Google appears to be working on a new unified operating system, codenamed Fuchsia OS that will work across computers, phones, tablets, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. #FF00FF FTW?

There are interesting people working on the project, is about all we can really assume for now. With no announcement and little documentation, the rest is all filler.

Isn't fuchsia the color of puke? Coincidence?

I dunno. If my puke were fuchsia, I'd be heading to a doctor.

In a bit of perceptive role reversal, a new study has place Microsoft at the top of its list of companies with the most innovative workforce in the tech sector. They hide it well

Not too much of a surprise if you think of things like Kinnect or the astonishing AI work being done out of Cambridge.

You have to be adventurous to do what Microsoft done with W10 and not run and hide...

I'm tempted to make a snarky remark, but based on how mundane Facebook is and how jumbled Android is, they may have a point.

A group of PhD students from the MIT Media Lab and researchers from Microsoft Research have come up with the ultimate wearable: a temporary tattoo that can turn into a touchpad, remotely control your smartphone, or share data using NFC. "Have we lost the touch that does so much"

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.

Quote: and it requires only one-tenth as much code as older simulations.
So, does this increase the performance, or does this decrease the amount of code being written?
R was one of such languages, which decreases the amount of code to be written to perform data analysis, it is still a wrapper around C. I wonder if this is also a wrapper only. Increasing performance could have just require a few more CPU cores, only.

Security researchers have discovered how to use software defined radio (SDR) to remotely unlock hundreds of millions of cars. The findings are to be presented at a security conference later this week and detail two different vulnerabilities.
Or for our German speaking community:
Die funkgesteuerten Türschließ-Systeme von Millionen Autos, inklusive der Alarmanlagen, lassen sich in Sekundenschnelle knacken: Sicherheitsforscher aus Bochum und Birmingham haben Schwachstellen bei zahlreichen Herstellern ausgemacht.
Whose problem is that? Likely yours. Our your insurance's...

Well - thank goodness our vehicles are secured with these electronics and chip keys.
They were so insecure when a US$2 key would work.
Now we can spend anywhere from US$70 - $US400 and absolutely know we are safe.

Yes, but can you use the Arduino to turn off the emissions control for a better performing car?
oh, wait, that's just for diesels
