Microsoft restores Web access to SkyDrive and Contacts but admits fixing an issue with Outlook.com is "taking longer than we hoped." "Methinks it is like a weasel."

Well, I'd be wailing if I depended on it. Luckily, there is still Gmail!

Nope. Elephanted. Definitely elephanted.
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?

We always need another JS UI framework. And a couple of CSS ones. And a few for server front-ends. And a dozen of ORMs.

A Microsoft-built YouTube app for Windows phones, shut down by Google in May and reintroduced by Microsoft this week, has been shut down by Google again. A YouTube spokesperson says “Microsoft has not made the browser upgrades necessary to enable a fully-featured YouTube experience, and has instead re-released a YouTube app that violates our Terms of Service.” Maybe if Google would - you know - just write one themselves?

I believe this violates US Antitrust Laws, and from what I heard, there is a Federal investigation into this, with a lot of charges building up.

It definitely looks like they might have a case on their hands. It would definitely be ironic to see Microsoft on the opposite side of one of these trials.

Since last year's first unveiling of the "Brain-like" chips, IBM's now starting to get to a programming language in order to actually "use" them: IBM Looks to Human Brain to Devise New Programming Model[^]
They spoke about a "Fortran" for these "neural" chips. I wonder if that means all programming concepts are out the window then? Seeing as the neural chips are widely different from the usual "von Neumann" architecture, the concepts might also need to be. And starting at "scratch" (so to speak) by building some language equivalent to the 1st "3rd" generation language ever sounds like some indication of much new ideas in the future!
So ...  ... anyone up for making the NeuralLisp a year after they've completed the NueralFortran? You know ... just to repeat history

Fortran. Yummy.
I can't remember the exact syntax but was it a statement like GOTO 10,15,30 N that was the bane of Fortran developer's lives? Bring back column 6. Don't go beyond column 72. Ahhhh, those were the days. 
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Yep, let's hope IBM implements stuff like if-then-else, while, for, etc. structures in this "Fortran" - i.e. not simply a Fortran 1 (IMO worse than ASM). I'd hate to be stuck with conditional goto's. Otherwise someone will HAVE TO invent a Lisp for it, just so we can at least use some decent programming concepts.

I like this:

Actually, there are no limit on how to make money online. But not everybody seems capable to obtain the best results. Most of them are failed because they don't focus on what they're doing, or even don't understand why they're doing this-or-that.
Btw, try to googling keywords such as "FREE Tips to become an Internet Millionaire" (along with "quote-and-quote" marks), you'll found something may help you - because it has works great for me and for some people, and I hope it will works for you too.

I'm very agree with this. Programmer is sometimes another kind of artist.
If an artist is not allow to perform his art, he'll be depressed.
