And how do employers deal with that?
According to heise.de (see http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Fachkraefte-gesucht-Unternehmen-vergeben-viele-Chancen-2444021.html[^]), they rather prefer a less-qualified candidate over an "expensive" highly-qualified candidate.Quote: Doch bei dem Gehalt zeigen sich die meisten Unternehmen wenig flexibel. Sie sind eher bereit, bei der Qualifikation Abstriche zu machen, als bei der Bezahlung Kompromisse einzugehen, so das Ergebnis des IAB-Betriebspanels 2013 mit 16 000 befragten Betrieben. Danach machen etwa die Hälfte Kompromisse bei der Qualifikation, aber nur 21 Prozent bei der Bezahlung
Methinks there's a lack of cheap code monkeys, not of qualified experts. And with the code monkeys, there is no need to invest into sophisticted expensive tools either. Problem solved.

Since enabling community contributions to the compiler in April, then opening up the F# Visual Studio stack in June, the F# language and Visual F# IDE tooling stack has been developed in full partnership with the open source developer community. Don't know how I could have possibly missed this yesterday
Ah well, at least there is still some love for F# in Redmond

We are happy to work closely with Microsoft to make sure that .NET developers can build native apps for every device on the planet. Just buy them already.

Yes, before we have to make our own open source alternative

It would be interesting to find out if there has been any adoption of Xamarin by the non .NET community i.e. have any Java developers adopted Xamarin as a cross-platform strategy? I think when this happens we'll maybe see an acquisition being made.
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

When the eventual robot overlords of Earth write their history books, many chapters will be dedicated to the arrogance and folly of humankind teaching robots the best ways to take over the planet. It's like they want them to win, or something.

Yeah but could it do it without that cord shoved up it's butt?

I've seen Big Dog before, pretty cool. I kept expecting the Karate one to do something other than in slomo? It's got a long way to go if they want it to mimic Chuck, even at his age he would kick the crap out of that thing.

Quote: At the moment, Atlas has not actually jumped and performed the kick, but it perfectly mimics the crane-like intro stance. Sure, the kick itself may have always looked cheesy — even back in 1984 — but the mere act of being able to set up for it proves that Atlas has phenomenal balance for both humanoid robots and humans alike.
When did ExtremeTech start posting clickbait headlines. 
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?

This nonsense makes me want to buy a couple cattle prods, rip them apart and make some really funky gauntlets out of them.
What do you suppose a charge like that would do to that thing?

In partnership with qwikLABS, NVIDIA has made the hands-on content we use to train thousands of developers at the Supercomputing Conference and the GPU Technology Conference online and accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. Kind of special purpose, but good news for those who need it, I guess

In the blog post about the release of Windows 10 Preview Build 9879, Microsoft announced that they will be releasing ISOs for the Windows 10 Preview Builds in the future. Yay?
|

|

Yay, but apparently only for the slow ring, so people who are on the fast upgrade lane will still get only ESD files. I guess it's OK since there are ways to make an ISO out of those that you can use for clean installing. Or just use the enterprise edition, for which updated ISOs are available right now.

Amazon paraded out a cavalcade of new products and services at its AWS re:Invent conference in Las Vegas today, unveiling several new code-management and deployment tools, the Amazon Aurora MySQL database engine, and more.

Starts at $0.29/hour. That's $208.80/month; meaning it's only potentially a cost saver if you're currently running your DB on an extra large VPS or a dedicated server....
If you could only bring it online once/day and replicate in less than an hour, it might make a reasonable disaster recovery option if you're using MySQL. (In before: "MySQL is a disaster.")
