Quote: Doctor Web's security experts researched several new threats to Mac OS X. One of them turned out to be a complex multi-purpose backdoor that entered the virus database as Mac.BackDoor.iWorm. News.DrWeb.com[^]
Haven't seen this here, and it seems legit.

Reading through the online readme file for Visual Studio "14" CTP, I found a section in the German translation of the document about an undisclosed CTP4 release, including working download links. Looks like CTP4 is around the corner, I'd expect a public announcement soon.
Note: The section about CTP4 is not in the original English version of the KB article (link above), you have to view the German translation. The download links can be found under Auf dieser Seite + Visual Studio "14" CTP 4 (Version 14.0.22126.1.DP) Informationen + Weitere Informationen + Produkte in the article hierarchy. The ISO is, like all CTPs, in English language only.
According to the readme, there are improvements in ASP.NET and web tooling, CLR (a new version of the 64-bit JIT Compiler), Debugger, and XAML (the editor supports peek definition now).
Cheers!

Looks like a killjoy found out and pulled all translations down. Anyway, the web doesn't forget, so here is what it looked like (Google Cache).
Update: Download links are down by now. I wonder why they cared to do it because I'd expect a public release within the next few days and only few people will be interested in the bits anyways.

The strictly typed, purely functional language is 'a Haskell for the JVM'. Do you ever think about how many non-Js there are on the JVM?

In a recent article, Alex Payne, organizer of the Emerging Languages Camp, provides insight on how the language landscape has changed in the last five years and how it might change in future. "Tools make the man"

Yes, but what a man makes with his tools, that's a different story.

Very true, but it doesn't look as good on a bumper sticker.

And when the man is a tool is a third.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

Ever try using a five-year-old PC to get anything done? That's because over time, the OS decays. "The ruins now worn away with age, yet still majestic in decay."
|
|

|

I don't think that was the case with DOS. I expect that a 20-year-old PC with DOS would still work just as well as it did.

Decay? Is that actually spelled, r-e-g-i-s-t-r-y, maybe? Aka single point of failure - enormous system database that is all gunked up.

Why, whatever do you mean??? It's simply a NoSQL document style key-value pair database, after all!

A beta of the next version of Microsoft's Visual Studio and other new tools for Windows developers are expected to get updates in November. "There's always something"
|
|
|
|
|
Google’s Scott Jenson, an interaction and UX designer who left the company only to return to the Chrome team last November, has revealed a project underway at the company called The Physical Web to provide “interaction on demand” so that people can walk up and use any smart devices without the need for intervening mobile apps. We'll be surrounded by 'smart' things, and dumb people
So... yeah. Somethings never change.

Its been almost two years since the release of Windows 8, yet Windows 7 is still dominating the Windows platform by having a commanding market share of 52.71%. How fast can they get Wen ready for shipping?

Of course - after W10 news, no one will update to 8. To learn touch screen just to forget it after 6 months?!

Touch won't get away, what's changing is that the UI will adapt to the kind of device and input method you use (touch, digitizer, mouse/keyboard).

As a part of the Windows team, we’re super excited about the Windows 10 Technical Preview that was just released! The final version of Windows 10 will ship with DirectX 12, and we think it's going to be awesome. Didn't someone say that was dead recently?

The one dead is DirectX 11 - it's like in Dr. Who...
