To determine the tech-skill terms with the fastest growth in job seeker search activity, we examined two years of tech job search traffic. It's VB and Netware, right? Right?

A newly released report from Kintone found that no-code solutions and citizen developers are becoming more prevalent in the software development industry, with 76 percent of respondents reporting that at least a portion of their apps are developed outside of IT. Because everyone knows building apps faster means they're always better

We use those all the time.
You don't write any wasteful code or any code at all for that matter.
Instead just stand around and curse the thing til it's blue.

And that's where you get thousands of individual Access databases, Excel sheets, and these "apps" running around your enterprise and then sh*t yourself when you find out that's what's holding up your entire business. Oh, and no backups of them either! Good luck with that.

Bad journalists turn out articles much more rapidly than good journalists.
There may just be a pattern in there somewhere, if we just take a little time to find it ...

Google says Progressive Web Apps are the future of app-like webpages. I feel a disturbance in the web. It's like a billion souls just went, "What are Chrome Apps?"

What does Xamarin have to do with Chrome apps? It'll still work just fine for building Android/IOS apps; which AFAIK is the only thing people use it for.

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?

Batman’s work ethic and self-control are arguably his greatest superpowers—even more so than his stacks and stacks of cash. But what does it take to develop those characteristics in a person? According to a new story, it could be as simple as dressing up as Batman. Way ahead of them there. Nana-nana-nana #I'mBatman

Makes sense to me. I'm currently dressed as a drowned rat and any kind of dry costume (Batman or otherwise) would probably be raising my productivity right now.

However, Mozilla claims its actions are in line with the contract that was signed at the time, which includes a clause that stipulates Yahoo must continue to make payments to Mozilla until the contract end date, even if Yahoo is no longer used as the default search engine.
Looks like a candidate for worst contract ever signed by a major company. I'd suggest firing the lawyers who approved it; except they were probably among the first people Verizon sacked when it started cutting costs after eating Yahoo.

For a bunch of people providing free products (browser) and services (search engines) to us consumers, they sure like to spend waste their money.

A group led by a University of Maryland computer scientist has designed a new algorithm that incorporates artificial neural networks to simultaneously apply a wide range of fixes to corrupted digital images. Can it remove my thumb from those photos?
|
|
|
|

I don't know, but if you exactly mean as corrupted images fixing, probably Adobe Photoshop CS spot healing brush as well as the number of plug-ins such as Topaz Re-mask allow to do exactly the same, but not using AI neural networks.
Once, I've already used those tools to remove scratches from a family photo made an almost century ago.
But, anyway, it's rather interesting news. Thanks.
