Much like the Toy-Story alien groupies.
Quote: It all adds up to a type of capillary action. Basically, the mass of the Cheerios is insufficient to break the milk's surface tension. But it's enough to put a tiny dent in the surface of the milk in the bowl, such that if two Cheerios are sufficiently close, they will naturally drift toward each other. The "dents" merge and the "O"s clump together. Add another Cheerio into the mix, and it, too, will follow the curvature in the milk to drift toward its fellow "O"s.
Proof of Einstein's theory of Gravity.

With everything from cars, to trucks, to even airplanes going electric, the demand for batteries is going to continue to skyrocket in the coming years—but the availability of the materials currently used to make them is limited. "50,000 watts of power, and it's pushin' overload"

Not only batteries, energy demand will be skirocketing too... they will need to be charged somewhere, somehow, somewhen

Digital transformation is table stakes for being in business at all—but a new report from Microsoft illustrates how “tech intensity” takes things to another level. Code harder not faster?

Kind of ironic to see what they say... and then suffer what they actually do

The most impactful lesson I've learned in 2019 has to be this quote - "Software Is About Developing Knowledge More Than Writing Code" by Li Hongyi "Developing knowledge" still shouldn't lead to bugs however

Those who can, do. Those who can't write articles about how programming is everything but actually programming.

I didn't read the article so I can't tell about it.
But I do agree with the content of the subject of Kent's message. I have always said, the best thing I learned in college, has nothing to do with the knowledge acquired. I am happy / proud that I learned how to learn by myself.
So yes, developing knowledge is a big plus
But again... I didn't (and probably won't) read the article, so I blindly trust what you say about it

The Visual Studio Code development team placed a Santa hat on the settings gear icon in the IDE as has been done in the past for the holiday season, but this year someone objected. Happy holidays

Threat actors breaching company networks are deploying a cornucopia of malware over the remote desktop protocol (RDP), without leaving a trace on target hosts. They're still technically *someone's* remote desktops, right?

Flickr is still losing money and needs more people to sign up to its Pro tier to have a chance of survival. Because nothing says, "trust us with your photos forever" like, "we're almost out of business"
But seriously, they're not Yahoo anymore, so they deserve to live. Right?

Yet another company I though had already gone out of business. I may still have photos there.

Quote: "During a full news conference later in the morning, Bridenstine and Chilton explained that the capsule's clock, which is programmed to govern the spacecraft's activities, somehow misinterpreted the stage of the mission. This error, which engineers refer to as an anomaly with the Mission Elapsed Time, triggered the capsule to over-control its location and burn too much fuel."

It seems that despite Jobs selling the iPad as a lean-back device, he actually wanted something that could be used on the toilet. And this is why we have hand sanitizer fluid

Rule 1 of making people think you're a superior being: Pretend you're above such things as using a toilet.
