Between this, the price tracking, and the difficulty of changing, I'm surprised they haven't added a 'feature' to let you know when your favorite (ahem) 'actress' (or 'actor') has a new video out. Anything to keep you glued to their screen.
And yes, the 'ahem' is code for another four letter word.
Now they'll read this and give Kent another news item in the next few weeks.

Yes, but that wouldn't be progressive enough per the way MS is doing things. I imagine that just visiting a page would be enough for Edge to keep track of that 'actor' for you in the future, even if you were in private mode. "Think of the convenience for our users! They'll love it!" is the brain-dead thought going through some president's mind...

The cloud revolution means big changes ahead for jobs and more. And don't expect the rate of change to slow. Or what 'won' means, apparently

Nonsense. The centralized versus distributed yo-yo has gone from mainframes to workstations to servers to desktops and now to the cloud, which is enjoying its 15 years of fame. It will end when techno-marketers convince CIOs that they now need a distributed intranet, perhaps to protect stuff in the cloud from getting hacked.

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?

Is it really lightweight, or "JetBrains lightweight"?

Forget about the toasters, for there is a new frontier in Doom trivia: training up rodents to wander its mazes and blow away imps. Oh sure, teach them how to run mazes and kill people. What could go wrong?

The analyst firm, IDC, has said that classical computing will run out of steam over the next decade as quantum computing comes to the fore. Does this mean we're entering the romantic period of computing?

Someone with more brains says that databases will still run on classical computers and keep the world running long after IDC runs out of money.
