I wish it was April Fool's day. This headlines just screams practical joke designed to get thousands of people to yell at their computers.

No need for a practical joke to get people to yell at their computers.
We practically scream at our computers each time our programs hang, produce incorrect results or just plain behave in an ornery manner!

A side project from Google engineers emulates the operation of a superfast, but very, very different, type of computer. You can only know the output of the program, or how long it took to run, not both.

Will it answer "42" before you even ask the question? Or will it take 7.5 million years?
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

That's cheating - you're asking for both answers.
But it might give us the design for the next computer.

Customer satisfaction with Microsoft's software -- primarily Windows, but also Office -- climbed slightly in the last year, illustrating that whatever misgivings customers have over Windows 8 has not reached the level of frustration seen years ago with the widely-ridiculed Windows Vista, a national survey said today. "She needs him, yeah, that's why she'll be back again. Can't find a better man"

Google’s wireless ambitions may be taking a very business-like turn. According to The Information, Google plans to start selling cheap high-performance Wi-Fi gear to small businesses to help it build a giant wireless network. "I am the eye in the sky, looking at you"
(and the next line in that song is also on the planning board, I'm sure)

It’s much easier to improve something if you can measure it. With Dart SDK 1.4, we are announcing Observatory: a comprehensive set of tools for understanding, measuring, and improving your Dart code. Now, with debugging!
OK, it's more than just a debugger. You try to be funny twelve times every day.

IT job site Dice.com says that by a wide margin, the top search by employers is for Java/J2EE It's the new COBOL

Of course. Less and less Java programmers out there, but the Java code-base still huge and need to be maintained...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Most of the searches are because Java programmers are good targets for "male enhancement" advertising.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

You might be on to something. I was reading the other day about how the 419 scams are poorly written (or that they don't need to be written well) partly as a selection mechanism: only people foolish enough to believe an email that poorly written could be coming from a lawyer would fall for the scam.
Perhaps the same might be said about Java programmers.

Android development is also Java. Pretty sure Android will become an important operating system not only for mobile devices.

Just the out-of-the-box part. I do Android with JavaScript/HTML and/or C#...

Not on the subject - I'm a strong believer of WEB interface and done native Android just for learning...
However if I got the time I may write about Intel XDK - I think it's a great tool that most do not know about...

How about Moscrif? Have you tried it?

No. Has it something that Intel XDK has no?

Dunno. Haven't tried. I'm not yet through with learning in C#, so I don't any have clues on Android Development platforms yet.

If you done with your C# study, you may look into Xamarin's .NET based development tools for Andriod (but beware - not all tools are free there)...

Eclipse is good I do PHP with it, but for Android it means Java!

Information Overload! 
I'll take note on all of that.
And just in case I get stuck, I know who to ask.

BURN Eclipse.
Sorry for the shouting, but from my experience Eclipse is one of the worst FUBAR IDEs there are.
The "normal" Eclipse may be O.K., but not suitable for anything else than pure Java Development.
I resort with Visual Studio for any .Net Stuff, Android Studio for any Android Stuff and the Creator IDE (on Linux) for the Qt/C++ work I do.
There is an IDE that fits best for a specific environment, and Eclipse fails at trying to be just okay for everything.
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.
