I continue wondering... are we really wanting to make computers so "intelligent" and give them even more control over "too sensitive" applications?
When it explodes in our faces, we will deserve it.

Google’s in-house incubator Area 120 is today introducing a new work-tracking tool, Tables, which aims to make tracking projects more efficient by investing in automation. Checking... checking... No, not cancelled yet
US-only (maybe for now, or maybe it's just cancelled everywhere else)

So... not enough tracking workers and other users, now they want to track the work too?

Microsoft's Chromium-based Edge was first released in January to Windows consumers and enterprises, and now Linux users will finally get a taste of Microsoft's new browser. I'm sure they'll all jump on that opportunity

I'm sure the 0.1% of Linux web devs whose management requires explicit testing of new features on Edge (as opposed to the rest of us who're just "![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) it, it's HTML5 so it's 99.9% likely to work; good enough unless a major bug report comes in") in addition to actually used browsers will be excited they don't need to fire up a W10 VM anymore.
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?

Bing mobile app users on every platform including iOS and iPadOS are at risk after terabytes of user information have been stolen from an open server. Millions of people use Bing?
On iOS?
OK, OK, millions of user data sets, so it might just be the results from the internal test scripts.

"may be"?
I would say "should be" and not only google, there are a bunch of other companies that should be in the same situation (or even worse)

Microsoft's Azure Communication Services (ACS) will give customers and partners access to the same voice, video, chat and texting services that Microsoft uses to power Teams. Now you can add that video chat function the boss has always wanted in the parts catalogue

Porting Swift to Windows is not about simply porting the compiler, but rather ensuring that the full ecosystem is available on the platform. If it's good enough for iOS, it must be good enough for Windows
Not sure what I was trying to say there, but I think I did say it. Maybe.

Edge under Chromium, Linux on Windows and now Swift...
And then we wonder why the windows updates are so crappy... with such a damned mix of so different things...

You want top-quality software, sure. But when is it time to increase the size of the testing team, so that you can deliver said top-quality software? Asking for a friend (company) in Redmond

It will be impressive when they don't need to monitor. But by then maybe we will all be in the Matrix.
