Domain experts called corp.com dangerous because years of testing showed whoever wields it would have access to an unending stream of passwords, email and other sensitive data from hundreds of thousands of Microsoft Windows PCs at major companies around the globe. "You break it, you buy it"

I don't think I've ever seen the word "cr@p" typoed so many times in one place.

And he has been nice just waiting for M$ to come and buy him the domain, without having used any of the data he has been receiving over the years?
Yeah, right...

Defamatory accusations aside, I rather suspect that the guy who owned the domain was in fact honest. He could have and probably would have sold to other interested parties had he not been.

So many products promise to be machine learning or AI when they are just an impressive algorithm. But smart is not the same as intelligent when it comes to the minds of machines. Can you spot the difference? I'm guessing it's a longer list than the ones that are

A spin-off of “Man about the house” that sounds like “Keeping up appearances”? Sounds like the Beeb has been using madlibs to select shows, not an AI.
How did that show last five seasons?

I think it got away with it by being harmless. No complaints? No reason to axe it.

The Bannatyne Manuscript is an anthology of some 400 medieval Scottish poems. Added as it's appropriate language for developer conversations
Should I be surprised it was a Scotsman? I suppose Malcolm Tucker came by it honestly.
EDIT: further random thought
Does this need to go on the list of "important stuff invented during a plague quarantine", like "Newton inventing calculus" and "Shakespeare writing King Lear"?

What if we write .NET runtime as… .NET application? .NETception!
I think this is yet another sign that the "stay at home" stuff has gone on long enough.

Over 350,000 of all Microsoft Exchange servers currently exposed on the Internet haven't yet been patched against the CVE-2020-0688 post-auth remote code execution vulnerability affecting all supported Microsoft Exchange Server versions. Too many sysadmins emailing it in?

Microsoft made a surprising move last year when it decided to rebuild its browser based on Chromium, the same foundation as Google Chrome. Now, that move has paid off big as Microsoft’s new Edge is now the second-most popular desktop browser. Imitation is the sincerest form of marketing

A smart toilet capable of detecting early warning signs of cancer and other serious diseases has been developed by scientists in the US. I'm not going to touch this one (but of course there's AI involved)
{redacted} due to a small, but likely vocal group who would complain about a medical term in the title. And I want to keep my job here.
I don't think I want to know who-or how they-ascertained that every "snowflake" is unique.
