They got enough data from that project and now they need the room for another one that they will kill/slash in the future.

They are going to use it to store all the build files as they finally go about fixing the bugs they have been sweeping under the rug in Visual Studio and their other products

Thank you for the reminder. I am taking advantage of the one year subscription to Office 365 Personal for now and I can debate whether to keep my Office 365 Business account for another year.

I still have 140GB. 25GB of it expires next month. 100GB of it expires next February. I've known about both expiration dates for quite a while. What's unclear is whether my 10GB loyalty bonus will stick around.
I actually like how OneDrive works far more than Dropbox and, especially, Google Drive, but the latter integrates better with Android (better; it still sucks--for reasons that escape me, it refuses to sync up some pictures I took yesterday.)

Most of us think of website hacks as illicit activities aimed at siphoning critical information or disrupting the business of website owners. But what happens when your site becomes hacked, not for the purpose of harming you but rather to further the ends of other parties? It's 2am: do you know what your hamsters are doing?

That happened to me some time ago. The SEO spam was relatively harmless: a script showing the referrers of the visitors could be run by everyone. Closed that, but still many stupid SEO guys spamming my site with faked referrers.
Worse was the injection of an obfuscated javascript which opened an invisible window in which another hacked site was to be shown (see Analysing an obfuscated malware script - JavaScript Discussion Boards[^]). Likely for downloading malware, but that other site was fortunately blocked by the virus scanner of the server...

When a Mommy hamster and a Daddy hamster love each other very much...
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?

Isn't that putting the cart before the horse.

When a Boy hamster and a Girl hamster get married.
Is that both bowdlerized and accurate enough? 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

A team of scientists from Oxford University used a virtual prototype to demonstrate how the natural movement of bacteria could be harnessed to turn cylindrical rotors and provide a steady power source. Beware of very small Don Quixotes

Bacteria wind farms? Sounds like a guy i once knew at a previous company.
Every day, after a lunch of voluminous amounts of legumes his bacterial wind farm would start production!

You should have used him to power the company!

why not "hamster wheel farms"
perhaps it would be easier to control ?

It has been about two weeks since we shipped .NET Core / ASP.NET Core 1.0. The team has used the past two weeks to take a deep breath, and is now getting started on planning what is coming next. Now that the "small, lightweight" version is launched, time to start shoveling stuff into it.

(upvoted) "...start shoveling stuff into it..."
hahaha, indeed, this is inevitable

Orleans is a framework that provides a straightforward approach to building distributed high-scale computing applications, without the need to learn and apply complex concurrency or other scaling patterns. It was created by Microsoft Research and designed for use in the cloud. Now you too can take a little trip along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip.

This is actually a pretty amazing bit of technology - basically bringing event sourcing (CQRS) into the .NET framework (and in the process making my efforts over the last 3 years largely redundant  ) - but the rainbow projecting unicorns write-up doesn't really help their cause.

Microsoft isn't going to make its self-imposed deadline of having Windows 10 installed on 1 billion devices by mid-2018, company officials have conceded. Shocked. I'm completely shocked.
