Trust is the cornerstone. Whether developers creating new products from Microsoft's software platforms or corporations and other institutions relying more on AI and the cloud, the T word means everything. I'll just put this here and run away

The only trust Microsoft has built with me is I can count on them to screw something up when I'm trying to meet a deadline or to force an update at the most inopportune time.

In a new paper, researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) have shown that neural networks contain subnetworks that are up to one-tenth the size yet capable of being trained to make equally accurate predictions—and sometimes can learn to do so even faster than the originals. Homeopathic AI!
"If we can determine precisely which part of the original network is relevant to the final prediction, scientists might one day be able to skip this expensive process altogether." << this is why I don't have a PhD.

I do have a PhD, but this is still bollocks.
Fractal NNs were always an idea, and were always best left as just an idea.
It's hard enough to predict what an NN will come up with (and if you can't predict it, it's very probably wrong), so saying that a "sub-NN" will do anything useful at all is a -- and I can't emphasise this enough -- A F***ING, BLOODY, MINDLESS, STUPID THING TO SAY!

Changes in complex software systems seem like they take forever, don’t they? Even to engineers it often feels like changes take longer than they should, and we understand the reasons for the underlying complexity in the system! Because you spent all the time writing the explanation?

The new Windows Subsystem for Linux will use a real Linux kernel. It's the Year of Linux on the Desktop!
Finally!
|
|
|
|
|
Not that it isn't cool, but couldn't they make the core changes necessary to Windows code, and then let you add the package for the full subsystem from the MS store if you wanted? This '64 Gig disk space needed to update' is getting ridiculous, and I don't foresee using Linux on my machine. (Or Candy Crush, or any of the other stuff they are pushing on us for that matter. Heck, I haven't even played Solitaire in years.)

AFAIK WSL is still an optional component, the title text here overstates its pervasiveness.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

Quote: WSL 2 will also use a similar split as the current WSL does: the kernel component will be shipped with Windows while "personalities" as provided by the various Linux distributions can be installed from the Microsoft Store.
From the article ^. The sentences give me the impression the kernel will add something to the main installer. Don't know how much, or if it is possible to plug that kernel in later. But it isn't something I'll use.

It's actually better to install Linux for day-to-day stuff, and Windows in a VM if you have apps that don't have an acceptable Linux analog, such as Visual Studio or DVD ripping software.

Oh, come on! You know you really want to run Linux in a Windows VM on a Linux machine! /s!

Of course... it is the best option. 
This way if MS screws it even harder, you just need to delete a VM instead of reinstalling everything

If you haven’t heard of IntelliCode, it’s a set of AI-assisted capabilities that aims to improve developer productivity with features like contextual IntelliSense, code formatting and style rule inference. "It's dangerous to go alone, take this"
