    Google Chrome has a feature that allows you to store your credit card information on the browser. If someone were to hack into your system, they would be able to get access to everything on your laptop. The only piece of information hackers still don’t have is your CVV number and the only way for them to obtain that number is through phishing attacks. If you have the autofill option enabled, you put yourself at risk of hackers being able to make purchases with your card.

    Engineer Onboarding: The Ugly Truth About Ramp-Up Time. Swimm surveyed 80 engineers and engineering managers about their onboarding journey. They reported it takes, on average, 3–9 months to fully ramp-up. This could mean a great deal of extra engineering time for your organization. From the moment you find your estimated time, the next step would be to try and decrease it. The rewards can be very significant. If you manage to cut the time of full ramp up in half, that would mean around 17 more developer-years in that year.
