Duke University researchers have developed an AI tool that can turn blurry, unrecognizable pictures of people's faces into eerily convincing computer-generated portraits, in finer detail than ever before. "Enhance!"

Quote: The system cannot be used to identify people, the researchers say: It won't turn an out-of-focus, unrecognizable photo from a security camera into a crystal clear image of a real person. Rather, it is capable of generating new faces that don't exist, but look plausibly real.
Perfect for identifying non-existent criminals.

The three-way comparison operator <=> is often just called spaceship operator. The spaceship operator determines for two values A and B whether A < B, A = B, or A > B. I'd like to report a UFO in my code

Since the Windows 10 Creators Update in 2017 Microsoft offered a Fresh Start feature in Windows Security which allowed users to re-install Windows 10 while keeping your data intact. I'm starting to think the Win10 developers need a fresh start

No you aren't.
Besides the ones that should be hitting the head against the desk (and pretty hard by the way) are they at Microsoft.

Fed up with the DRM in a General Electric refrigerator that pushed the owner to buy expensive manufacturer-approved replacement water filters, an anonymous hacker went to the trouble of buying a domain name and setting up a website at gefiltergate.com to pen a screed about appliance digital rights restriction management (DRM) and how to bypass it.

Thanks to "internet of things" companies that prioritized profits over consumer privacy and the safety of the internet, we're now facing a security and privacy dumpster fire that many experts believe will, sooner or later, result in even bigger security and privacy headaches than we're seeing today. Contains 23% of the daily requirement of WTF?! and 50% of 'you're kidding'?

Microsoft’s explanation of Project Reunion was not clear to many developers. Developers had doubts about whether Project Reunion is an application model like UWP or is it a new packaging or isolation model. "Come together right now"

The big question is... which developers needed the explanation?
Seeing how things go lately in M$ I think it could be the internal ones
