A denial of service flaw found in the way recent Linux kernels handle TCP networking can be exploited by remote attackers to trigger a kernel panic in vulnerable systems. Netflix and patch

Remind me to think twice about working for netflix. Any company that follows google's example is probably best avoided.

Facebook today said that its in-development global cryptocurrency, called Libra, will launch next year alongside the underlying blockchain-based network that will support it. Today you will meet a tall stranger bearing fake money. He will sell your private information to others.

I wonder how much they'll charge subscribers for telling them how many coins everyone has, alongside their purchasing history.

Not having access to Facebook because you have the wrong opinions is so last year. Not being able to buy anything because you have the wrong opinions is where it's at.

I'm waiting for the Google currency. I wonder how many ads you will have to watch before making a transaction.

Samsung has advised owners of its latest TVs to run regular virus scans. Remember when the worst thing about your TV was sitting too close?

I have a Sony Android-based TV. I suppose it needs to be virus checked as well, but since there's no storage, and the OS is most likely built into a ROM or something, how do you even do a virus check?

Do the malware checkers block soaps?
If so, I'm buying a Samsung TV.

Now there's an idea for malware - reading the "favorite channels" list, and allowing the victim to play anything but his/her favorites.

Official development targets for Java 13 include improvements to garbage collection, application class-data sharing, and text blocks Surely there's someone excited about this?
And yes, I surely called you Shirley.

Hold on!
There's a version higher than Java 8?
Why have they bothered?

They're never going to succede with java unless they introduce new icons. They could really take a clue from Micrsoft in that regard.

Trained on tens of thousands of program examples, SketchAdapt learns how to compose short, high-level programs, while letting a second set of algorithms find the right sub-programs to fill in the details. They've automated copy/paste?

Egg-f***ing-sackerly.
Another article I'm not going to bother to read, because where did the code examples come from, and how were they trimmed and massaged to get results that look "good"?
It will likely be a lot of years before something like this is done seriously and professionally.

If they're trained on samples generated by humans, all we're going to end up with is with something like Windows.
