Developers and DevOps teams might feel like their application development pipeline is hopelessly outdated if they aren’t using Kubernetes. If you have to ask, odds are you know the answer already

Checked C adds static and dynamic checking to C to detect or prevent common programming errors such as buffer overruns and out-of-bounds memory accesses. Unnecessary? Check.

Unfortunately many software errors are directly related to the lack of bounds checking within the C/C++ language. I personally think the checked C library is a great addition to the toolbox.

True - I was struggling with that one, but finally dumped that one as it fit the blurb I wanted.
They could always go with Rust though, and have a better community (this seems to be little more than someone's thesis project)

I'll go with Checkered C, because I want to skip every other step when possible. Time is money, baby!

In a surprising new paper, scientists say they’ve nailed down a physical model for a warp drive, which flies in the face of what we’ve long thought about the crazy concept of warp speed travel: that it requires exotic, negative forces. "Engage"
"Where the existing paradigm uses negative energy—exotic matter that doesn’t exist and can’t be generated within our current understanding of the universe—this new concept uses floating bubbles of spacetime rather than floating ships in spacetime." Well all-righty then. We'll just take that 'Seriously' off of the headline, shall we?

Google Fonts now supports open source icons, starting with the Material Design icon set If everyone else changes their icons, will you do as well?
I told you today would be iconic.

A study found that Java developers backtracked every 6 minutes, meaning they reverted their code to a previous state "Oh, I believe in yesterday"
I've been debating including this one for a few weeks now (so it's not technically new). Apologies if it offends.

Because they are Java programmers.

A team of scientists from Tel-Aviv University have successfully given a robot the ability to hear sounds through the use of a dead locust’s ear. All I hear are crickets
OK, not directly related to our focus (other than the robotics angle), just sad for that locust that has to have a hearing aid now.

Sounds like the dead locust IS the hearing aid now.

Oh lord...
if we already fail to give proper / correct instructions to machines using languages explicitelly designed for it... what could go wrong, when we start "speaking" with machines if we can't even understand each other?
Additionally I wonder... will they get tinnitus or something like that?

And then send a copy of the transcription to the tech giant overlord so they can parse it and help you shop for something you didn't know you needed.
