Password quality meters that give a thumbs up to "Pa$$w0rd!" - aka every one I've seen and sworn at - are an anti-feature and should count as a fail not a pass.
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?

Playing first-person shooter video games causes some users to lose grey matter in a part of their brain associated with the memory of past events and experiences, a new study by two Montreal researchers concludes. And really bad for the life of your W-A-S-D keys.

A sound IT architecture keeps your company’s technology strategy humming. From kludges to manual re-keying to redundant apps, these are the telltale indicators of an IT environment on the brink of collapse. Hurrah! I did catch them all!

More than one "source of truth" (data store) is an absolute killer in my opinion.

Yes, and now they think it's so easy that they don't need you for it.
I need a perfect, to the point answer as I am not aware of this.

Google is launching a new initiative to help reduce annoying advertisements online. All of them?
I'd really just like to see Taboola and OutBrain disappear from the known universe.

Quote: "Instead of pop-ups, publishers can use less disruptive alternatives like full-screen inline ads", Spencer suggests.
Wait what?!!!! Full screen overlays are worse than popups; in being harder for my blocker to kill, in being harder to manually clean up if they leak through, and in interrupting what I do instead of leaving a mess to get rid of later.
If this is typical of the advise Google's giving I see my blocker getting worked even harder in the future.

Today we are announcing the release of the PowerShell Module Browser, an easy, predictable way to search all Microsoft PowerShell modules and cmdlets. Great news for that guy that likes PowerShell
|
|
|
|

1. Seems that "all Microsoft PowerShell modules and cmdlets" is missing some, um, Microsoft modules and cmdlets. For example Exchange and Active Directory.
2. Yet another tool that offers the facility to find a command that you already know the name of. Doesn't particularly help find commands by subject area.

Not only makes me excited about the platforms already support this, but also tells what Microsoft thinks about UWP, Windows Phone and Silverlight...

Well Silverblight is dead, Windows Phone is dead too (the win10 version is merely pining for the fjords, but AFAIK runs UWP). I'm curious what the story with UWP is, but wouldn't be surprised if it comes down to being frozen between OS updates.
