Despite the hype, less than 10% of companies deploy artificial intelligence at work, thanks to the low AI adoption rate of smaller firms. Most enterprises are still trying to find the natural kind
Stick a pin in the paradigm shift and see who salutes

AddressSanitizer was designed by Google to improve memory safety in programs by identifying violations. I was surprised it's not for cleaning naughty words out of street names

First adopt chromium in edge,
now adopting add-ins from google in visual studio...
I suppose that with all the manpower busy creating the supermegahyper functionality to insert emojis they need to get the things that work from other places.
I only hope that it doesn't introduce a new level of telemetry in the source codes.

No. It won't. Create just one new level... The boys at Google are professionals...

With Windows 10 Build 20185, Microsoft has added a new panel that will let you insert emoji, GIFs, and even clipboard content. The one Windows feature everyone has been clamoring for - the ability to paste emoji
:eyeroll:
Glad they got all those bug fixes in.

or did you install the preview version and tried to paste it with the new function?

Demand for software developers and cloud jobs starts to grow again. But businesses are looking for a different set of skills. They want more photogenic devs for their Zoom calls?

The Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico is currently out of commission after a thick support cable fell onto the dish, creating a large gash. Or that's what *they* want you to think

All that mess just because of a cable?
What would have happened if they had used a string instead?

The SANS cybersecurity training organization has suffered a data breach after one of their employees fell victim to a phishing attack. "Physician, heal thyself" and all that
I'd say it's more like the quantity and quality of phishing these days seems to catch everyone. But still: pretty embarrassing.

This is the same list as the moved LOVED programming languages...
Basically there's only one list for both: All of them!

Did you ever see or code in RPG? THIS is an abomination!
It's got to be the most primitive language still in use today.
* Historically RPG was columnar in nature, though free-formatting
* was allowed under particular circumstances.
* The purpose of various lines code are determined by a
* letter code in column 6.
* An asterisk (*) in column 7 denotes a comment line
* "F" (file) specs define files and other i/o devices
F ARMstF1 IF E K Disk Rename(ARMST:RARMST)
* "D" (data) specs are used to define variables
D pCusNo S 6p
D pName S 30a
D pAddr1 S 30a
D pAddr2 S 30a
D pCity S 25a
D pState S 2a
D pZip S 10a
* "C" (calculation) specs are used for executable statements
* Parameters are defined using plist and parm opcodes
C *entry plist
C parm pCusNo
C parm pName
C parm pAddr1
C parm pAddr2
C parm pCity
C parm pState
C parm pZip
* The "chain" command is used for random access of a keyed file
C pCusNo chain ARMstF1
* If a record is found, move fields from the file into parameters
C if %found
C eval pName = ARNm01
C eval pAddr1 = ARAd01
C eval pAddr2 = ARAd02
C eval pCity = ARCy01
C eval pState = ARSt01
C eval pZip = ARZp15
C endif
* RPG makes use of switches. One switch "LR" originally stood for "last record"
* LR flags the program and its dataspace as removable from memory
C eval *InLR = *On
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I haven't, and it certainly looks like one.
I've never done any Real (tm) programming in mainframe era languages; COBOL and FORTRAN were singled out just because they're the two most well known and among the absolute earliest compiled langauges.
The closest I've came was porting an ~100-200 line FORTRAN program to C++ as less hassle than going to the school computer lab and running with a FORTRAN plugin for Visual Studio 98. Then at the end of the semester for the same astrophysics class I modified an ~2k line one to replace the 6ish input values that were fixed between each run of the program to hard coded values so I only needed to enter the two parameters of the model I was required to fiddle with in order to get the model to come out with a valid result. (After needing several hundred runs to pin them down, I found myself wishing I'd instead figured out how to automate them farther.)
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?

I'd never seen it, but I'd heard of it. Makes COBOL look like a joy.
