I believe that was the working title of VB.
(In all fairness, I remember using VB 1.0 when it came out and was blown away, but times move on).

I remember too. I remember dragging that button on the form and displaying that first message. Wow.
I believe VB 1.0 came on 3 3.5" disks.
It was quite powerful.

Dev candidates: if you’ve done any reading at all, you know that most of your interviews will involve writing some code on a whiteboard. A word of advice: writing code on whiteboards is hard. Practice! It's true! I can never get the Intellisense working

How about a vision system watching the board combines with a projector and use this for intellisense?
Screw it just put up a huge touchsurface instead of whiteboards. XD

You got all wrong...
This is not an exploit, but a poor way of obfuscating your JavaScript code...
If you read the original material (http://conference.hitb.org/hitbsecconf2015ams/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/D1T1-Saumil-Shah-Stegosploit-Hacking-with-Pictures.pdf), you will understand that the problem is not by looking at the image, but that the very same image used as the source of a script tag!!!
So actually "I don’t need to host a blog, I don’t need to host a website at all. I don’t even need to register a domain" is a false statement (and I'm tempted to say that is for creating fear just for self promotion) as you DO need a full html page with a script and an image tag that point to the very same image...

A couple of weeks after rumors first hit the Internet that Microsoft might be in talks to acquire the popular "to-do" app Wunderlist, a new report claims that the acquisition is a done deal. Scratch that off their to-do list

Microsoft has included a new feature in the latest build of Windows 10 and while it may not seem like a big deal right now, it paves the way for an improved user experience going forward. That feature is the ability to open multiple instances of a Modern app. Great. Multiple copies of apps I'm not interested in running. Progress!

In other words, multiple instances of Office apps, because most "Modern" apps don't stop you from opening up multiple instances except Office apps, where the new document is added to the existing app, making it impossible to view documents side by side.

It's interesting you mention Office. I'm running Office 2010 and it does my head in that I can't run multiple instances of Excel. Open 2 spreadsheets and they will always appear in the same MDI window. Completely useless on a multi-monitor setup.
Maybe Win10 will be good after all

Exactly the use case I was thinking of!

Try This Registry File[^]
I just created it based on some info I found (basically I disabled Excel's DDE usage, which is what caused the multiple documents in one instance issue)

Granted I currently use Office 2013, but I don't remember ever having issues with two Excel documents being viewed on two monitors ... or side by side on single for that matters

You can run multiple instances of Excel 2010 by shift-clicking on the Window's taskbar icon, and opening different documents in each of them (via drag and drop if you wish) but Excel barfs when copying data from one instance to another. 
|
|
|
|
|
Run Excel.exe and then open another file.
Or on Windows 7, open the first file, then middle-click on Excel in the taskbar to open a second instance of it.
|
|
|
|
|
Ahem.
Options | Advanced | Display | Show all windows in the taskbar
|
|
|
|
|
Yep -that shows all child windows in the task bar, but doesn't let you actually treat child windows as separate windows.

Using this, I was able to move a different spreadsheet onto each different monitor.

Office 2010 or 2013?

Office 2010. I believe it was removed in 2013.
