And if everything is to live in the cloud, who's going to need a Windows Server OS?

I'm hoping they're asking that question inside the Fish Shoppe.
Doubt they'll come up with a reasonable answer though (other than "Well, you can't get support for Windows Server 2003 anymore. You might as well upgrade.")

A year into his tenure, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has now joined both of his predecessors, Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates, in achieving the dubious distinction of issuing spectacularly unlikely predictions. Nowhere on the same scale, but it's a start

You know what technology is really old and outmoded?
Wheels!
I am making my prediction here: By the end of 2015 wheels will no longer be used.
Hovering is much easier on mechanical systems and is the future of transportation so I'm calling it now.

The vast Wheel Party has tried to snuff this technology for years, but they can't keep it down any longer.
Hover is here to stay!!!

Reports that new Samsung TVs can capture personal information with their voice recognition feature has sparked concern about what critics perceive as digital spying by so-called smart devices. I'm betting you think I'm going to put some 1984 quote here, aren't you?
I know. Because I'm WATCHING you RIGHT NOW

I don't have a problem with them trying... as long as I can buy a TV without it.
I hope my current TV lasts long, it is the last model before mics and webcams.
Besides... I prefer the remote, at least I have an excuse to search for it under the blankets

We have just released the code formatting tool we use to automatically format our code to the prescribed coding guidelines. This tool is based on Roslyn and will work on any C# project. K&R FTW

It goes without saying that all the engineers at Redmond are putting in long hours to bring you technical previews that have already been released, but there is light at the end of the tunnel for the final build. Just in time for summer holidays

... but don't want to buy into the Apple ecosystem then rejoice. You can now write Swift for .NET, Cocoa, Java and Android. This[^] looks pretty interesting.

Why not? Internet jokes would seem to suggest that everyone else has (not that I would believe such a scurrilous rumour).

After months of work, a major milestone has been reached for Java’s JDK repository, which now builds warning-free – that’s a whopping several thousand warnings being taken care of. /golfclap

Which, if the developers had taken care of them as they happened, it wouldn't be something to write home about. But noooo....now it's like some sort of "ooh, look at how awesome we are" instead of "you dumb f***s, you should have fixed these in the first place."
And:
the clearing of this technical debt will now eliminate the possibility of bugs hiding inside the flagged code.
Yeah. You know what happens when you touch thousands of places in the code? You introduce bugs.
