As I originally commented there (slightly reworded and expanded):
Looking at the menagerie of headers on that thing: Whatever marketing claims, it's clear that the real intent was to create something that could be used for early phase prototyping by anyone who wanted to make an x86 embedded system before spending money on a custom board design that had the minimal set of sensors/controllers/etc that they needed for their production system or that could be used for production runs small enough that a custom x86 embedded board would be more expensive than a kitchen sink model.
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?

The tour takes in patio views of the main campus, Andrews office, the Microsoft Build Lab’s and has the crew showing off some of the Windows NT 3.1, 4.0 and 2000 plaques and team photos. Loads of high-speed walking, but an interesting look inside one of the older buildings with history a'plenty

Defrag tools is generally a pretty good show for those doing trouble shooting.
The last few episodes was dealing with creating a debugger extension in C or C++ ,they still have more to go to complete the extension.

2015 might not be a big hiring year for IT as more companies focus resources on the cloud. But there is also some good news, including the latest on IT spending, according to a new report. Maybe dress up as a cloud for your next job interview?

One of the new features introduced during the Build conference is a converged Windows Runtime on Windows Phone 8.1, opening the way to “universal Windows apps.” In this post I’d like to share my first experience with universal Windows apps, their structure and possible future.

SDTimes has never published anything that wasn't clickbait drek. While their average quality might not be as abysmal as Infoworld; the latter publishes at least on article worth reading each week.
Their take on TDWTF;[^] but often more from a sysadmin perspective.

This is largely common sense already, but I still frequently run into people who don't know how dangerous this is or how to properly store user credentials. It should go without saying, but it's worth repeating

The issue that invited such comments from Torvalds is to do with the compiler apparently spilled a constant and incorrect stack red-zoning on x86-64 code generation. OK Linus, don't sugar coat it, what are you really trying to say?

It seems Linus forgot how open-source code development works...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Shouldn't he be fixing the code then? Make 2014 the year of Linus on a desktop?

Repositories, Adapters, MVC with all it cousins, SOLID, RTFM… As a (PHP) developer, those words are thrown at you from every corner of the web. And I hate it, I’ve had enough. Stop telling me what to do and show me those kittens instead. Opinion pieces - a Problem or a Solution
OR:
Variables - Saint or Sinner?
