Hm.

So my cell provider has no good plan for roaming to Europe. So the last time I was in France, I got a local phone number and a SIM card so I could use Internet while I was there. It was a bit of a pain to get the SIM so I put it somewhere I'd be able to find it* when I next needed it.

Now I can't find it.

Can anyone think of a way to get a French cell phone SIM either without leaving Toronto, or without leaving Charles De Gaulle?

  • Probably in that one purse I threw away a few years ago.

@mcc If your phone supports it, e-sims are a good way to get data for short term travel these days.

hold the board accountable for hiring the right security people, then.

and the punishment/fines should be .eu style, a percentage of gross profits, not .us style, the corporate equivalent of a cup of coffee

@Viss Yep, but also accountable for not empowering them. I often think about Meta's CISO who can only report to the board via in-house council - ensuring deniability/non-discoverability of any advice/warnings given to the board.

@Viss It is such a red flag for candidates, it says -> BE THE FALL GUY <-

I spent the day at a fun tech conference. However I seem to be the only person there who doubts the future of AI - and specifically of large language models. Sigh, I'm off to my pillar/cave in the desert.
