As important as they are, software and network security seem so often ignored. Every month I hear about a data security breach even more egregious than the last. What's going wrong? You only have to be wrong once, they only need to be right once

I've decided to check the first commercial version of Cfront, released in October, 1983 as it's this version that turned 30 this year. Never look at your old code. That way only leads to madness (and sadness).

Anyway, C++ is a write only language.

I can't be the only one who read this and instantly thought: "Great, a device from Microsoft that will listen to everything I say and offer helpful suggestions like 'It looks like you are trying to bake a cake, here are some places that sell industrial adhesive.' or 'It sounds like you are trying to get out of a traffic ticket. Here are some lawyers in your area.'"
If it has googly eyes, I'm claiming SkyNet.

Just what we need, the return of clippy!
(As an example of the rule that any internet search will eventually turn of NSFW material, searching for Clippy managed to find "Conquered by Clippy, an erotic short story". The mind just boggles).

Facebook's chief technical officer, Mike Schroepfer, says that when the company thinks about where it wants to be by 2025, it aims to "effectively build a teleporter."
"Facebook wants to build a device that allows you to be anywhere you want, with anyone, regardless of geographic boundaries," Schroepfer added at a press event on Tuesday morning before his appearance at the Dublin Web Summit. [^]
You gotta understand that Mike is just plain bored counting his stock options and planning new ways to hi-jack and monetize Facebook users' personal data and private communications.

Wasn't that Microsoft's tag line (years ago)?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Hi Daniel, I believe Ms's tag-line used the word "go" rather than "be."

The vast majority of websites you visit are sending your data to third-party sources, usually without your permission or knowledge. That’s not exactly breaking news, but the sheer scale and ubiquity of that leakage might be. "Be seeing you"

Codeproject.com[^] is #1146 globally. It's been nice knowing you; I hope wherever you go from here works out well for you. 
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 UK government today published a draft version of the Investigatory Powers Bill setting out a framework for new surveillance powers. Among the proposed measures is a requirement for ISPs to keep a record of every website their customers visit for 12 months. UK only (for now), but I don't know if I want the government to know how often I visit CP
