Intel has delayed the rollout of its 7-nanometer CPUs by six months and is instead shifting focus to 10nm-based products. I bet they're going to blame it on a pandemic or some other lame excuse

A report released this week reveals good news and bad news concerning the current global state of security on the Internet. Wait - there are problems with web security?

What if we took the lessons of the semantic web and applied them to source code? "My thoughts are whirled like a potter's wheel"
Posting mostly as I'm curious what others think of the (rather long) proposal. Isn't it somewhat like what Eiffel attempted?
|

Sounds like a good way to bring IntelliSense to its knees. But then again, I'm not sure I entirely understand his proposal because having URLs for everything seems kind of crazy. Everyone tends to reinvent the wheel, so which of the 68,596+ URLs do you choose from? And versioning?

If you've ever looks at the semantic web specs, (even the acronym OWL has the words of the acronym reversed), you would run away in horror. Applying this to source code? OMG. No elephanting way.

Although the release for the latest version arrives much sooner on a relative scale in comparison to 18.5 being pushed out after 18.4, the changelog this time around is a significantly shorter one as well. So if you're a SQL user, set aside a day or two for the install

University says the degree will build a quantum workforce for Australia. Is the diploma worth it or not? Yes (at least until the waveform collapses)

Is that better or worse than a "basket weaving studies" degree?

Bad bots roam free in a parallel version of Facebook You'd think they have enough examples already running on the site

We’ve developed TransCoder, an entirely self-supervised neural transcompiler system that can make code migration far easier and more efficient. "Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."
I guess they'd have no problem running it on the Facebook codebase and replacing the production?

even 90% (never mind 75 or 69%) is basically useless since it'll be so errorloaded that you still need skilled devs to go over every single line of output in detail.
99% is probably the minimum I'd consider using; at that point it's probably no worse than a typical crappily written codebase.
Slightly lower levels I consider highly dangerous. Too many errors to be minimally useable as is, too few to prevent the reviewers from getting bored out of their skulls and slacking off.
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?

Oh good.
Javascript:
let missilesAreFlying = GetLatestRadar().Missiles.Length > 0;
if (missilesAreFlying) {
LaunchOurMissiles();
}
C#:
var missilesAreFlying = GetLatestRadar().Any(r=>Missile);
if (!missilesAreFlying)
{
LaunchOurMissiles();
}
Oops.

Ongoing attack hitting unsecured data leaves the word “meow” as its calling card. The hack so good - cats ask for it by name

That's hardly a hack; call it the internet immune system - evolution says the weak must die, and unsecured fits that bill. If you got it, you deserved it. Learn to use a lubber.
