As teams are pressured to release software more rapidly, more and more aspects of software development are being forced to “shift left,” moving up earlier in the development lifecycle. Because it's faster than multiplication?

In what amounts to be an amazingly nefarious bit of malware, hackers have created an exploit that watches 2.3 million high-value crypto wallets and replaces the addresses in the Windows clipboard with an address associated with the hackers. 3BYpmdzASG7S6WrpmrnzJCX3y8kduF6Kmc Hmm.

Employees working for hundreds of software developers are reading the private messages of Gmail users, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday. They're too lazy to do it themselves now?

That would be so extremely cool; because it means they're in direct violation of the European rules!

Perfect - I started working 6 years ago in a place that uses 1998 technology. The premise was to change but... well let's say it's going SLOW. Mostly due to management and our business model but still.

Go ahead and have that cup of coffee, maybe even several more. New research shows it may boost chances for a longer life, even for those who down at least eight cups daily. If I keep drinking it, will I live forever?

With the amount of coffee I imbibed in the past 14 years I must be good for a couple of centuries.

In Visual Studio 2017 release 15.8 Preview 3 we’re announcing support for Just My Code stepping for C++. In addition to previously supported callstack filtering, the Visual Studio debugger now also supports stepping over non-user-code. Because you know the library code is always bug-free

Snark aside, if you've ever tried to step through a call to a lambda or construction of a shared_ptr, you know why this exists.

Fair enough, but I'm paid by the pound of snark, and baby needs a new pair of shoes!

Microsoft last week released a new Windows 10 preview build for Insiders and it comes with a message within the Snipping Tool revealing that the app would go away soon. Oh, praise the Redmondites (there is a built-in snipping tool?)

We haven’t heard many specifics about Google’s video game plans, but what we have heard is that it’s a three-pronged approach: 1) Some sort of streaming platform, 2) some sort of hardware, and 3) an attempt to bring game developers under the Google umbrella, whether through aggressive recruiting or even major acquisitions. Google Doodles: now in hardware!
Because when you think "gaming", think of the company that brought you the "Do you feel lucky?" button.

We’ve heard requests from several customers asking to make it easier to move their user data into OneDrive. To have a single button that they could push that would move content from the Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders to OneDrive. Don't you want to help the hackers access all your stuff more easily?

For me, the headache is when OneDrive manages your pictures as a photo album, it tries to organize it for you, making a mess in the process. Fortunately, unlike Google Drive which is FAR worse in this regard, you can maintain pictures as a separate folder and OneDrive leaves it alone.

How do we get a development team to function closer to our preferences, and still let people operate as self-determinate humans? "Here in Cloud Cuckoo Land, there are no rules: There's no government, no baby sitters, no bedtimes, no frowny faces, no bushy mustaches, and no negativity of any kind."

Brave, a lesser known but perfectly fine browser, launched a new version today that features a private browsing mode that automatically starts inside a Tor session. So, it only goes to the Tor.com website?
