Just as we got a conviction in the #Vastaamo case, now #Helsinki primary education IT has been breached and 120k students', parents' and teachers' info has been stolen.
Details are sparse, but parts of what has been revealed sound like a #Office365#breach to me. Not confirmed though.
"Possibly the largest data breach affecting [Finland's] municipal sector"
Major data #leak could affect up to 120k pupils, guardians and city workers in #Helsinki | Yle #News | The breach was carried out from outside #Finland. The files included information on parents' early childhood education fees and their payment, sensitive data regarding children' s situations at schools — their special support requirements, medical reports in regard to middle school pupils' suspensions, details about educators' and training staff sick leave. #hackers https://yle.fi/a/74-20088448
You don't see auroras every day over Helsinki, but today's solar storm is really strong. With naked eye it doesn't look quite this colourful, but phone camera sees the sky this way.
We got a cool new bike tunnel in #Helsinki, just did a test ride! A huge improvement, replaces a very fraught and annoying route in front of the railway station.
Taas Hesari kertoo faktana, että Helsingin keskusta "näivettyy". En tosin asu Suomessa, mutta en ole tätä näivettymistä itse Helsingissä silloin tällöin käydessäni havainnut. Onko tästä jotain todellista faktaakin olemassa?
"...a second #Finnair plane, which was on its way from #Helsinki to #Estonia was forced to turn back [due to] GPS interference.... 'The same thing happened as the day before. Somewhere halfway along its route, the plane turned back, around 15 minutes before landing. The pilot said that approaching Tartu at night requires an accurate GPS signal, and there was not one because of interference from the eastern neighbors,' a passenger [said]"
A plane flying from #Helsinki#Finland to #Tartu#Estonia, couldn't land at the Tartu airport on the night of Friday due to #GPS interference from #Russia and returned to Helsinki.
We had a terrible traffic jam in #finland#today. Especially in #Helsinki. Busses were late or they didn't arrive at all. Trams didn't work. The last time something similar was experienced in #Helsinki more than 50 years ago.
Helsingissä kehitettiin maailman ensimmäinen tekoälykahvi – siis #kahvi, jonka reseptin on luonut tekoäly. Kahvin nimi on #AI-conic
In #Helsinki, the world's first artificial intelligence #coffee was developed - that is, coffee whose recipe was created by artificial intelligence. The name of the coffee is AI-conic #suomimastodon#finland https://www.helsinginuutiset.fi/paikalliset/6707891
Helsingin osallistuva budjetointi on monessa mielessä ongelmallista, nyt aiheesta on toimittajan kolumni Hesarissa. Tästä olisi hyvä keskustella enemmänkin.
"Ensimmäinen ongelma on, että lopulta kaupunkilaiset päätyvät ohjaamaan rahaa hankkeisiin, joiden kuvittelisi oikeasti kuuluvan joka tapauksessa kaupungin vastuulle.
Nyt kaupunkilaiset joutuvat hankkimaan virkistysrahoista keinun liikuntavammaisille lapsille, katuvaloja sekä roska-astioita asuinalueelleen.
Veronmaksajana sitä toivoisi, että kaupunki hoitaisi tällaiset asiat ilman, että niitä pitää erikseen toivoa melko hitaan ja raskaan prosessin kautta.
Toiveissa näkyvät alueelliset erot kertovat myös kaupungin sisäisestä jakautumisesta. Vuoden 2020 äänestyksessä Töölönlahdelle äänestettiin kirsikkapuita, Mellunkylässä taas nuoret joutuivat äänestyksen kautta pyytämään, että alueelle saataisiin kierrätyspisteitä huumeneuloille."
I've revised my requirements for a successful #Helsinki spring MVP. There's only one left: no snow or ice on Kaivopuisto on vappu (May 1st). Acceptance testing is going to be easy but I have no clue about the team's velocity. Nature's PO won't answer my calls, email is set to autoreply: "#ClimateChange".
The first this year is on Wednesday 3rd of April, kindly hosted by #Wolt in collaboration with #Aiven and the Helsinki Open Source Data Infrastructure group.
