What's your programming background - C# like most people here on CP?
Then following book might be a good choice for you:

It was C++ originally (ca 1993-2000) then C#. I will check the book out. Thanks

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

While I was at a major petrochemical company (that shell remain nameless), recently, I was chuffed pink to see that the ITSec team was sending out e-mails not to preach about e-mail security, but to actually catch people out.
If you looked at the addresses they were sent from, or paid attention to the phrasing in the subject line, you could guess that they were phishing attempts, and there was a button for reporting selected e-mails as suspicious.
If you opened one (I drag suspect e-mails to a text editor), it contained a "gotcha!" and advice on how to not get caught out again, but if you reported it without opening it, you got a kudos e-mail as a follow up.
Now that is e-mail security training! Putting people to sleep in lecture rooms is nowhere near as effective.

Mozilla just launched With Great Tech Comes Great Responsibility, a guide for college students and anyone wanting to enter the tech industry to help navigate ethical issues in the tech. "Grub first, then ethics."
It's sad that Uncle Ben had to die to teach us all this.

Ethics and industry?

Some might still not know. There’s got to be some reason they keep writing that in, right?
Lazy writing? Naaaaaaaaah!

Does anyone else find it ironic that that Mozilla is delivering content as a PDF not html?
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?

I never said it was adobe.
What it is is not html, and something that you either have to read in outside the browser, or with an in browser viewer that performs far worse than in browser html.

Well, if they'd cooked them at 175-180 degrees, like you're supposed to, it might have been a mite quicker.
What's their next experiment? Seeing how long it takes to cook spaghetti* in a fridge?

They should've just laid them out on the solar panels to cook.

If they timed it right, they could cook them outside and bring them in while on the dark side of the Earth, so they'd be cooked and then frozen, ready for transport back.

Users of Google search on desktops may have noticed a slight change over the last week and that change is affecting what they perceive as an ad. This represents a further blurring of the lines between ads and organic sources in search. All of them?

DigiDay said: after Google made its mobile search changes, mobile click-through rates increased 17% to 18% for two companies
They probably see this as a great triumph, but it's still a scum-sucking scam, and pure misrepresentation.
This is something where the Advertising Standards Authority should get involved.

The authors present a coating for electronics that releases water vapor to dissipate heat from running devices -- a new thermal management method that could prevent electronics from overheating and keep them cooler compared to existing strategies. Smells like high performance computing
I'm sure that extra water around the devices will have no bad effects.
