Microsoft to send IE upgrade nag notices to Windows 7 PCs in January. Because a security patch is definitely the right place to add a reminder notice

Can it recognize that I didn't open IE for some 3 years now?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Depending on your goals, the new SHA-2 cert may not be in your best interests. I'm certifiable, does that count?

It's necessary, but not sufficient.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

You need to be aware of the trend in releasing open source projects, and the reality of open source today: most open source projects are crap, and you need to be careful which ones you use. It totally clashes with the feng shui for my project

The new .NET framework is modern, lean, modular and open source. Write once, run everywhere! No one else has thought of this before! Hurrah!

Yeah, but it might actually work this time...

The latest build of Windows 10 does not introduce a lot of new features, but it brings some pretty sweet improvements. Those ignoring Windows 10 can look forward to ignoring a new version soon

At some point in the last few months MS rendered my internet connection invisible, making it impossible for any further upgrade until I spend some time rebuilding. When I hear they have a stable build I will get the connection debugged.

A couple years ago Sam told me a story about a different programmer who never learned C, and I liked it so much that right on the spot I asked his permission to repeat it. Come for the headline, stay for the punchline
Honestly, wouldn't you use this joke as well if you could?

Zombie infections: epidemiology, treatment, and prevention
BMJ 2015; 351 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/bmj.h6423 (Published 14 December 2015)

"Some experts have argued that the rise in zombie infections is due to increased surveillance.8 Brooks thinks otherwise, citing documentation of zombie outbreaks from antiquity to modern day as evidence of a true rise in incidents. He notes: "At this rate, attacks will only increase, culminating in one of two possibilities. The first is that world governments will have to acknowledge, both privately and publicly, the existence of the living dead, creating special organizations to deal with the threat. In this scenario, zombies will become an accepted part of daily life—marginalized, easily contained, perhaps even vaccinated against. A second, more ominous scenario would result in an all-out war between the living and the dead." "All-out war between the living and the dead" ... oh yeah, that's what I see in the mirror.

An individual energy generation syste has been developed that works by combining the force we apply when our feet touch the ground with urine-powered fuel cells, allowing engineers to generate enough electricity to send radio signals to a receiver. Brings new meaning to the term, "energy leak"

Microsoft has unpublished temporarily the latest Windows 10 Mobile build from its servers while it works to fix installation problems. If only they knew the hardware manufacturer...

I think Microsoft has now Scrum build for its release products: Development and tests are done WITH the customer.
Press F1 for help or google it.
