I almost used yours for the example but it looked like you would want it remain private.

Kent keeps publishing his password; it seems he's a security exhibitionist

Be happy... it could be worst... just imagine he would be another kind of exhibitionist... Like Sean with the mankini...

Nobody likes passwords, says Microsoft's chief information security officer. Here's how the software giant is getting rid of them for good. If you outlaw 'p@ssword1' only outlaws will use 'p@ssword1'

I suppose I'll use Menage et toi sometime in the near future. After that, I'll go for what some of you thought that meant in French.

From the article...
First of all the lead-in line from that article says, "Here's how the software giant is getting rid of them for good." But that really isn't explained anywhere in the article. 
Arsenault (MS CISO) said: "Today, 99.9% of our users don't enter passwords in their environment. That said – progress over perfection – there are still legacy apps that will still prompt [for a password]," he says.
Ummm...I call BS.
First of all 99.9%?? Hmmm...
Secondly, back there behind all that...there is still a password, so...
I use my fingerprint on my laptop but that only works on that laptop...if it messes up I still have to type a password. Same thing with PIN.

We show how to learn a map that takes a content code, derived from a face image, and a randomly chosen style code to an anime image. I admit to posting this one almost entirely due to the name

As the near-final Windows 11 build that leaked yesterday is still being dissected by early enthusiasts, one of them has managed to find a hidden “Windows 11 SE” SKU in the build. We hear everyone enjoys online-only games, so why not OSes?

I have an application that was built and compiled for .NET Core 2.1. If I deploy the app on a machine that only has .NET Core 5.0 installed, will this application run? Welcome to Version Heck
The Java folk will need to slide down a little to make room.
Edit: of course, the more I think of this, it's been a problem since 2.0. It just hasn't "felt" like a problem for a while as it seemed everything was happy(-ish, very -ish) in the GAL.

Not many people realize that in addition to its scientific data and news releases, NASA also shares a substantial amount of free resources on its website: ebooks, children’s materials, podcasts, and similar. "She's a model and she's looking good"
Sorry (not sorry), but I've had Kraftwerk on the brain (and in the ears) a lot lately.

The Project Reunion dev team fixed a bunch of bugs in the new v0.8 RC as Microsoft's evolution of the Windows desktop app development platform nears stability. 'Nears stability' doesn't give me quite the level of confidence they were hoping for
"We have heard that Windows development is hard. It's harder than it should be. It's harder than it needs to be." And so we'll add a new way to write Windows programs.

I have come to think that "nears stability" is Microsoft-speak for "we will deprecate it soon".

With .NET Interactive/.NET Notebooks at the heart, consider this command-line experimental REPL (Read Evaluate Print Loop) to be a text-based notebook! Who needs a compiler when you can just type your program up on the command-line

Honest question here: Is this useful for anything other than trying out unusual syntax?
I can't think of a productive purpose for something like that.

That's pretty much the only use I could think of. I'd add, "doing a database query when the SQL dev tools are too far to reach" or "a curl replacement".

Why, if the compiler can figure out that ; is expected, can't it just add it
error: ? expected.
