Microsoft Research published a report that signals that the company is looking for ways that it could use its cloud expertise to create a unique cloud gaming platform at some point in the future. It discusses DeLorean, a “speculative execution engine” that makes it possible to delivery seemingly lag-free gameplay from the cloud despite the myriad sources of network latency between Microsoft’s Azure servers and a player’s device. "Wait a minute Doc, uh, are you telling me you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?"

Specifically, we are looking to developers building hybrid apps using Apache Cordova and/or developers building web apps, to provide feedback on their experiences through our anonymous survey.

A reliable source tells us that Microsoft will release Windows RT devices that only contain Metro and from which Microsoft has removed the desktop interface. Currently Windows RT, running on ARM CPUs, contain both a Metro mode and a desktop mode just like Windows 8.1 PCs. "We will streamline the next version of Windows from three operating systems into one single converged operating system for screens of all sizes" (or not)

Several reports from usually reliable Windows watchers say Microsoft is poised to unveil Windows 9 at the end of September. The new OS will mark the return of the Start menu, the ability to run Metro apps inside desktop windows, and other PC-friendly tweaks. The timing makes ton of sense, in spite of Windows 8's short run. Why? Because Windows 7. "Windows 7 PCs will say buh-bye at the end of October." (Sort of)

As usual, Wally[^] nails it.
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?

Remember having said that, the next time a new programming language is announced.
And remember these examples:
- C#, because we really need another programming language.
- Java, because there's a world shortage of programming languages.
