Microsoft is staffing up an internal Inner Source initiative to bring open-source principles, methodologies and tools for use by development teams inside the company. Then everyone can fork Windows
I was going to go with "Wasn't that the movie with Martin Short?", but even I didn't get that one.

We need to start paying attention to such a huge community!zdnet also wrote: Inner Source tools and methods can be used to develop open and/or closed-source projects and products. So it's like, what, a development team, yeah?
It's such an original idea that I almost farted.
zdnet just wouldn't shut up! Microsoft's 1ES (One Engineering System) group So that's, like, what, a team that make apps that can be used across the whole universe of ms products, yeah?
Some people might describe that as "A pile of dung by any other name"
I'd tend to agree with them.

I’ve been analyzing survey data from IT end users for over 15 years, and responses received from business managers and even CIOs are often drastically different than what actual practitioners say. It's only fair - I have no clue what the CxOs do all day either

|

tl;dr: managers don't have a clue.
Stunningly novel news.

The gravy train, as it always does, is grinding to a halt.
If fb and google had any sense, they'd proactively stop doing evil, but, obviously, that ain't going to happen.

Many developers today feel like they’re building a rocket ship only to launch it into a black hole. They do all this work to create something great, and then never really know if it’s valuable to their customers. I'm guessing they'll have something to sell you to fix your problems
But still, interesting numbers out of the (too small) study

Microsoft once again changes definitions of Windows 10 updates, but it should make life simpler. Did they redefine an update as 'something to avoid'?

They don't need to make it easier to understand... they need to make it configurable and give the user the option to choose what he wants if he wants to.

Obviously, some people still fail to understand it.
An automated update is a process by which Microsoft proves that Microsoft owns your computer.
That's it!

I know that this supposed to be a scare story, but I can only think: "Oh, that's handy!"
Maybe that's because I see how useful something could be, before it's perverted by money-grubbing @rseholes.

There were questions raised when Amazon was promised $1.2 billion in subsidies to bring a new headquarters to New York City, and we’re asking them again today — because The Washington Post reports that Google has been using secret shell companies to nab millions in tax breaks as it expands its data centers and offices across the US. It can't be evil if it's not illegal, right?

I'm past commenting on how these tech giants make a mockery of democracy by stealing the money that is supposed to support it.
We need to see prison sentences handed out. Normal people can be sent down for years for stealing paltry sums, so we need to see a few proportionately-correct decades-long sentences for amazon, google, and fb execs.
It's the only thing that will make them even consider stopping doing evil*.
* Although, if I get that executioner's job, I may be willing to expand their sentences a little.
