The emergence of next-generation social, mobile, analytics and cloud technology has sparked a war for developers able to continue the fast pace of innovation. Enterprises that want to remain in business tomorrow would be wise to make the right changes today. "You see me now, a veteran of a thousand psychic wars"

By nature enterprise application move slowly...the users used to it, as they have additional value of the enterprise...
However social media connection, mobile accessibility is not new. Data analysis, like BI is part of enterprise applications since the very beginning, big-data analysis is also there for years...
So we left with the cloud - in my experience most enterprise users are keen to keep their data close to them and the IT team afraid to loose the influence it has while moving parts of the system to to cloud, and that can be a big obstacle in the near future...

Samsung's developing new Wi-Fi tech that can transfer a 1GB file between devices in under 3 seconds. I'll take two, thank you.

Today WiFi devices broadcast a relatively weak signal, but do it to every direction. A 'beam' means a powerful signal directed to some specific direction. It may solve the problem for high frequency signals, but what will happened to the materials (like your brain) in-between? Does Samsung test it too?

Good try! That is a wireless network, no big deal! Try something new for bluetooth technology, atleast try to maximize the range of their connectivity.

You know that saying about imitation being the sincerest form of flattery? It’s total hogwash, at least according to Apple’s Jony Ive. "Plus c'est la même chose"

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?

The Linux Foundation, along with leading technology companies, has launched an open-source software initiative for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The Dronecode Project is designed to bring resources and tools to developers in order to help them innovate and advance affordable and reliable drones. Drone on!

Hell yeah, now I will be able to steal the source code of neighbour developers in the form a digital mosquito!
Thanks linux!

This could bring stalking or peeping to a whole new level?

Of the 1,400 developers who participated in a recent survey, 40 percent said they were either working on applications for connected devices for the Internet of Things (IoT) now or expect to begin work on applications within the next six months. Eventually. Maybe.

If you think IoT is an end consumer technology you may be disappointed. The "things" are more likely to be smart meters, smart pallets, smart lighting, mailroom robots etc. Things that reduce the cost of doing business.
(But not to worry - these things will probably make your consumer things cheaper)

Good point, thank you. I know I tend to think in terms of the end user with iot, I need to start thinking in terms of systems.

I have yet to see one of those promises come true. What you end up hearing more often than not is "we have to raise prices to pay for all the infrastructure."
And at the end of the day, it's not cheaper for the consumer that has lost his job, replaced by some robot.[^]

They are indeed going to come faster and faster, but they are also inevitable so we need to plan for them.

Most changes can seem marginal until they reach a tipping point, then they can change the world very fast. This tipping point seems to be around 18%.
So if 18% of a certain market gets automated/innovated, the rest will have to follow or die. The first 18% is expensive and evolves slow; you think it'll take forever before it will become important, but once it reaches the tipping point it will suddenly starts to become cheap very fast.
But likewise, if 18% of the population becomes economically disadvantaged because of massive automation, will it kick off a social revolution? I think it's the same thing.

Unfortunately, they will also put other consumers out of work most likely, resulting in less consumers.

There are the clichés that Apple has promoted through the years, that PC users are corporate drones, while Apple users are freethinkers who appreciate beauty. "Drop the hate, forgive each other"

I was going to claim that this article was totally content free clickbait with no redeeming merit what so ever; but then I finished scrolling down and saw a link to something about who puts more pepperoni on its pizza; so instead I'll just accuse it of having zero content relevant to being a software engineer.

If you follow all these rules religiously, you will even guarantee yourself a lifetime of employment, since no one but you has a hope in hell of maintaining the code. Nothing new here: I've been doing this for years
Yes, a very old piece, but it is a 'goldie'
