Yeah. Having used android/ios emulators I'm well aware of how bad the mouse instead of a touch screen experience can be.
The insult to injury part is that the biggest problem I've had with Android Emulators was that they were always slow; so even a touchscreen laptop was of minimal value. The iOS emulator is really fast; but Apple's designers apparently hate greasy fingerprints on their glossy laptop screens so they only offer non-touch laptops.
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?

It's funny but I suddenly realised that I trust a random Windows download more than I trust a random Android download.
What has the world come to.

Researchers have long suspected a connection between information and the physical universe, with various paradoxes and thought experiments used to explore how or why information could be encoded in physical matter. 640KB ought to be enough for everything

And how much of that information is cat videos?

Another inaccurate title. What a shocker!
Quote: In AIP Advances, a University of Portsmouth researcher attempts to shed light on exactly how much of this information is out there
Quote: To produce the estimate, the author used Shannon's information theory to quantify the amount of information encoded in each elementary particle in the observable universe as 1.509 bits of information. Yeah, 1.509 bits is enough info to let a particle know how to interact with each and every other type of particle. Did they also reach plaid sarcasm level? Trolling Phys.org? Idiots...

Software Ate The World And Now Has Indigestion | ZeroHedge[^]
The examples--of AI overseeing social media posts or enabling self-driving cars--are on the leading edge, so their failures are unsurprising. But the point that so much software depends on the internet, GPS, and power grid is a valid one.
I suspect that the vast, unseen army of what he calls "ghost workers" mostly staff call centers, dealing with issues that should be resolvable through websites alone, but which aren't because of poor specifications and implementations.

Businesses must be able to innovate quickly, analyst firm claims I read that as "compostability", and was glad for covering myself in old leaves
"Innovate quickly to succeed". Hmmm. So that's why Gartner makes the big bucks. They are so wise!

Gartner corners the market on snarking itself.

Hmpf. If he said something in the line of "composition over inheritance" (i.e. allowing a business to replace some department like management by e.g. outsourcing), that would actually be a good idea.
But "artificial intelligence", "distributed cloud", ... - what a blah blah.
Oh sanctissimi Wilhelmus, Theodorus, et Fredericus!
