Are you talking about the ship, or John's ex?

The Titanic could move on its own, without being tempted by food, so no, not my ex... this time.

Microsoft updates its plans for Adobe Flash on the new Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser. In lieu of flowers, send celebrations
It's almost like Flash support is part of some shared component...

Quote: Colleen Williams, senior program manager for Microsoft Edge, said: We ain' a'gonna do nuthin'. If'n it don' done work in chrominum, it won' work in the browser we don' make neither.
She then added: Y'all.

It will if you consider your data to be sponge-worthy.

It’s hard to deny that Microsoft is letting its tablet mode die on the vine. It works fine as a tablet, as long as you also have a keyboard
|
|
|
|
|
But their desktop UI will remain 87% tablet/phone UI, undoubtedly.
Or they could 'fess up fully, and get rid of all the baby blocks, ribbons, title-bar-less windows, button-less buttons, and other cr@p that they introduced solely and only to emulate the tablet/phone interfaces of other companies' tablets and phones -- and all of which have been shown, time and time again, to cause major productivity hits and a huge loss of focus.

Why then, do we read of agile’s death? Three reasons: phony ads, misunderstanding ordinary movement of ideas through society, and looking at the wrong curves. Agile needs braaaaaaaaains

Heart of agile?
Heart of dorkness, more like.

Lock-in isn't a simple true-or-false matter: avoiding being locked into one aspect often locks you into another. Get locked and loaded
I'll get locked later.

Even if you only spend 30 minutes a day on your project, it still counts because you learned something Maybe also find a site where you can share and discuss your personal projects?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

In yet another victory for the machines this week, Microsoft detailed an AI system — Super Phoenix, or Suphx for short — capable of besting champions at Mahjong. Did it also learn how to play while drinking heavily?
Or maybe it's just the people I know that play it.

... Because what every gamer wants is a game that will beat them every time, without fail.
I live in hope that ms will one day relearn how to do useful things.

A new report shows that businesses continue to use older operating systems such as Windows 7, and even Windows Vista, even though they are no longer supported and less secure compared to Windows 10. If you're happy and you know it, keep using Weven
It's the people still using Vista that I feel for.
I suspect these will be "updated" when the hardware gets replaced.
