Administrative Law Judge Theodore Essex of the U.S. International Trade Commission ruled on Monday that Nokia and Microsoft Mobile products infringed two patents held by R&D company InterDigital. Essex's decision is preliminary and will be reviewed by the full commission, which is expected to announce its final ruling on Aug. 28. The final ruling could lead to a ban on importing the phones into the U.S.

The same ol' bugs, vulnerabilities and hacks keep cropping up. Can an automated approach or a new perspective finally do what developers can't?

If people actually gave an elephant about security, Windows would be dead, Linux never would've gone beyond one kids toy project, some guy named Theo would wear the god developers halo, and OpenBSD would rule the world. Meanwhile in the real world, it isn't, it did, it will never happen, the populizer of the fondle slab's ghost is anointed, and we'll be pwnd from now to eternity.

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?

Mashape, the increasingly popular management platform and marketplace for APIs, today open-sourced one of the core technologies that power its service. The platform, called Kong, allows Mashape to power the API requests of the more than 140,000 developers
So if Kong is the API platform, what's supposed to be the Empire State Building?

slide 4:
"What I do not want to try to do"
- Have C++ compete with every other language by adding as many as possible of their features
- Increase the complexity of C++ use for the 99% for the benefit of the 1% (us and our best friends)

Which is why I can't understand why they've been doing it.

Which is what they're getting by jamming not just one but dozens of kitchen sinks into a language that's already far too huge for mere mortals to comprehend more than a tiny sliver of it.

Rust’s quest for world domination was never destined to happen overnight, so Rust needs to be able to interoperate with the existing world just as easily as it talks to itself. I think I've heard this one before

Sadly, the story is quite bad for Rust on Windows. It requires MinGW, fails to link properly to libraries created with MSVC and the package manager (Cargo) keeps dragging in FFI packages without regard to platform - frequently failing to work on Windows.
I had a lot of hope for Rust, but it seems like we'll have to wait for at least V2 for the Windows development story to be anything but a massive pain.
The dependency on MinGW or similar is a particular pain point for me, as my experience is that many open source libraries are a nightmare to get running properly.

For Microsoft, 2015 is a year of adjustment. While the software giant focuses its efforts across multiple platforms, Windows is gearing up for big changes. I'm just wondering if there are any surprises left
