On Wednesday, NASA released the first-ever recording of a laser firing on Mars. Not as thrilling as it sounds
And not a shark to be heard.

Quote: Today I am thrilled to introduce our second Enhance feature: Super Resolution. The term “Super Resolution” refers to the process of improving the quality of a photo by boosting its apparent resolution. Enlarging a photo often produces blurry details, but Super Resolution has an ace up its sleeve — an advanced machine learning model trained on millions of photos. Backed by this vast training set, Super Resolution can intelligently enlarge photos while maintaining clean edges and preserving important details. [^]
Is there any new software/algorithm that has not been trained with machine learning on a galactic size sample set ?
Could be worse: they could have named it "turbo resolution."

We’ve made many great improvements to C++ IntelliSense over the course of the Visual Studio 2019 release. Maybe this will get them off of vi?
Or to upgrade from VS 2013?

They will need to pry vi(m) from my cold, dead hands.
But in their defense, there is always VsVim[^]

Latest Flexera survey finds slow adoption of cloud cost management strategies. In an era of multi-cloud, these means a lot to keep track. And much of the rest is tracked and wasted.
I know, I know - efficiencies and happiness all around. Cloud is the way to joy, or something.

Up to one-third of cloud computing spending is not tracked and wasted Which means... 2/3 of the whole is still being tracked and wasted. And that is still a damned huge lot.

No worry... they are probably sorry and have promised not to do it again...
Seriously... everyone can have errors, but if something like this comes due to idiocy (and it looks like so), companies should held accountant / face real consequences

Ottens was a talented and influential engineer at Philips, where he also helped develop consumer compact discs. Did they try turning him over to play the other side? (RIP)

That was my alternate, but I didn't think the kids would get it (of course, they probably didn't get the flip over part either)

The authors assert that by measuring developer productivity using a multidimensional framework, SPACE, we can more accurately measure productivity and make better decisions, and capture insight into the many layers of organizational, team and developer productivity. Give your developers SPACE
I hear it's the final frontier

My last manager didn't believe in measuring, but maximizing. He'd bring us coffee at our desks.
Of course he measured; in stuff achieved.
