As part of one of YouTube’s latest experiments, the video-sharing platform looks to expand beyond the “Products in this Video” feature that auto-detects specific items and will be able to generate related video links to anything featured. That explains why YouTube is always trying to sell me cats

A feature that's so desperately needed. Watch a ton of cat videos, so each one thinks you need more cats. I wonder what will happen when p0rn sites adopt the technology.

I would like to...
have just a 10% of the spare time that some people have... really

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

With the release of the latest Windows 10 preview 'Dev' build, Microsoft is offering a glimpse at some of the new features and changes they are developing. Not counting the new icons
Which we will all love, of course.

Quote: A look at upcoming Windows 10 features you will love, or maybe hate Maybe? That was rethorical... wasn't it?
EDIT:
- Expanded mode in Explorer: Well... for some fat fingers in a surface... can be an improvement. (Not looking at anyone in particuler, eh? OG? )
- Virtual desktops personalization: Not using them much, but I can imagine to be a real improvement, since I do use different backgrounds in the VMs for the same reason.
- Max- and minimize animations: Are you kidding me? this is the same as the animated caret in newer Versions of MS Office... what the ? it brings no functionality but making things slower and even more annoying.
- Additions to "Inbox Apps" (a.k.a. unasked bloatware): I suppose candy crush was feeling a bit lonely

(As in, logically, compact mode requires old-style menus. But MS isn't logical.)

AMD and Intel recently started changing how the x86 chip architecture will handle exceptions. Linus Torvalds, in turn, gave his take on their new approach for forthcoming generations of CPUs. We interrupt this newsletter for exceptional news

Scientists are celebrating the long-sought discovery of the odderon, a strange phenomenon that appears only rarely when protons collide at high energies, such as inside particle accelerators. Eveneron still to be found
No, of course they wouldn't name a particle that. It's a "pomeron". Because the person that gave it that name was a fan of little yappy dogs?

I firstly read it as "oberon" and I was like... really? Where is Will Smith[^] when we need him?

A survey by Twilio reveals that IT leaders realize the value of developers, yet still aren't giving them a voice in strategic decision making. If we listen to them, we can't blame them later when things go badly

The problem is not that we don't have voice... the problem is that sound can not propagate in the void...

There are now N+1 competing standards.
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?
