Quote: Blackadder: Right Baldrick, let's try again shall we? This is called adding. If I have two beans, and then I add two more beans, what do I have?
Baldrick: Some beans.
Blackadder: Yes... and no. Let's try again shall we? I have two beans, then I add two more beans. What does that make?
Baldrick: A very small casserole.
Blackadder: Baldrick, the ape creatures of the Indus have mastered this. Now try again. One, two, three, four. So how many are there?
Baldrick: Three.
Blackadder: What?
Baldrick: ...and that one.
Blackadder: Three and that one. So if I add that one to the three what will I have?
Baldrick: Oh! Some beans.
Blackadder: Yes. To you Baldrick, the Renaissance was just something that happened to other people, wasn't it?
"These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined."

Microsoft wants you to stop using the UWP Mail app and switch to the new Outlook as soon as possible, but there’s a catch – the new Outlook doesn’t work offline properly. Like it did in Outlook 97? (and every version since - except the current, of course)

Researchers are ringing the alarm bells, warning that companies like OpenAI and Google are rapidly running out of human-written training data for their AI models. But if we continue to get dumber, won't they appear smarter in comparison?

Following massive customer pushback after it announced the new AI-powered Recall for Copilot+ PCs last month, Microsoft says it will update the feature to be more secure and require customers to opt in to enable it. Just a little bit of complaining is all it takes to do what they should have done in the first place
Of course "in the first place" should have been not bothering to create the feature, but what are you going to do?

With PoC code available and active Internet scans, speed is of the essence. Good thing no one relies on that language anymore
Just 40% of the internet or something like that

According to the article, this bug only affects PHP on Windows, so I suspect the real fraction is rather lower. It also seems to require certain East Asian locales to be active.

Hurl is a language created for one purpose: to explore a language based around exception handling as the only control flow. Here is an exception to the idea that we could always use one more language

If it has a depravity keyword, catching into that could be fun!

What sets CompCert C apart from any other production compiler, is that it is formally verified, using machine-assisted mathematical proofs, to be exempt from miscompilation issues. "A proof is a proof. What kind of a proof? It's a proof. A proof is a proof. And when you have a good proof, it's because it's proven."
Bless you, Jean Chrétien. For your proven wisdom.

And those who can't do, teach.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

And those who can't teach, go into the government.
