Microsoft is making available a free preview of another Azure-based, business-focused video service -- called Microsoft Stream -- that will ultimately supplant Office 365 Video. It's like YouTube, but without any videos you want to watch

After long suffering from stagnant development, the IronPython project for running Python on .Net is getting a new lease on life with new team leaders and a Python 3 upgrade "Sometimes, dead is better."

Quote: Python 2 will no longer be supported as of 2020, and Python 3 is the established successor.
Is there any actual community support for this yet? Last I heard pythonistas were clinging to their 2.x language version harder than a govt burrocrat was to Windoze XP.

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 lurch from employer-centric computing education to one driven by programming means the middle ground of tech skills – between basic computer proficiency and advanced code creation – has thinned out. "Why not both?"

The way I see it, I believe the guy doesn't like programming at all. Plus, he seems to be a fan of SQL Server 2016 that comes with R engines for data analysis and data presentation. Overkill.

he lacked the analytics skills to understand the connections his data could prove. Oh dear, that guy does not understand data analysis at all: he will find interesting coincidences in the data, but a "proof of connections" cannot be given by statistics.

Start by learning logic and algorithms and you have insight into both.

Redmond is not only killing your 15GB camera roll back-up bonus, it's also slashing 10GB off your account, bringing it down to 5GB. Maybe we should send them some old hard drives to help with storage?

Can I send them old memories of me and my friends? They are going to have them anyways. 
But then I see that I am a Microsoft MVP and I can find a way around these using a few of the benefits that I get. How about that, bro?

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

I remember that in the offer of the bonus was meant forever.

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...
