So, you've got a new programming language huh? And just how is that going to make my life better??
Oh, you have multiple paradigms? That's cool. That doesn't answer my question though...

This application is an homage to Gregory Yob's BASIC classic, Hunt the Wumpus<\i>
Well, cool, someone else who knew Gregory Yob or at least knew of him.

For the first time ever Google is now processing an average of one million removal requests per day. The new record follows an upward trend with copyright holders reporting more and more allegedly infringing search results in an effort to deter piracy. Well, at this rate, the piracy problem will be solved... never

At this rate?
At any rate, piracy thing can never be solved. You know what, when Microsoft released Windows 8, they requested Google to remove those "Free Windows 8|7 download" kind of links, but Google ignored the request. I believe Google is doing so, because of the YouTube music key leakage. Sometimes I really think Google is selfish.

I am sure there are at least 1 million legends creating at least 10 links each per day. Which is higher?

Want to prove you've got the chops for a Linux job? The Linux Foundation is introducing the proof you'll need with new certifications. Haven't we moved past certifications?

As he steps down from Microsoft's board, here's a look back at some of his most memorable quotes. I am going to miss him

Good riddance. Bring the other guy back.

While I agree 'the other guy' was (exponentially) better as CEO, he was no where as good at really silly, mind-bogglingly stupid quotes.

Yeah, that one's been disputed for a while. But please: even if he did say that: monkey dance[^]. C'mon, no contest.

Let's not forget the physical demands. Is Billionaire Bill really in good enough shape to take on the pivotal task of throwing chairs at his executives? Personally, I don't think he's up to it.

True that, but it doesn't look like Satya has the guns for it either.

Bringing application security natively into the JVM can provide stronger, faster, more accurate protection against dangerous vulnerabilities. OK-I'm just tossing this out there-what if the code ran in a secure environment that couldn't access the 'real' computer?

Mars, the Red Planet, may seem beyond reach in this view from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope in 2003. But the space company Uwingu has launched a "Beam Me to Mars" project to let the public send messages to the Red Planet in order to raise funds for space exploration.

Microsoft has announced that they have released the Visual Studio '14' CTP 3 for download and also an early build of the .NET Framework vNext. Are these things coming faster, or is it just me?
|
|
|
|

Well, concerning the .NET Framework it's not really a "vNext", no 5.0, just another .NET 4.0 in-place upgrade (4.5.3?) with RyuJIT and stuff. VS on the other hand is getting over the top and skips an entire major version (what happened to Visual Studio 13?), a move I never expected from DevDiv given they did a v13 of the C++ compiler.
The things are coming faster, but at the same time the packages are getting smaller. So, nothing really changed.

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

Last week, I stated that software is hard to develop. This week, I would like to concentrate on two of the reasons why. Did you write tests for your test code?
