If Bill Gates wants to really wants to do something with his money instead of developing toilets for 3rd world countries why doesn't he invest in the educational system in the country that made him rich?
Along with Antimatter and Dark Matter they've discovered the existence of Doesn't Matter which appears to have no effect on the universe whatsoever!

The companies are OK with dual-OS mobile devices, but they aren't happy with the idea of sharing space on a PC. And people said they'd never agree on anything

Inside the remodeled Building 18, the company’s traditional private offices are nowhere to be found. They’ve been replaced by open team rooms, conference rooms, informal common areas and smaller “focus rooms” for intensive coding and private discussions. Desks are on rollers to make it easy to quickly change the layout of a room. Employees say they’re involved in fewer email threads and more face-to-face interaction. "Don't stand, don't stand so, don't stand so close to me"

Two things are going on that are literally driving programmers crazy. Are you a Real Programmer?

Quote: One is something known as the "imposter syndrome." That's when you're pretty sure that all the other coders you work with are smarter, more talented and more skilled than you are. And if you think the other way around - it's normal?

That's Dunning-Kruger[^], and it is pretty common. Especially on Internet fora, assorted TV channels, and pubs.

Quote: Sponsored by HP and organized by HP-owned Zero-Day Initiative, Pwn2Own offered $1.085 million worth of prizes, as security researchers went after security features on Adobe Flash and Reader. The browsers tested by hackers included Apple Safari, Google Chrome, Microsoft Internet Explorer, and Mozilla Firefox.

The call between the two chiefs won't lead to immediate reform, so Zuckerberg also turns to his Facebook page to amplify the volume of his frustration. This is what happens when you don't have Caller ID

Speed reading has long been a skill peddled by supposed experts, and recently a slew of cheap apps claiming to teach the technique have put it back in the spotlight. So, let's take a look at the claims of speed reading and if it's really possible to read 1,200 words a minute. "I read War and Peace in 20 minutes. It was about Russia."

Millennial developers would be wise to learn the key lesson that UNIX taught us long ago: open-source code is nice, but portability of code is critical. "The future will soon be a thing of the past."

Searching for the right image can be tough. After sorting through hundreds of images, you finally find a picture you like but unfortunately it’s low resolution or an odd dimension leaving you to go back to scrolling through the results pages. To take the hassle out of this process we’re introducing a new feature that allows you to match an image in a few simple clicks. "Do you see yonder cloud that's almost in shape of a camel?"

Unless you’ve been living under a rock (or perhaps in a van down by the river) you may have noticed that Node.js is kind of a big deal. Since its introduction in late 2009, Node has steadily grown in popularity and now occupies prime real estate as a (if not *the*) de facto choice of server-side infrastructure for the modern web stack. "All the cool kids are doing it!"

Amazon is making its streaming application, AppStream, available to all interested developers. AppStream was originally introduced four months ago at the company’s AWS reInvent conference, but at the time was only made available to an initial group of developers. Oh boy!

Microsoft originally launched its subscription version of Office back in September 2012, but the company is announcing a new cheaper option for individuals today. "This time, it's personal"

But I don't understand.
I have office. Granted it doesn't have the moniker 365 anywhere but gee, it writes calculates, gets email and I don't have to give anyone anything yearly.
Boggles the mind why anyone would do this.
Office have been mature since 03 and only messed up serious since then anyway.
