Welcome to Random Short Take #97. Let’s get random.

• I’m a little behind on the news, but Preston wrote about what’s new with PowerProtect Data Manager 19.17.
• Speaking of data protection, if you’re a Mac user I bet you think you know a bit about Time Machine. This article from Howard Oakley might make you think otherwise.
• Do you need a Stratum 1 NTP server at home? I didn’t think I did, but this article from Justin Paul has me reconsidering it.
• Security is hard. And security for operational technology (OT) can be a real pain too. This article over at Gigaom covers some of the challenges.
• Speaking of security, Chin-Fah put together a great piece on data governance for cybersecurity and AI.
• Speaking of AI, the Active Archive Alliance has released a special report on Active Archives and AI.
• Henry Rollins recently made an appearance on The Vinyl Guide podcast talking about his Stay Fanatic!!! series of books and his obsession with music history. Worth checking out if (like me) you’re a fan of Henry or record collecting (or both).
• Speaking of archiving, here’s a great piece on archiving CD-ROMs on Linux.
