The goal will be to rebrand most of Verizon's media franchises as Yahoo products, and to focus on selling subscriptions to those products via a rebranded subscription portfolio called "Yahoo Plus." Everyone loves Yahoo and is willing to pay for it, right?

Wow, this is going to go well.
It smacks of a decision made by executives you have never heard of Yahoo (except in terms of being one of their properties).
Maybe, just maybe, Yahoo's image will be revitalised and modernised. Or perhaps it might go on being a (admittedly still big) also-ran.

Starting in the late 1980s, a group led by Rob Pike and UNIX co-creators Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie developed Plan 9. "Ah, yes. Plan 9 deals with the resurrection of the dead."
You can tell they're old, because they still use, "cyberspace" unironically.

The release of the first major release of Crystal arrives after many years of hard work. "Outlook not so good."
Oh, I'm sure that some will use this ruby/python clone, I just don't think that set will include me.

Cool, yet another new language. I'm sure it's very good.
I wish them good luck. New languages are always intriguing.
BUT... are we reaching "peak language"? Have we hit enough languages that cover the same ground as earlier ones (no matter how good they are)? Or am I just being boring?

That's how I feel about it, yeah. I know we need new languages to experiment with features that end up in the "real" languages, but it's just tiring to watch them fly by.

This is going to be huge!! Almost as big as Yahoo!'s purchase of Tumblr.
Maybe infinitely bigger X 2 or 7.

Slowly but surely the Rust language is making its way into Linux. I talked with Linus Torvalds and Greg Kroah-Hartman about where they see Rust and Linux working together. Usually along the edges where the paint gets worn off

That article is funny. The quote from the top is..." I talked with Linus Torvalds and Greg Kroah-Hartman about where they see Rust and Linux working together."
But that's not right. The author spoke to the Kroah-Hartman and Kroah-Hartman kept quoting what Torvalds said and how he felt about it.
We're talking to the guy, who talked to the guy, who talked to THE GUY. 
Journalism at it's best.

I'm not sure how you reached that conclusion. I just read the article and it seemed to have separate quotes from the two.

Oh, I must've mis-read. I didn't see where the author spoke to Linus, just saw the quotes from the other.

Google's new Wi-Fi Aware functionality, also known as Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN), allows devices running on Android 8.0 (API level 26) and higher to detect and directly connect to each other without any secondary connectivity, such as Bluetooth. So you'll know what to disable once you start getting all that spam from nearby phones
