Microsoft’s “next generation” of Windows event is taking place later this week, on June 24th at 11AM ET. Thanks to a big Windows 11 leak, we already have a good idea of what to expect from Microsoft’s event. Yes, but can they tell me which programs will break after I install it?

It took the programming community a couple of decades to appreciate Python. But since the early 2010’s, it has been booming — and eventually surpassing C, C#, Java and JavaScript in popularity. Definitely not written by a recruiter.

Correlating the number of posts on a web site for solving programming problems is like measuring a man's popularity with women by how many of them kick him in the nuts when he makes advances.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
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?

On May 17, the City Council of Mesa, Arizona, approved the $800 million development of an enormous data center -- a warehouse filled with computers storing all of the photos, documents and other information we store “in the cloud” -- on an arid plot of land in the eastern part of the city. Kinda makes me want to stream less. Did I really need to watch Hemlock Grove? It's rhetorical -- no one did.

Earlier this year, a new support page appeared on support.Mozilla.org describing Sponsored Shortcuts (or Sponsored Tiles), "an experimental feature currently being tested by a small percentage of Firefox users out of a limited number of Firefox users. markets." The burner was hot the last time I touched it, but maybe I should try touching it again?

In 2002, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos issued a memo that has entered tech industry canon. The memo, known as the “API Mandate,” is generally perceived as being a statement about technology at Amazon, and is therefore widely admired by technologists and wholly ignored by executives. And now there's a petition to prevent Jeff Bezos from returning to Earth, so there's that.
