Quote: Respondents were asked to use a scale of 1 to 5 to rate how comfortable they would be having autonomous vehicles pick up and drop off their children (with 1 being not at all comfortable and 5 being very comfortable). A majority of respondents in each group -- 70.8% of ITS members and 59.7% of IEEE social media followers -- pinned their comfort levels at a 3 or below.
I wonder what the scores would be for a car driving them (that they could override if something went wrong).
Quote: More than three-quarters (75.5%) of ITS members indicated that they would use autonomous vehicles for daily errands, while 74.1% said they would commute in them and 60.7% said they'd use them for road trips.
I find this a bit interesting since incremental improvements in autonomous driving will pay out on the interstate long before crowded urban streets.

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?

Microsoft Edge is an interesting browser, simply because it’s missing a rather hefty amount of vital features for people to want to make the switch from Chrome or Firefox. And drag and drop file upload is coming when?

It's particularly annoying that it works in IE10 and IE11, but not in Edge. They claimed to be "working on it"[^] back in August, but no indication of when we can expect to see it.

Requiring the installation of every patch will provide a better user experience, Joe Belfiore says. It's a conspiracy to get you to download that "cumulative patch" that is Windows 10

Quote: Microsoft will also offer Long-Term Servicing Branches that will allow IT managers to restrict certain devices to only receive security updates after installing Windows 10. That's not designed for use in all the computers in an organization, however, despite providing more control.
good luck with that. I'd be surprised if 3/4ths of W10 Enterprise installs aren't on LTSBs a few years from now; and shocked if it's less than 50%.

Microsoft is looking to relaunch Windows Wallet, a mobile payments app that stores credit cards, coupons and membership information, to improve both the in-store payment experience and online payments with Windows devices, a top Microsoft executive said in a joint interview with The Verge and Recode. I don't know what they're talking about: I've been paying for Windows for years (and paying for it)

Now the question is... are they gonna jail the kid? or give him a job?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Kid walks into your office. His resume only contains "hacked AOL account by misleading someone on the telephone".
What kind of job would you give him?

Microsoft stated on October 6th that more than 110 million devices already run Windows 10. But which businesses have already bought into Microsoft's latest desktop operating system? This survey has the answers. I'm betting adoption is pretty low at Apple and Google

Work is at least looking at it, which is more than they did for 8/8.1; where I've been told that I can't have a VM/standalone machine with it because it's completely unsupported by their infrastructure and their w7 only site license trumps my msdn keys (or more likely their license audit tool isn't smart enough to realize my msdn key comes from a pool other than the one it manages). ATM they're still in wait and see mode because much of the enterprise tooling isn't out yet...
Separately, this is the first article I've seen that's gone beyond "ZOMG upgrade rates are slowing down a lot, W10 is failsauce. WTFLOLBBQIDKFA!!!!" to observe that it's upgrade rate is blowing W7's away.

This malicious browser looks and acts just like Chrome--except for all the pop-up ads, system file hijacking, and activity monitoring. But it's still better than IE8, right?
