Watch your step with Heads Up…If you’re walking while using your phone, get a reminder to focus on what’s around you…Use with caution. Heads Up doesn’t replace paying attention. I get this for free by not looking at my phone while walking

The company wants to know how people want to interact with information pulled from their medical records. People with that kind of rash also visited these websites
I may be overreacting here, but I can't think of a bigger "nope" involving the tech sector

No, you are not overreacting and no, you are not the only one thinking like that.
As if it were not enough with all what they already can infer from the "standard" things... a.k.a. web searches, the contents in gmail, what you do with your phone., where you go with your phone in the pocket...
Please don't allow them even to get close to medical records.

Boston Dynamics’ robot dog Spot exists in two realities. In one, it’s a terrifying harbinger of a dystopian future when robots hunt and kill humans. In the other, it’s the plaything of YouTubers who teach this robot quadruped to “piss beer” on command. Welcome to the future
And apologies to those offended by that word.
"Command", of course.

I can't see the teaching-learning part here... Writing code to open a tap at a specific position is nothing new and exiting...
As long as Spot can't learn to stop peeing inside the house (like any average dog) without altering it any way it is not learning and no intelligence...

Today we’re launching Am I FLoCed, a new site that will tell you whether your Chrome browser has been turned into a guinea pig for Federated Learning of Cohorts or FLoC, Google’s latest targeted advertising experiment. "The Eye of the Enemy is moving."

|
|
|
That actually motivates me to ditch Chrome.

|

Quote: FLoC takes most of your browsing history in Chrome, and analyzes it to assign you to a category or “cohort.” This identification is then sent to any website you visit that requests it, in essence telling them what kind of person Google thinks you are.
Save your time. A reptilian who'd like to see the principals at Google publicly caned.

This release is dedicated almost entirely to low-level performance features. They heard you like things faster

Yeah, they even had to get rid of the internal testers to get it out quicker.

How will a team ever know the best suited language, framework or tool to pick if they’ve never tried it out before? But there are plenty of "worst" tools

What an absurd question. If the team doesn't have enough experience with at least, say, the top 3 languages, frameworks, and tools, then they shouldn't be making any decisions about what language, framework, or tool (LFT) to use?
And nobody wants to acknowledge that there is actual thinking and analysis and valid reasoning that can be done regarding LFT's that results in weeding out 90%, at least, of the garbage that's out there.
Sadly though, that is the reality. I've worked on enough commercial products over the years which I discovered started off as the corporate equivalent of a bunch of geeks getting together in the basement and deciding they wanted to try some new fangled LFT because some unknown author of some obscure magazine was raving about it.
And the beat goes on...

The question of which <blah> is "best" was posed to the writer by an inquirer. And I thought his answer was good, along the lines of, "the best is what the team is familiar with, so long as it will do the job."

Microsoft turned 46 on April 4th and the tech giant’s social media team has decided to celebrate this milestone on Twitter by taking a look back at the rather long and amusing history of the company’s logos in a special thread. Bring back the Blibbet!

|
I don't now why... but it doesn't surprise me, that the company logos get a special thread...
