What problems could it cause? As far as I can see, the only likely problem is false positives. But that's going to benefit the SSD manufacturers isn't it...

The company announced two new open-source projects today that are aimed at solving the growing problem of “space junk” and also help startups to build applications for satellite constellations. Can I make a pull request to get into orbit?

The Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 will bypass the Windows 10 firewall and any configured rules, raising security concerns for those who use the feature. Linux can go firewall itself

This is either manifestly sensible or a severe security risk. I'm not sure which yet!
It also occurs to me that WSL-malware is going to be a thing sooner or later.

I fear sooner (than we would like to) and really sooner (than they will able to find or to fix)

European lawmakers seem to be running out of patience with how US tech firms work. Sad news for those Candy Crush people
Yeah, not an auto-installed app on phones. Sorry, I'm blanking on that end.

Maybe the legislation will still count if you run W10 on your phone. Gotta be someone.

Why do I expect something like:
EU: OK, users have the rigth to delete what they want.
US Tech Firm: Fine, here you have
User: Ok, I am not going to use this, let's get rid of it
Phone: Black screen.

I've recently read multiple "giant tech" articles that somehow don't mention Microsoft and this is one of them.

Microsoft pulled the Cumulative Update package 7 (CU7) for SQL Server 2019 released on September 2 after confirming a known reliability issue impacting customers who used the database snapshot feature. I see the SQL team is trying to keep up with everyone else over there

The problems you encounter with user acceptance testing aren’t technical. They’re all political. The user is always right, even when they're wrong
And then can be very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very wrong.

|
|
|
Right!
The ueser's understanding of the problem is inessential. We should solve it the way we understand it, disregarding the user!

I would expand that to "users and managers" or generalize it to "the one who pays the bill"
Quote: Some of the things the user may not like, or that negatively impact their workflow, are not actual functional errors. Therefore, the system may have passed every test run with flying colors and is still ‘wrong,’
So... thats the reason why all the companies now ignore users feedback even when reporting real errors and issues and concentrate in increase the flying colors (and don't forget the new icons)?

Scientists have created a device which could make it easier to harness super-fast quantum computers for real-world applications, a team at Finland's Aalto University said on Wednesday. Is it a practical use for a quantum computer?
"The Finnish team discovered that a device called a bolometer" Wasn't that a series of stories about smart tanks?

I rather thought imagined that a bolometer was a device to measure the speed of a bolas in flight...
