Scientists say the unexplained rogue waves and high winds mean we are “missing something really fundamental in our standard models of the Sun.” Maybe if they shone a really bright light on it?
For those in the UK and west coast of the US/Canada, they didn't discover "sunshine".

Oh, that's just ridiculous!
They can give us huge volumes of detail about planets, black holes, and other celestial bodies that are umpty-bazijillion light years away, but they don't know anything about our own Sun?
... Or is it just that, with a celestial body that's so close to us, fact-checking becomes a serious threat to their statements?

.NET Core 2.2 was released on December 4, 2018. As a non-LTS (“Current”) release, it is supported for three months after the next release. The good ones die so young

Microsoft developer technologies fared well in Upwork's list of the top 100 in-demand skills as compiled by the freelancer-focused careers company. Must have 20 years experience with .NET Core using Typescript
Just be sure to pick the right version of .NET Core (see next)
The list though. Makes no sense. I do like the idea of recruiting for Technical Recruiter. Very tautological. And I've no clue why "Landing Pages" is so high.

MIT researchers say they’ve taught test subjects how to manipulate their own alpha brain waves, thereby improving attention at a given task. The key: give the participants live feedback of their brain activity. Does it involve a buffer overflow?
I could have sworn I've seen videos of people doing this back in the 90s, if not earlier.

I'm sorry, does this come with a large book full of platitudes, a 10 day retreat/course/life exercise, CD of more platitudes, and associated cookbook? If not, I'm out

A hallmark of this period of creation that mirrors today is a culture of sharing, and we see that in both times, innovators benefited from spaces and mediums to explore, share, and build upon each other. Does this mean I have to start wearing trunk hose?
I was going to go with 'ruff', but apparently they were later than the renaissance (the really egregious ones anyway)

Earlier this week EFF released Certbot 1.0, the latest version of our free, open source tool that helps websites encrypt their traffic. Because you deserve a padlock today

Microsoft has decided to no longer offer the Windows 10 Notepad through the Microsoft Store, which will most likely cause future updates to become available at a slower pace. The guy that downloaded it will be very disappointed

What, didn't everyone enthusiastically adore the new icons and colour scheme that they added to notepad as one of their figurehead improvements in a recent winio update?
There are obviously too many Luddites using computers, these days.

Microsoft used a database of three billion publicly leaked credentials to identify users who reused passwords. Silly people. Everyone knows you're supposed to increment the number at the end first

I would have thought that taking possession of what you know to be illegally-obtained data is in itself a criminal offence.
Actually, I don't have to "would have thought" it -- taking possession of anything that you know to be illegally-obtained is a criminal offence.

I'm normally only accidentally happy anyway

As cellphones got smarter, they also became marginally more dangerous to the clumsy, easily distracted humans holding them, according to new research. D'oh!

Yes, but does this include the people who were hit over the heads by the people who stole their phones?
