In the context of the software industry, "work-life balance" is an oxymoron.
«While I complain of being able to see only a shadow of the past, I may be insensitive to reality as it is now, since I'm not at a stage of development where I'm capable of seeing it. A few hundred years later another traveler despairing as myself, may mourn the disappearance of what I may have seen, but failed to see.» Claude Levi-Strauss (Tristes Tropiques, 1955)

"The criminals behind Bad Rabbit are tricking people into infecting themselves, by disguising the malware as an Adobe Flash installer and planting it on legitimate websites that have been compromised" The article contains a link that explains some "vaccination" that can prevent infection. Might cause some interesting discussions in the office as you explain the need to vaccinate the computers to prevent bad rabbits.

"But many pointed out that those same rights aren't afforded to many humans in the country.
The robot, named Sophia, was confirmed as a Saudi citizen during a business event in Riyadh, according to an official Saudi press release." That answers what happens to humans once the robots come for our jobs 
--edit;
The unveiling of Sophia can be seen here[^].

Assembly might have taken more than one day, but it is only presented once it is finished. I'd vote to call it an unveiling-day

I think this citizenship was out of necessity. The robot can't go anywhere because it can't make it passed the metal detector at the airport.
AI robots are such a good idea, no criminal will ever think to hack into it and make it commit crimes, turn on its owner or ever do anything bad. Its all lollipops and beach lounging from here on out.

At most airports you can go around. More a publicity-stunt then necessity; giving rights to a toaster, while most humans there have less rights than that toaster now has.

A successful IT career requires constant learning and proving knowledge through IT certifications. I didn't bother reading it, maybe you will
"For me, one of the most important differentiators are industry certifications."
Yeah. A differentiator. That's a good term for them.

Low-cost cloud backup and storage company Backblaze has published its latest set of hard disk reliability numbers for the second quarter of 2017. I don't think hard drives are that reliable if you keep them in the bathtub

IMO, wrong forum (Lounge would be better)
Things get a lot more complicated when implementing them in actual code, but that’s the base concept.
But given the audience, a statement like that is just pathetic. Come on. Even the Reed–Solomon error correction - Wikipedia page has better information.

Discussions about "the best programming language or technology" are common in software development, but also arguably pointless. "I'd rather be a hammer than a nail"

Yes, I would....

I maintain that the number one consideration by magnitudes is: availability and cost of replacement engineers.

Rico is the largest such database anywhere, with 72,219 user interfaces (or UIs) from 9,772 Android apps across 27 Google Play categories, she says. It contains visual, textual, structural, and interactive design properties of each of those UIs, and can be searched by all three. "It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works."

Can good design be cost-effective
Jeez, that's even a question?

It would be convenient, incase I looked in my spam folder.

Code reviews are a big part of writing software, especially when working within a team. It is important to have an agreed-upon etiquette for reviewing code within a team. Always lift the pinkie when expressing how awful the code is

If the code really sucks clap your hands ( To the tune of: If you're happy and you know it clap your hands)
