Weird one. The article cites lofty goals about breaking down the barriers between languages and libraries and so forth and then shows examples of what looks like a pretty generic functional language being used in a pretty generic kind of way. Unless I'm missing something huge, of course.
Why on Earth do they want to call it "Racket", I wonder?
98.4% of statistics are made up on the spot.

At IBM's Index developer conference in San Francisco, on Tuesday, The Register sat down with Big Blue's Java CTO John Duimovich to talk about the Java programming language, IBM, the cloud and other developer-oriented concerns. Instead, they should create a web-manifest file, compile their jar, sign the jar, make sure the appropriate JRE is installed...
...and a few more steps I'm sure I've blissfully forgotten.

Quote: "The notion that as a developer you'll have to learn Docker, Kubernetes, and 30 other things before you can even deploy an app is something I'd like to get rid of," he said.

I find one sentence in the article to be really true
Article says: In other words: a little more conversation and a little more action please.
But not only in AI topic, i.e. genetic experiments and other "revolutionary" technologies.
I am not against the progress, but I am afraid that something will explode in our nose.
I don't know whose quote is but...
Someone wrote (aprox): My biggest fear is that humanity is increasing knowledge at the cost or reducing wisdom

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I can see the code now.
string g = string.Empty;
If that was for the Ken doll then I guess it would be for the "eunuchs" operating system.

Most people aren't capable of writing anything more the trivial code. I believe that percentage is even higher for kids. Yes, you have child prodigies in every field, but they are the exception which proves the rule.
I also wonder if this is even good for kids' brain development. (We have a very weird society which extends childhood and accelerates it at the same time.)
PS. Another problem is that effective coding first requires development of logical thinking, independent of "code logic". I think it far more effective teaching kids general problem solving before heading down the narrower discipline of coding.

Totally agree with you.
The problem is... there is a big % of population who lack of any kind of logic.

The flaw in question relates to the SvcMoveFileInheritSecurity remote procedure call (RPC), which if exploited, can lead to an arbitrary file being assigned an arbitrary security descriptor, that can potentially lead to elevation of privilege. Not a dupe - honest

This is possible via a new feature added to recent versions of Microsoft Word that allows users to embed Internet videos inside Word files without having to inject the actual video file inside the document itself. Malware using Word documents?! Well, that's a first.

When I heard the iPhoneX was in trouble, my first thought was, oh crap, what does apple do for an encore if the main performance flopped? What will they call it? They will have to distance themselves from all this bad press. That may not be possible.
