To help with the complexity of the aspects we need to evaluate, we are increasing our investments in machine learning (ML) technologies. Machine learning helps us detect potential issues more quickly and helps us decide the best time to update each PC once a new version of Windows is available. That explains so much

The researchers found that when people were 90-99% confident they had correctly identified an email as either phishing or legitimate, they only identified phishing emails correctly about 56% of the time. Dunning, meet Kruger. Kruger, meet Dunning.

New hard-to-detect malware is in active development and is currently making its way around thousands of computers across Europe and US, according to Microsoft and Cisco Talos. Who will defend the Defender?

When discussing C with C++ programmers I often notice a somewhat outdated view of C, usually a familiarity with a C dialect that lies somewhere between C89 and C99, because that’s essentially the “subset of C that’s supported by C++”. Your grandpa's C ain't your grandpa's C
"Also to be clear, the ‘Modern C’ I’m talking about here is not modern at all, but already two decades old."

While working on our Spectrum server, we noticed something weird: the TCP sockets which we thought should have been closed were lingering around. We realized we don't really understand when TCP sockets are supposed to time out! Hello, would you like to hear a TCP joke?

- Hello, I would like to hear a TCP joke
- Are you ready to receive the TCP joke?
- Yes, send the tcp joke
- Here I send the tcp joke

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
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

During last year’s Birthday Week we announced preliminary support for QUIC and HTTP/3 (or “HTTP over QUIC” as it was known back then), the new standard for the web, enabling faster, more reliable, and more secure connections to web endpoints like websites and APIs. We also let our customers join a waiting list to try QUIC and HTTP/3 as soon as they became available. They say the third one in a trilogy is always the worst, but not this time.

On Monday night, Variety reported that film editors around Los Angeles who had Avid Media Composer software installed were suddenly finding that their Macs were unable to reboot. The publication speculated that malware may have been the cause. On Wednesday, Google disclosed the real cause—a Chrome browser update. Firefox FTW!

It can't be that much of an "emergency" if they're not pushing it out via Windows Update. How many end-users are going to be able to navigate through the various articles to get to the instructions on how to manually download and apply the patch?
