I would hope so too, but that's the way they worded it on the FDA site. I'll more properly grammaticify it.

Oracle to ship bugs in March, along with Java 8.

Do you know that the article link points to a site that tries to run the "Microsoft Update" ActiveX control?
While in theory that could be perfectly safe, it also sounds like a dandy attack vector to me .

I did not, sorry (I tend to use Chrome/Firefox all the time). Sorry about that, I'll avoid that source in the future.

No problem. As I'm still using IE8 here under XP (don't ask), I thought it entirely possible it's one of those things.

Google is making yet another big business acquisition and this time it's actually hyping up the deal in a press release. Today, the company announced it will buy Nest Labs for $3.2 billion in cash, with the deal expected to close sometime in the next few months if it is approved by U.S. regulators. Now even your thermostat will be tattling on you

That has been the plan all along.

I have one of their thermostats, and I'm pretty happy with it. I can only hope that Google continues to support the vision that Nest puts into their product line.

I never considered using smoke alarm's as limbs. Wouldn't that make it difficult to move about and manipulate things?

Yes, but considering how cool the Nest stuff is I'd feel like a futuristic robot anyway!

Rumors are flying that Microsoft is going to do a lot more than just bring back the Start button in the next Windows version. A lot of smart people are saying that it will abandon its Metro interface on laptops and desktops. It took long enough. Lovely to look at doesn't mean lovely to hold

Your own scripts get injected into black box processes to execute custom debugging logic. Hook any function, spy on crypto APIs or trace private application code, no source code needed! Yeah. What's the worst thing that could happen?

Microsoft announced today that it will partner with GoDaddy to bring Office 365 services to small businesses owners more easily. GoDaddy will offer users the option to choose one of three Office 365 plans that will be connected to their domain name. Users in the US and Canada will gain access to these plans first, and over the next three months the plans will expand globally. It's the one stop shop for Mom and Pop

Every category tracked by Flurry grew in use over the past year. Utilities and productivity apps rose by 149 percent, music and entertainment apps by 78 percent, and games by 66 percent. But the biggest leap was achieved by messaging and social apps, which climbed by 203 percent, the firm said in a blog post Monday. Fun fact: 2 is 100% more than 1

If the word on the street is that Microsoft is currently aiming for a Windows 9 release date of April 2015, this gives the company a little over a year to fix Windows. So what does Microsoft need to do to fix Windows? "I will tell you something else, King, which may be a surprise for you. It will not happen for hundreds of years, but both of us are to come back."
