Seems to be somewhat more rational than the group-mind of the market...

GitHub Copilot, described as an "AI pair programmer," debuted this year with a splash, amazing developers with its ability to supply chunks of code when a user is typing in Visual Studio Code and even generate whole applications solely through typed commands. Then they came for the other AI and I did nothing, as I was waiting for the AI-AI cage match

Almost 90% of employees would take a pay cut to use the platform they prefer, while 62% of them will choose Apple when they can, Jamf-sponsored survey claims. PC/GEOS or GTEO!

Their survey was done with people working marketing etc., not with people working in tech.

To reduce the amount of using directives boilerplate in .NET C# project templates, namespaces are implicitly included by utilizing the global using feature introduced in C# 10. It's all fun and games until you have the third File object

Rust is often touted as a competitive language to C++, providing memory-safe functionality at compile-time, but without the use of a garbage collector as in other languages like Java or Go, thus enabling runtime determinism, low latency, and high throughput, as in C++. And does it ever sleep?

It's not even the first time this month Beijing's done so, let alone the first time ever, yet word of the reiterated crackdown sent coin prices tumbling, which may have been the ultimate goal. If you enjoy something, do it more than once

It sounds as though the four space tourists on SpaceX’s historic Inspiration4 flight last week had a bit of a smelly mishap. You know it's bad when the...stuff...hits the rocket engine

Quote: had a bit of a smelly mishap.
The solution is simple - put on the space suits, open that fancy 180 degree dome, vent everything into the vacuum of space, repressurize.
And hope that the frozen turds don't collide with something important!

It probably wouldn't get rid of the biggest turd...

Roger-That Houston.
Yep, that's exactly what I said. We've been damaged in a collision in the rearward portion of the ship.
No.. Literally, not figuratively.
Yes. That's what I said - the sh1t has hit the fan.

Inspired by the way trees like maples disperse their seeds using little more than a stiff breeze, researchers developed a range of tiny flying microchips, the smallest one hardly bigger than a grain of sand. It's not COVID, I'm just allergic to surveillance chips
More a glider than a flyer, but at that size they could probably stay in the air for a while.

In related news, scientists in a competing lab build the world's smallest bug-zapper.

The dystopian possibilities are endless.
What's the betting that this has already been done.
I wonder if one could design a device to detect this sort of thing (fruit fly and mosquito disambiguation a prerequisite, of course).

New research reveals that organizations are not choosing the best options for cloud cost optimization and not making use of multi-cloud deployment capabilities. Come to The Cloud, they say. Save a lot of money, they say.
I wonder how much of that is idle resources that they've forgotten to shut down.
|
|
|
|
|
How?
Several months ago, out of curiosity, I tried pricing out a fairly straightforward cloud service. Even after a ridiculous amount of research, I was stumped with half the options.
|
|
|
|
|
And I suspect that's by design.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

It's going to be at least mildly irritating to upgrade an unsupported system. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not updates
|
|
|
|
|
What?
How much struggle used that to be to get rid of auto-updates on previous versions?
And now, I can just prevent them by hardware?
Wow!

No, they're just saying at a random point in the future your system will stop getting patches become a forever pwnable mass of forever day vulnerabilities (vs a supported config where you've got a specified period of guaranteed future security patches).
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?

Microsoft would be insane to withhold security updates, no matter what the excuse.
On recent years' ongoing performance, Microsoft may well have gone corporately insane.
