According to a trusted source, Microsoft will release the “Threshold 2” (TH2) release of Windows 10 in November as the Windows 10 Fall Update. And unlike the post-RTM Windows Insider builds we’ve been getting, the Fall Update will ship as a cumulative update, not as a full build. For those waiting for SP1
Edit: fixed my fumble-paste

Quote: including an improved Media Creation Tool, new locales and other new features for Cortana, and various Edge improvements (but not add-ons, sorry)
I do not play with media...do not like when my computer talks to me too much...and a browser without extensions not really goes beyond limits...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

You can choose which browser to use! Chrome works great in Win10 You can also still run IE in Win10 as well.
|

Another proof that W10 is still in beta and edge in alpha
Business want something stable, not experimental.

If you're a Linux or open source developer, Microsoft wants to work with you, and maybe even hire you. "Dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!"

Perhaps the complete news must "If you know Linux and don't know Microsoft".

Since last year, when it unveiled Fabric, Twitter is giving away an embarrassment of riches to developers, from its free Crashlytics error-reporting and analytics suite; to Digits, a login service which now offers both phone and email options; to Mopub, a mobile-friendly advertising network which helps app developers make money. Code Rule #42: All code lines must be 140 characters or less

The service lets you watch videos ad-free among other premium features, and it will eventually fund the production of premium, members-only video content. For only pennies a day, you can see videos anyone else can see for free

I want two features, 1. If child content is playing don't show horror movie commercials.
2. Still run movies when I shut down the screen on my phone.
No2. is fixed by free apps atleast

I wonder how many people will find their special content with their "RedTube" website and never come back? Not sure this is the greatest name...

Am I the only person who thinks this branding is too close to the name of one of the *ahem*adult*ahem* tube sites run by a different company?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

$9.99?
While you can simply update your host-file for free and enjoy the same?
How is that a "service"? Where is the added value? That is not a product, it is a rip off.

On October 17th, F# Gotham gathered experts who presented different aspects of the language and tooling such as asynchronous programming, computation expressions, optimization, FParsec and Xamarin.Forms. To one day be known as G-flat
|
|
|
|
|
I wasted spent time to learn F# some 5 years ago and couldn't find a single opportunity to use it in practice. Microsoft should just pull the plug and remove it from Visual Studio, IMHO.

“Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads,” Dr. Emmett Brown famously said in the hit movie “Back to the Future.” Doc was wrong about that, though. Today you still need roads, but perhaps what we don’t need are drivers.
Today is Back to the Future Day, the day on which Marty McFly and Doc Brown travel to the future in the sequel to the original film. To honor the movie and the date, Stanford engineers have built a self-driving, electric, drifting DeLorean. In honor of Oct 21, 2015. Drivers? Where we're going we don't need drivers.

In what at first glance seems an unlikely pairing, Microsoft is bringing Google's open-source Go language into its Azure cloud. Two things I'm unlikely to use - in one convenient location
|
|
|
|

Now Azure will Go much better, I'm sure...

I'm hearing a lot of good things about the Go language with a huge growth in popularity recently. It must be doing something right.
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

It's mostly popular with people that have worked with dynamic languages such as Python but want better performance. Easy to learn and has support from Google, but in general it is a pretty backward language that encourages copy-paste code reuse.
