Over the last few months, we have heard a lot of requests with respect to adding capability to Visual Studio Code to allow developers to build their C/C++ application. Build it like it's 1999
|
|
|
|
|
The most important point is, that Visual Studio Code now also runs on Linux and the MacOS.

Didn't it always? I thought that was the point.

I've tried it several times and always find it too... Linuxy. Meaning, you have to fiddle way to much with everything. I'd also say it tries to be a jack of all trades and thus is a master of none. In the end, when working on Linux, I find CLion to be vastly superior.

Attackers can reliably flip bits in physical memory cells in order to compromise mobile devices and computers. The problem with turning it off and on again
At least if you do it really fast.

Malware that uses a fake but realistic looking Windows message to convince users it’s a Microsoft Security Essentials installer has been making the rounds through drive-by download attacks, experts warn. As opposed to their regular installers
|
|
|
|
|
The problem could've easily been averted if the user had just noticed that the scam-ware warning messages are much cleaner than the actual MS update installer.
If you have a problem with the real MS updater you'd be lost for what to do.

That'll teach em, no it won't.
Microsoft decided a frowny face would be better than the old bsod where a phone number would be less likely to be able to be appended. As if the frowny face reduces the rage. If anything it enhances it. My elderly customers will make the call.
Really sad MS.

Hangzhou Xiongmai Technology is recalling earlier models of four kinds of cameras due to a security vulnerability You mean it wasn't "by design"?
|
|
|
|
|
A default password per device is an easy solution but not "state of the art".
Security is also done by design. and they missed it.

Is this a real recall, or a sham one where they say they're doing it but don't actually make any effort to contact their victims because doing so would cost money to issue replacements?
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?

They are recalling them so they can harvest all the data they collected with the devices.

Computer scientists have created an AI program capable of predicting the outcome of human rights trials. Then they came for the judges, and I did not speak out...
|
|
|
|
|
I can't see why they call it AI - as I see it is a data analysing software, fine-tuned for the specific area...

'It is too early to unequivocally attribute these purported signals to the activities of extraterrestrial civilizations,' a group of scientists looking for aliens have warned – but the signals are encouraging Or it could just be the microwave on the fritz again

It seems the new generation of scientist have to learn a single phrase: 'I don't know'...

On the upside, they managed to use two dozen words to say "I don't know". So if their science career doesn't work out, they'll have a bright future working in corporate PR.

Well, Dan, if this is what the aliens are telling you, I think you should just go with the flow; they are probably more interested in elephants than people, and I can see why.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

We've just decrypted this strange message from the stars.
We don't have it all yet, but transcript so far says:
"Are you paying too much on your car insurance?"

meh. It'll just be some physical anomaly that isn't present in our own solar system, so no-one knows how it works.

According to a new industry report from IDC out this morning, smartwatch shipments experienced “significant” declines in the third quarter, as total shipments were down 51.6 percent from the same time last year. From "zero" to negative?
