Well, yeah. But I couldn’t think of other alternatives. I just stick with Paint.net for most things, and Gimp for weird image formats.

Microsoft is launching the first decentralized infrastructure implementation by a major tech company that is built directly on the bitcoin blockchain. Does the amount of security vary by the moment?

Microsoft is working to improve the reliability of its Azure infrastructure on multiple fronts, including via 'Project Tardigrade,' its effort to enable a cloud app to survive platform failure. In the future, our VMs will have VMs

But will it be as adorable as a tardigrade?

Not possible!

No name, specs, or other details available yet. But the screen is amazing. But all laptop screens fold. Oh, this one *unfolds* (and still works)
We know you like typing on a screen, so we made you a full-sized screen keyboard?

When the unhackable turns hackable you know there will be lots of noise. Case in point: The eyeDisk USB flash drive. "Unhackable" is an invitation

Microsoft's Azure Cloud talk seems boring and mundane, but it's actually where all of the action is. "I work so hard every day, with that old black cloud hanging over my head to drive my dreams away"

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

Over the past few years, a series of studies have come out showing that drinking coffee--in fact, drinking a lot of coffee--has significant health benefits. In fact, some suggested there could be big benefits in drinking copious amounts. A hint: if you can't hear individual heart beats, you may have gone too far

Ah, the joys of science by confirmation bias.

And exactly how big is a "cup" of coffee?
The measurement for a cup is 8 fluid ounces (~237 ml).
An American coffee cup is defined as 6 fluid ounces (177ml).
And then some marketing genius figured out that if you redefine that to 5 oz (739ml), you can get 12 cups out of a coffee maker instead of 10.
All I know is that the vessel I drink coffee out of can only be filled 4 times per pot.

Every other engineering discipline has built modern computational tools: for computer aided design, simulation and testing, and for manufacturing. But programming hasn’t progressed significantly since the 1970s. Maybe if we added fins and a racing stripe it might look new?
Or maybe all the failed visual languages should tell the author something?

Ah, another rant from the "it's old it must be bad" camp. Or is it the "change for the sake of change" camp? Or the "I suck at what I do so I'll demand something different" camp?

Yes, they should tell the author something.
