That's exactly right. They will come up with ways to save power and then others will come along and figure out how to utilize that saving for their own purposes.

You should show this to Chris. He is in love with the new surface, I'm sure this will be another great feature to add to the lack of USB C.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Microsoft announced a new feature for Windows 10 today that will let Android phone users view and use any app on their device from a Windows desktop. I guess this is more proof a new Windows Phone isn't coming soon
But they will likely try again as soon as they get a new VP.

I'm pretty sure that Microsoft announced the ability to run Android apps on Windows 10 a couple of years ago and then pulled it.

This feature will probably go EOL at the end of February 2019...

The PyTorch 1.0 release candidate introduces Torch Script, a Python subset that can be JIT-compiled into C++ or other high-speed code "Some men just want to watch the world burn."
But I thought Python had, "near C speeds"?

So, why is Rust so tempting? Let’s explore the high points of this C-like language and understand the variety of features that make it interesting and an awesome language to learn. Looks to the right, looks to the left. No rust in sight.

It's approximately 100% once you correct the stats for the programmers who aren't real programmers because they're not learning Rust.

While I am a fan of Rust - I think it provides a platform for native coding that avoids many of the pitfalls of C and C++, and I really hope it gains traction, I am distinctly not a fan of Packt. From all accounts, they rush "books" out with little or no attention to detail - a hands-off editing approach, and not technical oversight.
Their have been a couple of threads on r/rust that detail the issues with their books, and I have seen similar comments raised elsewhere. In summary, unless one of their books is recommended, probably best avoided.
Edit: Here is one such thread: [Meta] Beware of books published by Packt: low quality content and very obviously unreviewed : rust

I stopped reading after the first sentence.
Poorly researched article. false information, and missleading.
Got me with the click bait title.
"almost every" - so what, above 50%? Lets look closer.
"almost 80% of respondents" - Oh wow, that is high, okay. But there is more to the sentence.
"loved using or wanted to develop with the Rust language" - Uhm, lets check the survey linked.
The Loved Dreaded and Wanted chart is split to 3 data points
"78.9% Loved rust" - And look at that statement meaning:
"% of developers who are developing with the language"
Has it clicked yet, this is a classic Percentage miss understanding.
No number indicating how many people are programming in RUST, or even better using it in production. (I quickly scanned the survey so please do correct me)
Rust does not appear on the list for Wanted (top 20 or something).
I have pointed out before the link of Apple saying they had MEGA XXXX % growth from last year, and android and microsoft only little % growth.
I will take 1% growth of a 1 billion total units (10 million growth) over 100% growth of a 2 Million total (+1 million unit growth)
The more developers you have, the more likely they will find something to dread with it. That does not mean they are running for the hills. 1 bad mark is worth 10 positive marks. That bad mark makes them more likly to tick the dreaded checkbox over the like box.
20+ Million Java/C/C++/VBA vs 10,000 PRO rust developers.
there, that made me feel better. I might give the article a second try, and see you in a few minutes when the second sentence has something to drag through the ditch.

I wouldn't recommend going further, as someone who thinks Rust shows great promise, there are better articles easily available, and the material on rustlang.org is great.

Yesterday, a group of European information security researchers announced that they have discovered a vulnerability in Intel’s Management Engine (Intel ME) INTEL-SA-00086. They say that the root of this problem is an undocumented Intel ME mode, specifically known as the Manufacturing Mode. I was confused thinking this was a Windows ME story
