I'm holding my breath for an AI to be able to distinguish between:
truths and lies
facts and conspiracy theories
ethical and not
intelligent and stupid
emotional intelligence and psychopathic
(apologies if this treads on an SB response.)

|
|
Holding my breath for humans to solve any of these tasks as well

A report published today by the Consortium for Information & Software Quality (CISQ) estimates poor software quality collectively cost companies in the U.S. an estimated $2.08 trillion in 2020. Everyone put a quarter in the bug jar, and we'll have it paid off in no time

Has anyone questioned the quality of their attempts to calculate, at least theoretically input data algorithms? 
And speaking of input data - over the course of my career, the quality of the data that the software uses in directly proportional to the "holistic" quality of the software.
It would be a more fruitful study, IMO, if it looked at just how absolutely crappy the data source is.

In my programming career, there have been a few times when being a contrarian was good, and just as many times where I should have kept my mouth shut and stuck to the textbook or company charter. "Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of any statement the other person makes."

I have had those times too, where it would have been better to shut up. But looking back, there are actually more occasions where I should have told... "fvck off", "Go to hell", "are you nuts?" or "no ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) ing way I am doing that"

At Ignite 2019 Microsoft released the first bits of Windows UI Library (WinUI) version 3 (a.k.a. WinUI 3), an evolution of the UWP/XAML platform, that decouples the XAML UI framework from the Windows OS. Absolutely, positively, conclusively, the ultimate Windows UI library. Until something else.

A major challenge when it comes to using robots to explore other planets is keeping them operating when there’s no way to repair them from Earth. "Ice, ice baby, too cold"
Hopefully not with ice-nine.

Robots made out of ice?
Here's the repair kit[^]
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
