Developer/IT Unions
The AI craze, layoffs, and current job market should be a wake-up call for all of us. Companies HATE how much they pay us and how much leverage we’ve had all these years.
I believe the AI craze will slow and companies will realize they still need us. When we have leverage again, we should really form unions. Im not optimistic that we will but we should.

Neme journal app (AI integration)
Hi guys! I just developed this app for journaling. I tried to keep it very minimal, for people who like to stay focused on writing and not being distracted. It implements Ai prompts so you don't have to start with a blank page. The more you write the more diary will grow with you. The Ai will learn your themes and patterns and can make links in your story even after months. You will only receive one letter each day from the Ai so it's not invasive at all. Just you and your thoughts, at your own pace. I built it because I couldn't find anything that felt calm enough. Everything out there is trying to keep you engaged. This does the opposite. Give it a try and let me know what you think — I'd love some honest feedback from people who actually journal. nemejournal.app

You Won't Believe the Tech Disney Used to Update These Rides
Carnival confirms data breach impacting nearly 6 million
Carnival Corporation, parent of Carnival Cruise Line, is sending out fresh “Notice of Cybersecurity Event” letters dated May 27, 2026. If you feel like you’ve read that sentence before, you’re not imagining things. Over the last decade, the world’s largest cruise operator has accumulated a worrying track record of breaches, ransomware incidents, and regulatory penalties, with this 2026 incident adding yet another entry to an already lengthy cybersecurity history.
There are several data breaches involving Carnival Corporation or one of its subsidiaries in our database.
Between 2019 and 2021 alone, Carnival reported four separate cybersecurity events to the New York Department of Financial Services. These included two ransomware attacks and a phishing incident in which attackers deployed malware, accessed and encrypted internal systems, and stole personal customer and employee information.
In this latest case, an attacker used social engineering to trick a Carnival employee into granting access to part of the company’s IT systems on April 14, 2026. By April 22, they used a compromised account to access a “limited portion” of Carnival’s IT systems, where they were able to copy personal data before being blocked.
According to the data breach notice filed in Maine, a total of 5,995,277 people were affected. Carnival determined that the intruder had illegally copied files containing personal information and is now writing to affected individuals to tell them that “data elements” relating to them were obtained.
Researchers cited by Gblock say the stolen data appears to include:
- Full names
- Email addresses
- Dates of birth
- Genders
- Mariner Society membership status and tier
- Internal customer identifiers
The template letter does not list specific data fields. Instead, it uses a placeholder:
“We have determined that your <<data elements>> were obtained.”
This strongly suggests that Carnival is populating each letter with data categories relevant to that particular individual, a common pattern in large breaches where people may have provided different information at different times.
Furthermore, the letters contain the usual content about the speed with which the company acted, involving third‑party experts, and frame the affected systems as a limited subset of the environment. For recipients, the important fact is not how limited the breach was from the company’s point of view, but whether the exposed information could be used for identity theft, fraud, or highly convincing phishing attacks.
Breaches happen every day. Don’t be the last to know.We do know from past Carnival incidents that exposed data has included names, addresses, dates of birth, passport numbers, health information, and payment details. In previous breaches affecting cruise lines, compromised data has ranged from basic contact details to Social Security numbers and credit card information. Carnival has not publicly disclosed the full categories of data involved in the 2026 incident, but given that this 2026 event again involves “personal information” copied from internal systems, it is reasonable to treat it as a serious privacy incident, even if the exact mix of data varies per person.
The attack was claimed by extortion group ShinyHunters, which is known to steal data and then ask for a ransom. If the victim does not agree to the terms, the data will be published and/or sold to the highest bidder.
ShinyHunters offers Carnival data for downloadFrom a cybercriminal’s perspective, cruise industry data is highly prized. Cruise passengers are often relatively wealthy, and passenger records can combine identity data (names, addresses, dates of birth, passport numbers), contact data (emails, phone numbers), and potentially payment data (card numbers and sometimes bank details), making them valuable for identity theft, targeted phishing, and fraud.
What to do if you’re affectedTo mitigate the fallout, Carnival is offering a complimentary 24‑month TransUnion credit‑monitoring package, delivered via the MyTrueIdentity platform and supported by Cyberscout for fraud assistance.
Be cautious of emails, texts, or calls claiming to come from Carnival or credit-monitoring providers, as cybercriminals often exploit breaches with phishing scams. Read our advice on what to do when you find out you’re involved in a data breach.
