We often see compiler warnings about pieces of code that have potential problems or poor style. Sometimes they point out code that is actually wrong, so don’t ignore them. Those yellows are just polite reds

JavaCPP provides efficient access to native C++ inside Java, not unlike the way some C/C++ compilers interact with assembly language. Two great tastes that taste a little funky together

Some 53 percent of respondents to the Dice Salary Survey said they were satisfied with their pay in 2015, a slight rise from 52 percent in 2014. I want their salary then.

The thing that irks me most about raises is that after a couple of paychecks at the new rate, it's like nothing has changed.
I think I need a raise about once every month to stay focused.

Researchers from Tel Aviv University and Technion have gone a step further than past efforts, and found a way to steal data from air-gapped machines while their equipment is in another room. Pardon me while I set up an electronics shop next to your laptop...

How is this different from Tempest?
This was demonstrated back in the early 1980's.

Since 2008, vulnerability has left apps and hardware open to remote hijacking. It's only been there since 2008. I'm sure no one is using it.

The cumulative update not only knocks out PCs' default settings, it prevents users from resetting them. By "default", we mean, "don't change these"

Nope - Firefox. And VLC as the default media player.
And it's an upgrade from 8.1, not a clean install.
The defaults haven't changed since I set them when I upgraded.

I updated lastnight, and had a one off change of my pdf reader from foxit to edge when I opened a pdf. It stayed fixed after I changed it back, and nothing else was changed.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

A standard-sized disc can store around 360 terabytes of data, with an estimated lifespan of up to 13.8 billion years even at temperatures of 190°C. I call shenanigans! I don't think they tested it that long.
