Did you ever hear the word "compiler magic" or "syntactic sugar"? Probably yes and therefore we want to dissect what this "magic" really is! Get down, make code

By one unique metric, we could approach technological singularity by the end of this decade, if not sooner. +/- never
Basing it on "the ability of an AI to translate text" would be enough to make a human translator giggle. Or, per Google Translate (after a few cycles): "One based on “YI text translation ability” is enough to make a person cry."

The EU’s proposed Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), which aims to “bolster cybersecurity rules to ensure more secure hardware and software products,” could have severe unintended consequences for open source software, according to leaders in the open source community. A government proposing legislation with unforeseen side-effects? Never happens!

I have a two word example for the open source advocates: Equifax Breach
This breach occurred because Equifax had no clue to the amount of non-secure open source in their systems, nor did they have the tools needed to ensure they knew what components had been updated for security. This isn't an unsolvable problem, but it is one that needs to be solved. If it takes EU legislation to force the open source community to solve it then so be it.

In my utopian world, people would just behave ethically and none of this would ever be a concern. I doubt such an alternate universe exists in all the infinite alternate universes. Not to mention, the phrase "all the infinite universes" is a non-sequitur. How can something infinite be represented with the world "all"?

Microsoft has offered a workaround of sorts for Windows 10 and 11 users who've noticed their Start menu is suddenly unresponsive and that some applications won't open or work correctly. Play a different Rolling Stones song?
I thought I had read a few people here had this problem

Microsoft is working on a reimagining of the Edge web browser, codenamed "Phoenix," that is designed to better differentiate Microsoft Edge from the rest of the browser competition with a fresh new UI that's consistent with Windows 11, unique productivity features and deeper integration with Windows. They do know that the phoenix dies in fire first, right?
"One such feature is the updated UI with rounded tabs and other elements designed to make the browser look more like a native Windows 11 app. " <-- of course

And it will probably still not allow the bookmarks button to be put to the left of the address bar.

We need to be more careful in what messaging we sent them.
How many times have we said that MS Browsers need to die in a fire.
They're just listening to customer feedback.
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?
