1 Human Resources Is NotYour Friendby Greg Ferro The Human Resources department exists for two reasons To protectthe company from its employees (not to protect you from thecompany) and maintain employee productivity by handling personalproblems Any protection you get as a personemployeesalary slave is a randombyproduct of the departmentrsquos primary mission of protecting thecompany Do not expect the HR team to protect you defend you or stand up foryou unless it aligns with the company protecting itself from powerfulexternal forces such as government regulations the press and publicopinion The HR people are probably nice HR people might say things that youwant to hear like We will fight for you or We will protect you fromabusive behavior But what they really mean is Our job is protect the company fromyou Itrsquos likely that the people in HR are ignorantly wellshymeaning They willpromise action they will log your request they will fill out forms andhave meetings They will have a process This activity that makesthem feel like they have done something They will honestly ignorantly assure you that something is beingdone while conveniently ignoring that nothing will change
HR is not your friend but it can be used as an ally if its goals align withyours If you are cunning you will approach HR in a way that willtrigger its antibodies to protect the company from an external threatand solve your problem at the same time Human Resources is a collection of processes that hires fires andmaintains people (ie human resources) for the benefit of thecompany that pays for them When you are under pressure in adifficult situation or having a personal crisis itrsquos normal to reach out forhelp but HR isnt about whatrsquos decent or right itrsquos about what is bestfor the company Why does this matter Because the best way to handle any problemwith your employer is to move on Moving solves many careerproblems and is the best way to achieve promotion careeradvancement and other forms of happiness

operational data to work with And Irsquom not talking greenfield heremdashIrsquomtalking about a diversified IT landscape with all kinds of platforms(Linux Windows your occasional zOS mainframe and so on) In addition I canrsquot blame my peers if some of them have troublecontextualizing new technology when it seems a new ldquoOpenrdquo initiativecomes to light every day How are we able to place these newinnovations in their right context stripped off all the fluff Itrsquos hardenough for me to grasp everything new even when listening to threedifferent podcasts (including yours of course) and staying upshytoshydatewith RSS feeds of every blogger out there I get paid to bring a balanced and independent story to managers andCxOs who are sick and tired of hordes of Cisco sales reps wastingtheir time Most of the time these reps fail to bring a compelling storyand to show they understand even a little bit of what the customerrsquosbusiness is about Instead those poor managers are bombarded with slide after slide ofmarketing fluff which only obscures the essence of the product (whichmost of the time can be summarized with RFC1925 rule 11) Contraryto what some might think managers are not always stupid So if people arenrsquot changing IMHO the vendors bear a large part ofthe blame for not delivering their promises That makes most of usvery cautious about stepping into a new product If people are riskshyaverse itrsquos not out of fear of losing their jobs itrsquos because most arevery dedicated to having their network run as smooth as possible

Browser Fingerprinting Tech Works AcrossDifferent Browsers for the First Time A post in the IEEE Spectrum reports on a researcher at LehighUniversity who has developed a mechanism to identify users acrossdifferent Web browsers The mechanism uses scripting languages thatcan extract system information from the computer to create a uniquefingerprint
