From the emerging spring to the impending autumn, I'm back in Oslo at the beginning of another series of European events that'll take me across Norway, Denmark, Hungary and Switzerland. This week's update comes from under the glow of a warm outdoor heater at ridiculous o'clock as my sleep cycle keeps me making early starts. But it's all transient and by this time next month I'll be back to a very warm, very familiar Aussie landscape. For now, here's what's new on my side:

- Chrome 77 is about to hit and finally kill off EV for good (that'll be the end of org names next to the address bar, but will it be the end of commercial CAs telling people that?)
- It's ok to let old tech die (do we really want organisations beholden to perpetually supporting legacy devices merely for historical purposes?)
