I set Boney M and Tony Orlando on a loop, then go home.

That can't be right.
We've already established that performance is improved by a loop of Boney M and Tony Orlando.

Last week, The Guardian reported that Google may shut down Google News in Europe if the “link tax” is implemented in a way that the company has to pay news publishers. I didn't think they needed an excuse to kill a service?

This will make a huge difference to my lifestyle.
How will I be able to live without news that's filtred through a Californian mega corp?

I didn't even know that they had that service.

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?

Quote: Julia Reda, an MEP, however, believes that this “link tax” will not be as extreme as the link tax implemented in Spain, where Google was required to pay publishers even if they didn’t want to be paid. “What we think is more likely is that publishers will have the choice to ask for Google to pay or not,” she told WIRED.
So, like in Germany, there will be 2 categories of news sites. Those that don't ask to be paid, and those that are invisible to the wider web because they're not indexed in any major search engine? What a waste of time. Any publisher that wants to commit traffic suicide today can do so by just setting a robots.txt file to have search spiders completely ignore them.

Combined, the explosions of software and hardware will give developers everywhere the tools they need to easily solve computing problems once thought impossible in a way that's cheap and efficient enough for every car, toy, and appliance manufacturer to take advantage. Because you all want to be trendy, right?

Sorry about that - when I read the article, and added it to the newsletter, it didn't have that "Subscribe to read" popup on it.

Unfortunately, I can't view the article without paying them. Perhaps because I'm in Thailand, and not using a VPN at the moment ?

I suspect it's a general paywalled site, no matter where you live. It looked like an interesting article too.
Could whoever sends out the news emails maybe double-check for paid sites please?

Or Microsoft executives.
Hey, Mr. CTO Scott, how about you pay attention to the sh*t your company is churning out instead of spewing it? (I'm only being partly sarcastic. Microsoft executives seem far more interested in pontificating that in paying attention to their own company.)

I wonder what triggers it, even with all of my crap blockers off I still don't have anything in the way of the article.

In the paper On buildings that compute. A proposal published this week, they have made proposals to integrate computation in various parts of a building, from cement and bricks to paint. Bringing new meaning to server crash

In ten years, they'll probably have a great, new idea, called "centralised computing", which would mean that they won't have to moronically install a complete computer in every brick.
Then, ten years later, they'll come up with the great, new idea of only incorporating these stripped-down computers -- let's call them "sensors", to save me from RSI) -- in a few bricks, which could be manufactured separately, even by companies that don't specialise in making house bricks (although why anyone should want anything other than a house-brick company to make computers, I don't know).
Then, ten years after that, they'll come up with the great, new idea to not put the sensors in house bricks at all, but instead let them look like sensors, so that people know what they're looking at.
At that point, it will finally dawn on them that they spent thirty years achieving absolutely nothing, so they will start looking for new great, new ideas, like incorporating phones into clothing[^].
