Turns out it's actually a sunny day in Oslo today, although it's the last one I'll see here for quite some time before heading off to Denmark then other European things for the remainder of this trip. I'm talking a little about those events (all listed on my events page), this week's changes to EV, more data breaches and a somewhat semantic argument about the definition of "theft".
