Until he puts it on a rocket that launches from the planet into orbit, I'm not going to hold my breath. We do know there is an anomalous force applied to probes doing gravity slings. They tend to come out faster than expected. However, this isn't the same amount of thrust that is needed to get off the ground.

Sounds pretty cool.
There's been some big news covered (here I think) about the advances people are making in materials science especially as concerns "localized magnetism" because I can't think of what they actually called it.
You guys realize what it almost definitely means?
That's right.
Hoverboards are coming.

Often when reading about the language you'll find all sorts of "performance tips and tricks" or "do this instead because it's more efficient". The not-likely final word

it is not the language... it is the way you use it.

With 30% of US companies at least exploring the idea now, and a small but growing number of companies actually trying it, there's a real possibility it will take hold. Ask me on Friday

We do every other Monday with the general expectation that a day run about 8.75 hrs.
But nobody here clock watches either way afaik.
I love my job, but I'd jump on handing some money back and calling ~32h/wk good in an instant.

I think anyone can be a 10x engineer. It’s not a personal quality; it’s a cumulative effect of all the small decisions you make as a software developer — the tools you choose, the way you debug, the way you act with your team mates. Just remember to set the quantity before sitting your dev on the photocopier

Then I'll never be one, most of my career I have been a one man show.
And now 190 people depends on my job, but they have almost no interaction with me.

They did that, the first time. A transporter malfunction caused it to be lost.

Installing apps through the web-based Microsoft Store now works a bit differently. Why not both?

That's why I keep a copy of all the offline installers of software I use and use a VM to install new software to be tested.

While most of the malware-associated activity was based around the Microsoft GitHub URLs, this "flaw" could be abused with any public repository on GitHub or GitLab, allowing threat actors to create very convincing lures. If only there were some way of doing version control inside your firewall?!

I came across comments on a recent Reddit post and thought it would be intriguing to analyze the DLLs of Visual Studio 2022 (version 17.9.6) using NDepend. Come for the unlikely headline, stay for the interesting analysis of just what a house of wet, jagged cards we live in.
Well, interesting to me, of course.

Windows 11 can be perceived as annoying due to its frequent updates, compatibility issues with older software, changes in interface design disrupting familiarity, privacy concerns, and system requirements excluding older devices.
