even more so if you hit your friend in the knee with the calculus book.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Unless, of course, that lake is in Jellystone park, then you're SOL.

New research has found that artificial intelligence (AI) analyzing medical scans can identify the race of patients with an astonishing degree of accuracy, while their human counterparts cannot. "Would anyone like me to help interpret the shadowy portents within their orb?"

Microsoft Research’s new language makes code safer and more secure. "Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play"

They do realize that "F*" means something other than F-Star, right?
|
|
|
|
|
 It's also what you say when working in the language, I guess?

We recently asked in an installer survey what you’d find valuable to see while you’re staring at the installer screen during updates/installations in Visual Studio 2022, and y’all said tips and tricks! What would I like to see on the VS installer screen? 'Done.'

Microsoft has released the Windows 10 KB5005932 setup update to fix '"PSFX_E_MATCHING_BINARY_MISSING" errors when attempting to install the latest cumulative updates. But if you can't install updates...

Next up, White House talks to banks to find out why some people want to rob them. (It's a real mystery.)

Developers can now discover Microsoft's code editors in the Store. It's hard to install it otherwise
Really, people? You really want to try to make people use that store, don't you?

If you can't find VS 2019 Community download, perhaps computer programming isn't in your future.

It's kind of surprising they didn't already have it on their store. It's not a good sign if even Microsoft isn't putting their stuff on their own store platform
