Are you trying to learn to code? Or perhaps you're an educator or a student, or you know someone who us? Sometimes it's intimidating when you consider all the things to install and run to get started. Come to the Dark Side - we have LINQ

As Apple CEO Tim Cook prepared to leave the stand on Friday afternoon on the 15th and final day of courtroom testimony, Gonzalez Rogers took nearly 10 minutes — the longest singular line of questioning she's put to a witness in the trial — to grill Cook about both the business model of the App Store and the very nature of its relationship with developers. Maybe she just wanted to cook Tim?

I recently learned you could do UI development in PowerShell. Seems like just as good of an idea.

Sad how companies must now offer courses that should have been required freshman college courses for, well, probably everyone, regardless of their to-be-declared major.

Clear writing is (or should be) a skill taught in high school at the latest.

2021 is a big year for Windows. Even without Windows 10X, Microsoft has a lot of plans for the Windows platform thanks to Sun Valley and its renewed interest in bringing OS innovation to market. "These go to eleven."

Apparently, it's so "we" can have a new logo and icons. Was this written by Nadella?

Except for the minor concern that changing the number would get a huge number of nitwits up in arms about forced upgrades in a way that the current semi-annual mega servicepacks don't. 
All the other stuff they can just keep jamming into the regular W10 upgrades, just like they have with all the other efFluent icons over the years. 💩
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

With the use of silicon in semiconductor manufacturing approaching its limits in recent years, chipmakers are constantly looking for new materials that will allow them to keep shrinking their manufacturing processes, which in turn will enable them to pack more transistors in the same area.

Tardigrades can survive extreme conditions, and scientists wanted to know if they could survive the impact after a trip between planets. Oh sure, that's what they *say* they were testing
They really just like abusing tardigrades.

No, they want to send them back to where they came from. Too creepy to be from here.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Sadly, it doesn’t matter how suited to the job a language is, how much fun it is to program in, or how much you learn along the way. It's not, "can I get paid to use it?"

Very true. Many developers (and their managers) seem to forget that the total cost of software includes maintenance of the software.

Facebook recently adopted a new language like this.
Quote: Mononoke served as a great test bed because it was naturally fairly isolated from other Facebook systems. As long as Mononoke could use the Mercurial protocol to speak with client services and the Thrift protocol to communicate with some storage systems, choosing Rust wouldn’t affect anything outside of the Source Control team’s work.
and then
Quote: With Mononoke as evidence that it was viable and lived up to its claims, over time, other projects considered and adopted Rust as well. At first, these were typically developer tooling projects that didn’t need to integrate with the broader service infrastructure, or small services/daemons that could do their work with just a few handwritten wrappers around some C++ client libraries.

If you are going to cause a major upheaval by introducing a new language for all your coding, starting small is the way to do it. Even so, it is a very high risk process, often with lower ROI than expected.
