3, Surface Pro X SSDs aren't 'user removable' How does the new Surface Pro 7 compare to the Surface Go?

The Surface Neo, not Duo, is the path back to Windows Phone MICROSOFT S DUAL-SCREEN PHONE WILL LIVE OR DIE BY THE APPS Tip: Close Safari tabs on your iPhone to save memory and battery Yep, iOS 13 is buggier than a Las Vegas hotel room mattress. Yet the consistently being patched mobile operating system does have some new features worth noting. Anyone who has performed a fun festival of troubleshooting for their family and friends during the holidays might be familiar with Safari keeping tons of tabs open. Old open tabs can drain battery, use data and drag on memory the longer they stay around. Apple knows this and that is why you can set iOS to automatically close them after a period of time. Go to Settings, then down to Safari. From there look for a Close Tabs option. In this control you will find that you can set Safari to close tabs after a day, a week or a month. Don t worry, this is set to the manual option by default. However, for some relatives, you might just want to move it to a month rather than see their browsing history when trying to fix their iOS devices. Sound Off: First, Dave Van Der Molen asks a question in his email "Indoor Navigation and GPS Apps" "Hi Joe and J.J. Absolutely love your BBQ podcasts! They're informative, timely, and I love the banter!! I have two topics on which I'd love to hear a discussion: One is that I wish there was an iOS or Android app out there that had similar capabilities to the Trekker Breeze or the Victor Reader Trek (i.e., you would be able to record a route as a sighted person is guiding you and also vocally record points of interest as you're recording that route). Then you should be able to play the route back and walk it independently with your guide dog or cane. I've found an app called MyWay Classic that's supposed to be able to do those things, but the manual is badly written and the app is poorly organized. Having said all of the above, however, I'm wondering why blind and visually impaired people can't access the same navigation/location apps as land surveyors who get get location accuracy to within inches. My second issue I'd love to hear discussion on is whether it's reasonably easy and affordable for individuals to set up indoor navigation systems in small buildings that they frequent, and I'm thinking that the person setting it up would be the only one using it. For example, I'd love to be able to put up stickers or something, so that I could more easily be able to navigate my church or the office building in which I work. To do the navigating, I'd want to be able to use my phone. Thanks so much for the podcast and all the work you do in testing various apps and devices that may or may not be blind-friendly! Dave Sadly, to the second question, we don't have any recommendations due to the way that indoor beacons work at the time of this recording. Shan Noyes writes in with the subject line: "Adaptive technology history & podcast 173 corrections!!!" "Hi Blind Bargains team! First of all I would like to say that I listen to your podcast all the time. Although I do get behind sometimes or skip some podcasts and listen to them later and have to do a binge listening to catch up. I really enjoy the interviews that the podcast covers there is lot of good information. However, during my latest binge listen to catch up on missed podcast I heard some incorrect information that was given. The podcast in question from podcast 173 Alien probing cane, . It appears in the podcast in the section where JJ is talking about the single braille cell device that is kind of mouse size its called braibook. This section takes place just after the 48 minute point of the podcast. Joe makes the comment The first braille displays were one cell. Of course that was back in the 80s. and I was using an optacon There are two problems with this statement. First of all The Optacon did not display what the camera picked up in braille. Yes the display that the optacon user had their finger on was a tactile representation of what the camera was picking up, but it was not braille. It was raised print. A cool device and was a challenge to learn how to use. Actually I received an Optacon in the mid 70s and took 2 weeks of 40 hours of training per week to learn how to use it. It was useful because this was in the days before scanners and optical recognition systems existed for the general public. And Yes I was enough of a crazy kid to actually read a couple of novels with it. Got pretty fast with it as well. However, the Optacon joined the world of that famous bird the dodo in 1996 because scanners and reading machines came along and the Optacon just wasn t fast enough for reading. The second problem in this statement was concerns the first braille displays were single cells. Actually again the company who brought the Optacon to market also brought us a refreshable braille device in the late 70s called the Versabraille, and it had a 20 cell display. When the Versabraille first came out it was a stand a lone unit that one could print from. The next generation of the unit had the ability to act as a terminal and so could be interfaced with Apple 2 e computers and mainframes. I had one of these as well in the early 80s and did a lot of main frame work with it. Anyways, just wanted to set the record straight because people who are not familiar wit the history of adaptive equipment would be mislead by Joe s statement. For an interesting read do a google on the optacon and versabraille. The write up on the Optacon and its early days and how it was developed is very interesting. Yes, the history of adaptive technology is a very very interesting one. I was not only fortunate enough to be using some of the early days stuff, but also was heavily involved as an adaptive technology adviser for the CNIB from 1986 through 1992. To day there are some pretty good systems like NVDA or Jaws, but in the early 80s we had a lot more variation of choice available to us. My first personal speech program for the IBM xt personal computer was Freedom1. A speech program that was very very customizable. Another cool speech program that the developer of Freedom1 wrote was called ISOS . Sure there were speech programs like Vertplus and SoftVert, but ISOS was the first speech program that I had seen that one could set up monitoring windows and when something changed in that windows have the computer trigger something else to happen. IBM also was in the game starting out with a speech program called PCSAID. Which evolved into Screen Reader. An extremely powerful speech package. I still lament the death of IBM Warp and the IBM Screen Reader program. Again one could have it monitor areas of the screen and based upon what it saw perform different computer tasks. Oh well, I m getting off topic. Just wanted to clarify the 2 items in the podcast 173. Guess my only point really is before making such historical statements research them. Because as podcasters Your word gets taken a the undisputed truth. For a description of the Optacon check out" this link "another interesting link is" this one Have a good day.

...und jetzt ein kleiner Brüller: wenn Microsoft vor unsicherer Software warnt und den Eigentümer "nicht kennt"! Ich werf' mich weg. Und das dank Microsoft! Hat das Unternehmen doch nicht eine Liste veröffentlicht, mit der die Mitarbeiter informiert werden, welche Software sie künftig nicht mehr einsetzen "sollten". Da die gelisteten Namen den Schutz der Unternehmensdaten nicht gewährleisten können. Klar, dass sich hier in erster Linie direkte Konkurrenten zu Microsoft finden - das würden wir alle so machen. Aber eine Produktnennung lässt einen stutzen - dann nach dem Eigentümer googlen - und dann lauthaus los lachen! Microsoft - Logo auf Bildschirm bei Microsoft München - Bild-Quelle: privat Industriespionage. Social Engineering. Hacking. Wanzen. Gezielte Abhöraktionen. Das alles ist meiner Meinung nach EXTREM überbewertet! Viele Manager teilen Insider-Infos ganz freiwillig! Und dank geschwelltem Hahnenkamm auch noch lautstark und weiträumig! Ich habe mal mit geschrieben und mit einem Betroffenen nach seinem Handytelefonat über die Internas gesprochen, die die komplette Abflughalle nun weiß. Nach anfänglichem, nennen wir es zivil, "sehr negativem Feedback" wurde es schnell ruhig und gesittet. Wahrscheinlich deshalb, da er den Namen seines Chefs und des Geschäftsführers genannt hatte und ein Name in Google sofort das Unternehmen auswarf. Genauso wie die genannten Geschäftspartner und deren Namen. Das ist nichts einmaliges. Es kommen auch immer mal wieder Tweets aus Bahn und Flughafenzubringer, in denen lautstarke "ich-bin-hier-der-Boss"-Telefonate wiedergegeben werden - mit Namen, Projekten und Euro-Summen. Sorry Leute, ganz legal! Warum also noch Industrie-Spionage. Einfach Leute mit einem neun-Euro-Ticket an die Airport-Counter, in Airportbusse oder in die Bahn setzen und mitschreiben lassen! Aber einfacher ist es natürlich, innerhalb des Firmenzauns hier für klare Regelungen zu sorgen. Dies hat sich auch Microsoft gedacht und den Mitarbeitern eine Liste von Produkten und Namen zur Verfügung gestellt, die in die Kategorie "verboten" oder "wir raten ab" geteilt war. Das liest sich wie das Who-is-Who der Konkurrenten: Google Drive natürlich, da Microsoft selbst OneDrive im Angebot hat. Google Docs, Sheets und Slides, wofür ist Microsoft der größte Hersteller von Office-Software. Und, nicht zu vergessen: amazon! Keine AWS-Nutzung, auch hier bietet Microsoft wahlweise Cortana oder eben OneDrive. Dass auch Slack auf dieser Liste steht ist klar, versucht Microsoft doch verzweifelt, sein Tool "Teams" in den Markt zu drücken - was bisher nur mit wenig Erfolg gekrönt ist. GeekWire zitiert hier in Auszügen aus dem internen Schreiben, dass an alle MS-ler verschickt wurde: Slack Free, Slack Standard and Slack Plus versions do not provide required controls to properly protect Microsoft Intellectual Property (IP). Existing users of these solutions should migrate chat history and files related to Microsoft business to Microsoft Teams, which offers the same features and integrated Office 365 apps, calling and meeting functionality. Learn more about the additional features that Teams can provide your workgroup. Slack Enterprise Grid version complies with Microsoft security requirements; however, we encourage use of Microsoft Teams rather than a competitive software. Wie gesagt, dass das Unternehmen versucht, sich und seine IP, sein geistiges Eigentum, vor Fremdzugriffen und langen Patentklagen zu schützen, spricht für sich. Dass aber, wie im letzten Satz, klar ausgedrückt wird, dass die Slack Enterprise Grid Version "kompatibel" zu den internen Anforderungen ist, man aber erwartet, dass das eigene Tool Fremdtools vorgezogen wird, spricht eine eindeutige Sprache, was die komplette Liste eigentlich bewirken soll. Allerdings ist Microsoft hier ein peinlicher Fehler passiert... man sollte die intere Kommunikation wohl nochmals überdenken: auf der Liste der Produkte, von denen freundlich abgeraten wird, ist auch GitHub gerutscht... was aus zwei Gründen wirklich lustig ist - und ich merke schon, ihr könnt Euch kaum noch halten: Die Plattform GitHub IST dafür gedacht, Projekte, Code und Repositories hochzuladen und gerne mal der ganzen teilnehmenden Community zur Diskussion, Weiterentwicklung oder Fehlersuche anzubieten. Auch die Versionskontrolle ist ein sehr beliebtes Feature. Das sind keine versteckte Infos, das findet man problemlos bei der Anmeldung oder auf der kompletten Seite (immer mal wieder) zu lesen! Es ist zu unterstellen, dass ein Programmierer mit der Absicht, hier anmelden und Sachen hochladen zu wollen, das versteht...Die Eigentümer-Frage. GitHub ist nur noch GitHub dem Namen nach, da... vor knapp einem Jahr für 7,5 Milliarden Dollar MICROSOFT GitHub übernommen hat. Soll es das jetzt schon gewesen sein, mit der open-source-Unterstützung von Microsoft? Nicht wirklich: MS möchte verhindern, dass die Cloud-Version für hoch geheime Informationen, Codes oder Spezifikationen genutzt wird. In Ordnung sind allerdings die vor Ort, also lokal, installierten und betriebenen Versionen.Ja... wer es nun nicht witzig fand oder schon fertig ist mit lachen und sich vielleicht gerade über Microsoft aufregen will, sollte bedenken: wenn nun alle Microjaner freundlich gezwungen werden, ihre eigenen Produkte wie Teams und allem voran auch Office zu nutzen - besteht für uns Endanwender ENDLICH die Chance, fehlerfreie und sinnvolle Software zu bekommen, mit zeitnahen Verbesserungen und Bug-Fixes. Schließlich müssen sie jetzt alle die hausinternen Produkte verwenden und können, wenn Abstürze die Weiterarbeit verhindern, nicht einfach wieder auf Google ausweichen! Vielleicht eine Maßnahme, die auch bei anderen Software-Firmen mal dringend ratsam wäre...! Und bei Euch so. Noch Tränen in den Augen oder noch nicht mal ein kühles Schulterzucken für Microsoft und seine "Empfehlungen" an die Mitarbeiter übrig? Spricht hier ein Apple-Nutzer oder jemand, der die Workarounds kennt, um absturzfrei mit Microsoft-Software zu arbeiten? Lasst es mich wissen - gerne per Kommentar unter meinem Blog oder email. Ich bin sehr gespannt, wie ihr solche Maßnahmen aufnehmen würdet! Meinen PodCast abonnieren: | direkt | iTunes | Spotify | Google |

Danny Chung is an positive example of a Veteran that found a way to give back to the transitioning active-duty community.  Danny’s team is trying to do is fill a gap in the civilian workforce. At any given time, there are over 500,000 open jobs in the computer industry. The current education system is producing only 49,000 computer science majors a year. Danny’s goal is to fill the gap with a portion of the 250,000 service-members that leave active duty every year. One solution is the Microsoft Software and Systems Academy (MSSA). It is an 18-week course that active duty can take on base towards the end of their service. They offer training in high demand fields like cloud development, cloud administration, cybersecurity, databases and business intelligence administration. In addition, graduates are guaranteed an interview with Microsoft or an industry partner. There are currently 15 military bases that offer the MSSA. Currently, Danny’s biggest drive is to help military spouses find gainful employment in the technology industry. The Military Spouse Technology Academy is an effort by Danny’s team to combat the military spouse 18% unemployment and 53% underemployment rates. In addition, we talk about his service, difficulties transitioning during the Great Recession, and his feelings on artificial intelligence taking over the planet.

I had a delightful interview with Stephanie Martin, who leads Microsoft's Partner Seller or "P-Seller" Program for the United States business. This episode should be of particular interest to those partners looking to better engage with Microsoft's US business in the field. The P-Seller program has gained significant momentum at Microsoft these last several years as Microsoft Sales leaders have focused greater emphasis on the importance of partners to help Microsoft customers along the digital transformation journey. "Partner Sellers" come in various forms and sizes from small SI's or System Integrators helping Microsoft customers deploy Microsoft Software as a Service (SAAS) Solutions such as Office 365 and Dynamics to Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) who have migrated their solutions to Microsoft's Azure Cloud and are delivering these cloud based offerings to specific vertical or point solution areas. In our discussion we dive in on the attributes of the program, recent changes, what makes a great "P-Seller" and how to engage with Stephanie and Microsoft's US Field Organization. Active Microsoft Partner Network (MPN) partners can access more details regarding the program here: https://partner.microsoft.com/en-us/membership/partner-seller/about-the-program In each of my podcasts I spend a portion of the time discussing "the professional journey" and Stephanie's story should be particularly interesting to those earlier in career professionals. Stephanie is a 32 year old who joined Microsoft as a full time employee or FTE only after a five or six year journey working for vendors of Microsoft in various capacities. Stephanie's career journey is a great example of how one might enter a technology leader like Microsoft as a vendor and in her personal example "do great work, be recognized and be hired". I also wanted to note that Stephanie was part of a program at Microsoft for employees recognized for their potential - called "Next Steps" - and its where I got to better know Stephanie, her capabilities, capacity to grow and what really drives her. In addition, we discuss Stephanie's passions including her current mission to establish a Denver chapter of the International Association of Microsoft Channel Partners (IAMCP) Women in Technology segment. As I promised, here is the link to IAMCP and Women in Technology in this organization. Stephanie's Favorite Quote - "Play Hard, Work Hard, Dream Big!" And one of Stephanie's favorite books, "Your a Badass", by Jen Sincero. Stephanie can be reached at stepma@microsoft.com. You can follow her on Twitter at: @MeetStepma and on Instagram at: stephaniem2 I hope you enjoy this episode.  You can rate and review this podcast by going to iTunes and searching "Ultimate Guide to Partnering" You can also follow me on Facebook and Twitter.  Thank you for listening.
