Let's just say my comment is bad because apparently it requires explanation to be funny.

Along with the beta comes the first set of developer tools for the browser, helping publishers and programmers to build their websites around Maelstrom’s P2P technology. "I'll chase him round the Moons of Nibia and round the Antares Maelstrom and round Perdition's flames before I give him up!"

If you're using Lucene.NET you're probably aware that there hasn't been an update for a long time while the Java version has been moving on constantly. At one point it even looked like the Lucene.NET project would die. I've been observing the Lucene.NET developer mailing list for a while and, joy oh joy, it looks like there will be a Lucene.NET 4.8.0 release soon:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucenenet-dev/[^]
While it's not ready just yet, I thought I'd give you a heads-up in case you're contemplating to abandon the supposedly sinking ship.

All I can say is: w00t!
We use Lucene.NET and even started our own cleaner, neater port of Lucene (the current port is...er...interesting). Any word on what changes are in store? Actual .NET centric code instead of a direct port from Java? Or is that asking too much?
cheers

Numerous commits have the 'word' .NETification in them, usually preceded by the term API.
So yes. .NET Centric Code is on the way in 4.8!
W00T!!

That might be a bit over-enthusiastic; from what I've gathered from the dev-mailinglist, they strive to port it in a .NET centric way, especially where performance can be gained by doing that, but getting the tests to pass has priority over that. Nonetheless, it'll probably be way better than in 3.0.3.

DNA profiling (or genetic fingerprinting) has proved to be a revolutionary tool for forensic investigators as a means to identify potential suspects, exonerate the innocent and convict the guilty. But, like any forensic technique, it has its limitations. One limitation is in cases involving identical twins, something that has raised technical, legal and ethical problems — until now. Grob, Bob's evil twin brother, is in for a rude awakening.

Well, given the probable number of cases where an identical twin tries to blame his twin for a crime he's committed, such research just has to be worth several million of taxpayers' money.

"Here I am JD, the ghost in the machine"
He is probably right - I certainly can see a way that a certain fruit based technology company could effectively corner the market in foreign exchange trading by using their truly gargantuan cash reserves as an "all the currencies there are" hedge. Plus the big pile of cash could then be classified as a reserve not a profit and therefore not subject to tax.

Together with the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE), the Jeopardy! winning computer has created perhaps the world's first-ever cookbook co-created by computer algorithms. "Cognitive Cooking with Chef Watson" is set to go on sale April 14th. A bacon beer cocktail? Shut up and take my money!

Chickens may be more intelligent that Watson, but Watson is far more efficient at food poisoning.
