I guess this isn't a Soapbox replacement, so I'll refrain from stating what it shows me.

That is until something breaks; I doubt that there's modern graphics-card vendors that still support those systems.

With the transformation to cloud native applications, microservice architectures have become the standard for building cloud native applications, and it is predicted that by 2022, 90% of new apps will feature microservice architectures. Are you well-dressed enough to try it?

IT leaders agree shadow IT serves as a force of innovation and productivity. End-users simply need more guidance and support. Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of the network?

Which edge you ask? Well, this one;
ZDNet wrote: "ungoverned and unapproved solutions from file hosting services to personal smartphones on the corporate network that introduce serious security blind spots for management the IT department." More than three in four respondents (77 percent) agree that by 2025, shadow IT will become a bigger issue at their companies
This is to be solved with a few security-policies, to be defined by management. That'll work well

Following 25 weeks of development, Canonical today released Ubuntu 19.10. Highlights include new edge capabilities for Kubernetes, an integrated AI developer experience, and the fastest GNOME desktop performance yet. Just in case you need a little Eoan Ermine in your life

Microsoft’s second major Windows 10 Update of 2019, codenamed as 19H2, is now officially known as Windows 10 November 2019 Update. As the name suggests, the new Windows 10 update will be rolled out to the public in November, but we didn’t know as to when the rollout will begin in November, until now. In case you want to schedule some Windows Update downtime
Or downtime in general (although it seemed to be a pretty painless upgrade for me)

Or needed some time to download the latest version of Ubuntu so you can have it "just in case" the Windows update otherwise bricks your system...

A pair of mathematicians from Australia and France have devised an alternative way to multiply numbers together, while solving an algorithmic puzzle that has perplexed some of the greatest math minds for almost half a century. No more carrying the one?

Although they aren’t widely used now, groups once served as a watering hole for discussion on wonderfully niche interests, such as TV show fan communities and extremely geeky computing topics — almost like Reddit does now. Disk space is expensive?

The side-effect of being innovative is that some rather strange and unphysical ideas sometimes escape from NASA. This probably explains the Helical Drive. "In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!"

A new Windows SDK will not be issued in conjunction with this version of Windows, since this release doesn’t introduce new APIs. That means there’s no need to target Windows 10, version 1909 or modify your project files. Grief
Is there ever another answer?
OK, in this case it sounds surprisingly limited. It hardly even sounds like a Service Pack level of discomfort.
